Celebrate your freedom. Your fifth freedom.
Nope, that is not Ireland, but it sure looks like it, doesn't it? The only thing that is missing is cows . . . and people. Welcome to Dubai's World Islands project. Designed by Creative Kingdom Dubai, the development is an area that covers 6 by 9 kilometres (3.7 by 5.6 mi)…
No matter where you go, there you are.
Bicycling is life with the volume turned up.
You can go a long way befire you leave London.
It’s Tim up north, not grim. No, not grim at all.
We're branching off a bit here from the "normal" posts that you typically see on our site. This essay is not purely about travel, even though travel will, indeed show its face soon enough. Let's set a marker that music is a big deal for us, as we assume it is for you.…
Meet Bangkok Airways. You can check out any time you’d like, but you can never leave. You won’t want to!
Berat: that’s where it’s at. Do something different.
Pity the poor British people who, while having a lovely, historic and diverse place to live, also have the agonizing problem of deciding which sunny location they should turn to in order to rent or purchase a sunny spot to escape the grey and unpleasant weather that is a major part of their everyday lives.…
We recently stumbled upon this video from ohAFRO and were rather taken aback. Firstly, the title is rather, shall we say, straightforward. Nothing wrong with that, we guess. But we still thought it was a wee bit brazen. Nonetheless, the channel posted it on YouTube, so they must know what they're…
In this post, we focus on Europe and more specifically, the UK. We write about these places a lot simply because the UK and Europe are top travel locations. (For reference here, England is a country that is part of the United Kingdom, UK.) It shares land borders with Wales to…
As ever, we here at Matouring are, at heart, techno-geeks. We love the latest materials and manufacturing techniques, and the sheer cleverness of the builders and designers who are creating some of the most unfathomable products for all of us to behold and, soon, to enjoy. We may not see the fruits of…
Do we ever run out of things to do in Europe? No, not likely. Even when you have haunted the same tourist traps over and over again, you'll walk around the corner and a new and delightful activity will jump out into your path. And so many of these things to do…
For many decades, hunting wild animals was "the thing to do" if you considered yourself as a "sportsman." Never mind that dozens of species were dying out because of the "sport." Luckily, many more forward thinking people realised that hunting was not sustainable. The most significant criticism revolved around the impact on…
Perusing YouTube today, we landed on a video about the UK hotel chain Britannia hotels. After a little digging, we discovered that there were quite a few reviews, and - at least as the YouTube reviews went, things were not looking good. In fact, some of what was discovered by the YouTube sleuths, the…
Join us, again, as we venture into the leafy English countryside. This post focuses on more of the southern climes of the UK, way down past London and into the "leafy" parts as its known. There are dozens of lovely little villages for you to explore, but one that we like very much…
As ever, we plumb the heights and the depths of the internet everyday to find content to entertain you (and us.) But we always look for the unusual. So, even though we are of Welsh stock and have been there many, many many times, we've found a new place that was not within…
