It's been a while, but we're back with another episode of Never Too Small, the fab and clever YouTube channel that highlights how smart humans can be when confronted with predicaments: in this case, small living quarters. We have several episodes on our site, and they always impress us with their ingenuity, creativity…
We write a lot about Mexico, because it has a lot to offer, of course. Sun, sea, food, lovely people and it's a holiday bargain. The country is probably more diverse than you remember and, as you jaunt from city to city, you can see how Mexico is a fascinating patchwork of interconnected…
Indulge us as we look to the past of travel and, in some aspects, compare it to modern travel. In many ways, today's air travel is light years away from even the 1970s. Those of us who flew in that time period would slump into our "state-of-art" jet liner seats and marvel at how…
What a tempting and delicious mélange is Europe. Ever-changing, never-changing and full to the rim of things to do, the Motherland will keep you entertained and enthused until you take your last breath, practically. After all of the world wars that this place has endured, it still remains, almost like 27 birds flying…
Hardly! Mexico is a massive and bustling country, but to this day, it still has a "reputation" of being slow to move and not firing on all cylinders. Well, nothing could be further from the truth. We've been there and it is as action-packed, bustling and diverse as any place on the planet.…
To keep our readers (and us) happy, we're passionate about boning up on all things travel. It's a habit of ours, as we love to travel, too - a lot. And we're always scouring the web to see what's new, what's old (history) and what's out there that we think you'll enjoy. We've…
As if Japan itself isn't exciting and alluring enough as it is, the icing on the cake is Japan's rail system, surely one of the best on the planet. The country has consistently invested in the development and maintenance of its rail infrastructure. This includes high-speed shinkansen (bullet trains) and extensive urban transit networks,…
. . . . there's a place for you in the airport lounge. At last! You've been the diligent road warrior. You've been across the planet (maybe even several times) to bring commerce and riches to your employers. But, for one reason or another, having access to the airport lounges has…
We recently happened upon a fascinating video featuring the calming and kind Bettany Hughes where she takes viewers into locations - many subterranean - in this most interesting country. Its history is beyond impressive, especially with so many countries taking control at one time or another. In fact, Malta has a history dating…
One thing about the world is that you'll never run out of things to do. Lucky us. And here we feature another such place that we're willing to bet that most of us haven't heard of, let alone seen. It's Ajara. A region located in southwestern Georgia, it offers a unique…
There is nothing like Ihre Mutter’s cooking.
Hands up – how many of you have visited Ohrid?
Come see “the breaded ones”
. . . it's really really where I'm going to. If you're a gamer, then do we have the holiday for you, and this is a win-win situation, for sure. Firstly, it's based in and centered around Brussels, Belgium, where the history looms large, the beer cannot be beaten, nor can the food.…
We've been to Cartagena, Colombia many, many times. Why, you may ask? We have family there, but - even more - it's such a wonderful place to be (as is all of Colombia.) Relaxed, hip, diverse, fun and rich in history. And the food transcends. Located on the northern coast…
Singapore is a captivating destination with a unique blend of modernity, culture, and natural beauty. As Simon and Garfunkel once said, slow down, you're moving too fast. You've got to make the morning last. But, if you're a go for the gusto, to-the-extreme, what's in it for me win-win situation, been there,…
Sometimes a place will steal your heart away. One of those is Latvia. Surprise yourself.
Tokyo Cyberpunk City. Neon. Coffee. Noise. Lights. Food. Yeah!
There’s no getting around getting around. But we can get ahead of climate change.
Remember the days of yore, when you could simply and easily book a flight from the comfort of your laptop, getting top savings almost without even really trying?
