No, this has nothing to do with hallucinogens, but that's your call. As is our wont, we're focusing on a rather nice place that you might want to consider for your next "trippy." As you will have no doubt guessed, we're featuring a trippy to Principe. And if you're not in the know,…
Ahh, jellyfish. So loved, and yet so misunderstood. Who isn't mesmerized as we watch them drift aimlessly in the ocean or in the aquarium (but hopefully not in our bathtub.) They seem to beckon us to reach out to pet them, or at least say "hi." But, as we get older…
The world is a rather big place, blanketed with water, glorious water. In fact, about 71 percent of the Earth's surface is water-covered. And that H20 that courses through us also draws us in as humans as if we were hypnotized. Did you know that up to 60% of the human adult body is water?…
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…
Reach for the stars and you may get a handful. And that is an idiom (that we just made) up that might well describe the pickle that Dubai is in now with it's gobsmackingly huge Ain Dubai project. Intended to be the largest Ferris wheel in the world, this awesome - literally awesome…
Europe for less than £795. And that includes up to 15 days!
“We are the robots”
You know our mantra here on our site. We love travel and we love history, and we love it when we can combine the two. And we love it even more when we find hidden treasures around the globe. Even more, it's always a thrill to be able to highlight history in…
If you're a regular to our site, you'll probably have seen some posts about Air Transat. The airline is a Canadian company based in Montreal, Quebec. Founded in 1986, it operates scheduled and charter flights serving 60 destinations in 25 countries. It's might seem curious that the company doesn't have much of a…
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…
Malta is the answer. And it's a place that many often forget about, which is a huge shame. If you're not in the know, Malta itself is a beautiful Mediterranean island nation with a rich history, stunning landscapes, and a unique culture that makes it a compelling destination for travelers. And it's easy…
Lloret de Mar is your relaxed secret Spanish playground.
Easyjet manage around 1,800 flights and carrying around 250,000 customers per day. They have to be good.
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…
Sometimes a place will steal your heart away. One of those is Latvia. Surprise yourself.
Off to the beach; I will be out of reach. Let’s Goa!
Here's another delightful bubbling under find (for most of us.) We scour the globe every day to find little known destinations for you. It was only recently when we discovered the Perhentian Islands. A visit to the Perhentian Islands is taking a step into a rare, exotic paradise, and the perfect place to…
Another instalment of our continuing series of webcams all across the planet, where you can - in real-time - vicariously relax in a place where you might never have been before. Here, we feature South Africa's Cape Town, and the lovely Clifton 4th beach. Picture a crescent-shaped strip of soft, powdery white sand…
Underneath the earth’s crust, there are underground lakes where you can exercise your flippers and your lungs without the crowds, the noise and experience middle earth.
We love to feature these EarthCam videos / slice of life scenes from all across the globe. Set up by enterprising web geniuses, they rig their cameras to something stable, plug them into their computers and et voila, you're there. Today's webcam is Casino Pier South Seaside Heights in New Jersey, USA. …
