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…
Hands up – how many of you have visited Ohrid?
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,…

Here's another travel test. How many of you know where Bandipur is? Probably only a handful of people. And that might be a bit sad, as it probably won't be as many people as it should: the world is like that: so big with so much to explore. Let's…
Do you know Bergamo? It’s listed as #3 of World’s Best Places to Visit for 2023-2024.
Like you, we love to travel wherever and whenever we can. And, for the most part, that is both do-able and easy. Some places are - not surprisingly - out of the realm of reality for most of us (the North Pole for example) but out of the 195 countries on the planet,…
We love sharing the planet with our readers and friends. So much to see and do, and so little time, especially when you’re in our age bracket, And sometimes getting around to see these places are, sadly, a non-starter. So what can you do, but simply see the world vicariously.
Are you one of those "been there, done that" kind of people? That's excellent if you are. The world is so big, we humans are so small and life is so short. So why not grab life by the horns and really go for it? How about a place that is…
Hands up: who's heard of Mompox? We're willing to bet that not many have. When the star of your country is a place like Bogota, it's hard to step out of that shadow. But, as ever, Mompox is yet another city that you truly must make an effort to see. Mompox,…
