When your admin was young, and when the summer months finally arrived, one thing that we looked forward to was the chance to go camping. Our lovely and loving parents always found a way for us to spend our summers exploring. That's where we got our wanderlust. Rather than sitting at home,…
It's January of 2023 and we're absolutely loving the Amazon series The Bad Guy. Set in modern Palermo, Italy, it is an hilarious, unpredictable, subtle, violent and binge-worthy story of Mafia families, how they interact and the predictable / unpredictable outcomes that you would imagine. But, unlike most Mafia sagas, it is packed…
Well, this topic fills us with confusement. As if travel (and even simply enjoying yourself) isn't confusing enough at times, some clever marketing boffins and "influencers" often take it upon themselves to "kick it up a notch" and come up with the latest new buzz words. Of course, there are the classics: laser…
Do hotels make you tired? Whether you're an avid traveler, or a weary business slogger, for the most parts, hotels seem to be all the same. That's not a bad thing, of course, but if leaving home and staying in typical accommodations is a standard component of your adult life (or even if…
Once again, we write about camping. If you haven't tried it, what are you waiting for? We would imagine that many don't like the idea of sleeping on wet grass, or fighting off the horde of mosquitos that camping implies, but there are ways around that by upgrading to 21st century technology that's been around…
We're big fans of camping, especially because it can be so economical. From throwing your sleeping bags and tent into the back of your car, all the way up to renting a comfortable campervan, it's a great way to see the world without going bankrupt. We're sure that many of you consider camping as…

Camping is one of those love it / hate it propositions. Most of us are not in love with mosquitos. And, even in the summer, sleeping on the ground in a tent can be a lumpy and cold prospect. But, to be sure, the outdoor locations are usually mind-bogglingly beautiful, and you…

Sometimes there's nothing better than being out on your own, doing what you want to do on your schedule. And if you want a little peace, what could be a better choice than some of the expansive and - in many places - crowd-free places in Asia. Just you, your backback, your phone and .…
This is not your father's caravan: it's the 21st century.

I turn 60 today, and I feel vaguely embarrassed about it, like I’ve somehow let myself go, like I’ve been bingeing on decades and wound up in this unappealing condition. Chances are, most of you haven’t crossed this border station yet, so you’d better listen up. Because if you play your cards right, it’s going to…
Have you been to Iceland? Well, here's a fab idea, even if you have. I've never been camping before. There was no assembling tents at Girl Scouts or hopping into an oversized RV, not even a pop up in the backyard. So, when I told friends and family that my partner and I were renting…

Europe is many things, but one thing that is consistent across almost all of the European countries is the general approach to tolerance. Good, mature behaviour is recognised, and rewarded with few limitations or rules. The Europeans intrinsically get this.
And one area where this all blends together for Europeans is camping. This article talks about…

We are writing this post when - it appears - the the Covid-19 pandemic is starting to abate, and that many of us can, once more, open our doors, step outside and begin to enjoy life again. And what can be more life-affirming than getting out into nature, and breathing in the air? That is…
