Even as we approach our "sunset years," it's clear that most of what we used to be is still with us. Our playfulness. Our sense of humour. Our love of life. Our desire to travel. Seeing live music and enjoying it just as much as we did when we were…

Even though their shelf life is probably limited, super cars and sports cars are here to stay and, for many of us, we're glad that they are. Especially when you take a look back cars from the '50s, 60s and onwards. What we see nowadays, for the most part, are econoboxes that all pretty much…
We set up a remote work community in the Tuscan mountains. One of our favourite sites / YouTube channels is Euronews.com. Mostly focused on Europe, our favourite place in the world, Euronews is also focused on the rest of the big wide world. They're erudite, funny, playful and right on target when…
One of our valued affiliate friends, VRBO, sent some details to a place we'd never heard of - McAllen Texas. The email featured lots of nice places to rent, so we were curious. What is McAllen Texas like? What's there for us (and you!) to see and do? So, as you…
We love cars, especially classic, luxury and exotic. We've had a bunch of them over the years, but we also realise that they have an impact on our planet, so we take the trains as much - if not more - than we do cars. But that doesn't reduce our love of beautiful…

Mother nature has provided so many mind-blowing spectacles for us humans to explore and desire. So much so that we will likely not see them all. But that doesn't stop us from trying, especially when some of them are so accessible and "special" in the true sense of the word. Portugal is (to us) a…
