Not your typical Wild Men of Borneo.
Losing your luggage is horrible. But check out this post’s steps to get you back on your way.
We live in Vancouver, Canada. It's a rather nice place, where water is plentiful. The primary area for visitors is downtown, which happens to sit on a bay. It's a lovely place, such that the city has spent much effort and money to make it a place to see. And, as…
Doesn't sound like much fun, does it? Why would you want to go to a place that actually has the name mosquito in it? Especially if - like us - you grew up in a place where the annual plague of mosquitos appeared every summer - without fail - and completely ruined your…
Don't blink. Depending on where you live, you might be seduced into thinking that you're at the bleeding edge of technology. That's probably true in some cases (and some places) but, if you're not keeping up to date on what is happening around the globe, then you're probably in for a bit of…

After 12 hours, smashed into a seat on a plane, with still more hours to go before you have any hope of landing, you'll know that this is not the luxury travel that you'd always hoped for. And, even worse, you still have to face disembarking, finding your bags and maneuvering your way to…
At the time of this writing, it's May of 2023. There are multiple wars underway. The environment is in utter turmoil. The number of billionaires has shot through the roof. And the poor are fighting for their lives. And, as if that isn't bad enough, women still encounter challenges when…
Almost everyone who considers themself a traveler has taken at least one cruise. Whether it's ocean cruising, river cruising, singles or solo cruises, adults-only and couples cruises, luxury cruises or adventure cruises, there is something for everyone. And, sure, cruises have a certain "reputation" with some non-believers, but that is just sensationalism. …
Life is challenging. Travel is challenging. And, unfortunately it can be worse for women, for an endless supply of reasons. The interest in solo travel continues to rise worldwide, especially among women. Research by Norwegian Cruise Line has found that one in three travelers prefers to travel solo, and older women in particular are driving…
We always like to keep you updated on stuff. And some of the stuff may not always seem to relate to travel. But, rest assured, our aim is true. You see, sometimes - most times actually - there is a veritable bee-hive of activity happening to allow you to book your trip…
Life is life, and it's full of stuff and part of that is pampering yourself. Especially when you have the resources to really enjoy it. Sometimes, life comes to you and you're able to bask in in. Sometimes, you need to stretch a bit to enjoy the glamorous life. But, sometimes…
You don't see too many tours to the Antarctic, and there's a reason for that. First, most humans flee at full speed away from frigid temperatures. Unless you're a skier, you are usually looking for deals to Tahiti or similar climes. It's always nice to come back from a trip without frostbite.…
Japan is a wonderland of the beautiful, the mystical, the serene, the playful and the historical. Especially with the latter, if you count years using this imperial era system, this year (2022 on the Western calendar) would be 2681 in Japan. Not many countries can claim that. If we use the standard…
We're sorry. We couldn't resist playing with that lousy pun of a post title. But this cruise down the Nile does come with a mummy-back guarantee. Ahem... now back to reality, Remember the wide-eyed wonder of learning about ancient Egypt at school? Our affiliate friends, Titan Travel, are offering this comprehensive Egypt…
Every day, we scour the Interwebs to find content that we think you'll like. We try to steer away from the typical standard normal usual stuff that you usually see in your inbox. We love to travel, we've done it a lot and we want to find new and interesting options for ourselves…
If you're in business these days, you've got to be smart, clever, innovative and original or else you'll likely go under. And there has been a watershed of new ideas and business execution attempts that have lost their steam or have dried up. Thinking in a shell no longer works, and being crabby…
Being the sharing, inclusive and fun site that we fashion ourselves to be, we always look for new and interesting locales for our readers to research and explore. It's a big planet, we only have so much time on it and so, we should use our time wisely. That's why we hand-select places…
There is never a bad time to take a cruise. And, bad cruises are rare, as long as you know what you want, and how to find it. (We have some ideas, see below.) But who would best know about cruising than the captain of one of those most majestic beasts? …
