Some visual eye-candy that, without words, will speak for itself. Sit down with a big glass of Montepulciano and plan your next trip to the city of mirrors.
Germany is certainly at the front of European power, drive and energy. An economic and social powerhouse itself, it stands as one of Europe's shining stars when it comes to making things happen. And this dynamo of a country is looking for smart, energetic workers. Germany is doubling down on plans to attract skilled workers from…
If ever there was a city that has universally admired vibes, its Sydney, Australia. And rightly so. The vibes are real, as are the people. Gorgeous weather, sea, sun and more, it’s worth the flight. Go, mate!
“Man, I was tame compared to what they do now.” Elvis set the template for what a rocker should be. Now, go see where he rocked!
Our affiliate friends, Scott's Cheap flights, has been rebranded as Going. Simple! (No, this is not a farewell message from one of our team members.) So who is Scott and why is this noteworthy? His business model is simple, yet brilliant. 1. Follow airports. 2. Choose destinations …
We won't spend too much time discussing the dimensions of our beloved planet Earth. That's something that we all should have learned when we were supposedly learning things in school. It's big, to say the least. (OK, we guessed that you would want to know: Earth's circumference is the distance around…
Travel can be a complex undertaking, even in the best of times. There are so many moving parts to most itineraries, and it doesn't help when one (or more) of the pieces falls out of place. Here is one story - courtesy of Gary Leff's "View from the Wing" site. (We've featured him…
If we could, we would like to spend most of our days floating in the bath-like waters of almost any beach or island, no matter where it is. Truly, is there anything better than lying face-up or face-down in the sand (or on a rocker or a hammock) as you slowly roast yourself to…
Since 2019, travel has been, generally, a horror show. And, to be honest, it hasn't gotten a whole lot better since then. Between trying to fire up dormant jet planes, to what once were thriving destinations (now slow and closed, in many places) ramping back up to 100% capacity has been slow-going. And…
We love discovering fun new stuff. Whether it's a city, or an activity or even a hotel - as is the case here - we love to share our latest finds with you, our fun and erudite readers. And this one doesn't disappoint. Located in Mexico City, meet Oh! Oriente Hotel. Mexico…
If you pick up any newspaper or magazine, you'll undoubtedly find that there is still mayhem when it comes to flying. As quickly as the Covid pandemic destroyed travel for over two years, its disappearance and the resulting rush and push to travel once again has absolutely nailed many travel companies to the wall.…
Shush.... show a little respect. This post is for you adventurers who constantly want to do something out of the ordinary. Rather than spend your days on a beach or in a huge city, going from one museum to another, you want to look for something that not many others have seen.…
In some parts of the world (where we live, for example) it's cold and covered in snow. You need to scrape the snow off your car every morning (and every evening) if you're still a working stiff. You can never predict what the situation will be like tomorrow, as the meteorologists often have…
Are you one of those types that wants to visit every country in the world? (PS - there are 195 countries in the world today.) Or, as a friend of ours is doing, trying to visit 50 countries before he turns 50. It's an admirable goal, and fun, as well. But,…
Americans love their grim descriptions of things and places. It's in films, magazines and movies. And just take a sample of some of Netflix's titles. Need we say more? It's a national obsession. And it's not new. In 1936, on the occasion of a speech by the nationalist Gen. Millan…
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…
Well, let us once again, remind you of why living in this time in space is not bad at all. Technology brings us all together and not only can we explore our planet, but we can also find ways of saving money to do it. In this case, how does cheap flights with…
We expect that most of our hip and erudite readers have been to New York City: of course you have. And, probably many times, as there is no end to the entertainment in that most flamboyant of cities. It's hard to get tired of the city, as you pound the pavement. But…
As of this writing, at least where we live, it's cold and snowy, and it looks like it will stay that way for some time. Grey, wet and miserable. The sun goes down at 5:00pm and stays that way until April. Yuk. Boy, would we sure would like to be somewhere warm…
Those of us who are fortunate enough to be able to travel sometimes grumble at the hoops that we have to leap through in order to get good deals, or whine about how uncomfortable the seats are, or how miserly the on-board cuisine is. Yes, our lives are tough, indeed, Poor us. …
