This post may seem a bit late when we think about the subject matter. But, we had never imagined that we would still be discussing this to this day. There is not much to say about the aggressions that are continuing in Ukraine, as of this writing. We here at Matouring deplore…

We can only imagine the amount of thought, design and execution that takes place in order to provide us with sensible, organised, fluid and welcoming spaces at…
We love India, and the Indian people. We've worked and live alongside them for decades. We've visited their country and marveled at the variety there. Even now, half a world apart, one of India's great cities, Delhi, is not too far away. Restaurants, festivals and close friends keep the spirit of…
Mexico is nothing if not diverse, exciting, colourful, passionate, full of history and an endless supply of enjoyment.

Now . . . this post is dumb. Silly. Government regulations gone amok. Who thought of this? What benefit does it bring? What crime is it stopping? How much did it cost to implement, and how much does it cost to keep operating each year? And why -…
Mexico is a well-travelled and much-love destination for world-aware travelers.

We all know of places like Machu Pichu, Stonehenge, The great wall of China, the Moai statues of Easter Island, Chile, for example. But here is one you may not know of - and its quite spectacular. Copán is an archaeological site of the Maya civilization in the Copán Department of western Honduras, not…
