Put the hammer down, good buddy. There’s a Smokey bear in the air.
Happily, this is, for the most part, a philosophical question and not a pragmatic one. But what if? You're not a pilot, you've never even flown a Cessna 172 and now you, the hero, are faced with the plot of a bad movie. The pilot and co-pilot are not fully cognizant. …
If there's a vice or a trade that hurts animals, we're against it. The wanton, senseless murder for sport went on for far too long to the point of annihilating a number of species, many of them endangered to being with. But, are you heading off on a mindful safari? How…
We like to feature Belgrade when we can, as it’s a genuinely diverse and fun place to visit. You can cast away all of the cobwebs of the olde Belgrade, as those are yesterday’s news and certainly not the reality of this up-and-coming destination.
For example, Singapore Airlines’ New York City to Singapore route: its longest flight path, which connects Singapore’s Changi Airport with New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport, 9,585 miles away, takes 18 hours and 40 minutes
Some billionaires are solely focused on themselves. We won't necessarily point any fingers, but you'll know who they are. Lately they're getting back press for the way that they treat themselves, sometimes appearing almost like a clown or buffoon. It's truly a shame that they don't look at the bigger picture and…
A topic we often highlight - billionaires - is high on everyone's list nowadays , especially if you live inside TicTok.

Another instalment of our continuing series of webcams all across the planet, where you can - in real-time - vicariously relax in a place where you might never have been before. Here, we feature South Africa's Cape Town, and the lovely Clifton 4th beach. Picture a crescent-shaped strip of soft, powdery white sand…
Flying is quite the endeavor, nowadays. What with Covid 19 decimating air travel a few years back, to the proliferation / explosion of people around the globe being able to fly now, and actually doing so. Did you know that Every day, some 93,000 flights take off from approximately 9,000 airports? And at…
Magically, as our technology gets better (forget TikTok and Facebook for now) the layers of our earth are - in the capable hands of archeologists - gently peeled back to go forth into the past, telling us more about ourselves. Sometimes the news is not good: humans have a habit of destroying…
Perhaps it should be called Kittilaaahh. With the world ostensibily on fire right now, it is only natural to seek shelter. But where can you go that isn't already overrun with fellow humans thinking the same thing? How about Kittilä? Let's start by setting the setting. Kittilä is a municipality…
In this time of rampant, overbearing billionaires, me-me-me culture and ADHD social media, here's something to act as an antidote to all of that. And, of course, it comes from Japan, where they seem to find a balance, no matter what. In this case, it's a beautiful solution to an "ugly" problem…
Pity the poor airlines over the last few years. Things were hunky dory until Covid came along in 2020 and turned the world upside-down. And, now that Covid is more or less a horrible memory, the airlines are trying to ramp up their service again. During Covid, many pilots left their…
Not long ago, the title of this post could (and still does) convey the allure and beauty that Alexandria has to offer, but now with the GEM Museum finally being open, it's time to make your way to Egypt to be amazed with what the museum has for you. It's astounding, really. …
