Come see “the breaded ones”
. . . it's really really where I'm going to. If you're a gamer, then do we have the holiday for you, and this is a win-win situation, for sure. Firstly, it's based in and centered around Brussels, Belgium, where the history looms large, the beer cannot be beaten, nor can the food.…
We've been to Cartagena, Colombia many, many times. Why, you may ask? We have family there, but - even more - it's such a wonderful place to be (as is all of Colombia.) Relaxed, hip, diverse, fun and rich in history. And the food transcends. Located on the northern coast…
Singapore is a captivating destination with a unique blend of modernity, culture, and natural beauty. As Simon and Garfunkel once said, slow down, you're moving too fast. You've got to make the morning last. But, if you're a go for the gusto, to-the-extreme, what's in it for me win-win situation, been there,…
Remember the days of yore, when you could simply and easily book a flight from the comfort of your laptop, getting top savings almost without even really trying?
If you haven't already noticed, we're kinda geeks / dorks here when it comes to certain things. One of which is rail. Why pollute the environment at 65mph when you can hurtle down the tracks at twice that speed - comfortably in a reclining seat, we might add - and where you can…
Like you, we love to travel wherever and whenever we can. And, for the most part, that is both do-able and easy. Some places are - not surprisingly - out of the realm of reality for most of us (the North Pole for example) but out of the 195 countries on the planet,…
You're always spoiled for choice when you choose Japan as a destination. Welcoming, progressive, playful and unforgettable, it's a "no brainer" when it's time to go. But, Japan is so diverse, where should you go, especially if you've been before, or want something new. Well, say hello to Sapporo. The capital city…
Those of us who visit sites like ours (and so many others) sometimes take our travel trips for granted. Many of us are fortunate to be able to explore locations that may not be "standard issue" destinations. There are many poor countries around the globe, with kind, wonderful people and, when we can,…
We love to discover (and feature) places on our planet that are not necessarily on everyone's lips - yet. And there are so many of them, where do we even start? Hopefully, if you visit our site regularly, you'll enjoy being exposed and enlightened to a wider selection of what the world has…
Mexico is often up and down in the parade of travel destinations. One "off" story in the news can derail the country's reputation and, therefore, it's fortunes. There are any number of reasons why this happens, and many of the reasons are political and not always in Mexico's hands, and not in its…
What a headline that is. What does it even mean? Let's get to the bottom of it, shall we? Portuguese football team captain and former Real Madrid striker (and dreamboat) Cristiano Ronaldo, and international tennis legend Rafael Nadal, are behind the Tatel restaurant due to open in Spain's third-largest metropolis this summer.…
It may be a necessity, but it is also a joy: eating. And, in this day and age as the world get closer together through social media, one of the big stars is food. No matter which social media channel you favour, you will be deluged with images of lip-smacking eats…
Those of you who have heard of Myrtle Beach, raise your hands. I see a few of our readers are aware of the place. Those if you may have heard of it but don't know much, or would like to know more, read on, as it will be worth it. Because if…
Look on a map of Europe, you might see something that you've overlooked before. The island of Corsica appears right smack dab between Marseille and Rome. Of course, there is quite a bit of distance between the three places, so it's not simply a short drive. But, when you stop to think about…
Here is something that we never thought we would see, although I guess we're not surprised. Time moves on. When you think of UNESCO sites, it's usually Minarets or archaeological remains, often in far-flung locations, many of them ruins. We love UNESCO and feature lots of posts about them. (Click here for that.)…
France never gets tiring, unless you wear yourself out by living life to the fullest there. Of course, Paris is at the top of the list for most people, as is Marseille or Nice or Bordeaux. Few countries have the variety or diversity that France has, in pretty much all aspects. And…
