(& cream tangerines) If you're like us, music means a lot. And some music is almost reverential. For us, it's The Beatles. It will be very challenging to name another band that has been so influential for so long - decades after they broke up; it hasn't happened so far. And,…
A little European history for you kids, in this post. As a starter in case you're not aware, to get around, we humans have created a scheme based on meridians. A prime meridian is an arbitrarily-chosen meridian in a geographic coordinate system at which longitude is defined to be 0°. Together, a prime meridian…
Pity the poor British people who, while having a lovely, historic and diverse place to live, also have the agonizing problem of deciding which sunny location they should turn to in order to rent or purchase a sunny spot to escape the grey and unpleasant weather that is a major part of their everyday lives.…
There are lots of airlines out there in the world, waiting to handle your travel business. And, considering that they're in the business of making money on your travel, they have to be good, otherwise you'll take your business elsewhere, right? This may seem a bit shocking (it was to us) but who do…
Listening to Marvin, all night long and living in French caves was all the rage in 1964. And if that doesn't make you want to be a cave dweller - even if you think that you know France - then what about this? Trôo is a charming village located in the Loire Valley region…
Some of us live in cities that could probably be classed as a ghost town: Miriam Webster defines it as a "once-flourishing town wholly or nearly deserted usually as a result of the exhaustion of some natural resource."

Rather than pushing and polishing the same old thing, they gather around a table, brainstorm and - et voila - out come some innovative ideas that make you think - "hey, why didn't they think of that before?" Even more gratifying is when…
Ahh, la belle France. We can never get enough of it. And there is lots to get. As of 2022, the most desirable places to spend your holiday time in France are 1. Paris. 2. Nice. 3. Lyon 4. Bordeaux 5. Marseilles 6.Strasbourg 7. Lille and, finally…
Another European-focused post for you, and this one steps into the focus in that it isn't a travel article, per se, but it certainly affects those who wish to visit the continent. If you're a European citizen, you can also disregard the topic; you're exempt from the conversation just by the fact that you're…
The world is a rather big place, blanketed with water, glorious water. In fact, about 71 percent of the Earth's surface is water-covered. And that H20 that courses through us also draws us in as humans as if we were hypnotized. Did you know that up to 60% of the human adult body is water?…
