These faux constructions blend with local architecture, concealing equipment and maintaining aesthetic continuity. While visiting these hidden gems, don’t expect hospitality; they’re not actual homes, just clever urban disguises.
This post draws parallels between the peculiar charm of cats and the music band Kraftwerk. Cats, much like appreciating Kraftwerk, require an acclimation period due to their unpredictable nature. The post highlights the affectionate, low-maintenance, entertaining qualities of cats, and their associated health benefits. It mentions Catfe in Vancouver, a café that aids in cat…

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.…
We would guess that many of us - perhaps even most of us - will skip buying travel insurance when we go. You look at the offers, weigh the plusses and minuses and then either hope for the best, or trust that, perhaps, our credit cards will have the necessary coverage in case of…
Do we ever run out of things to do in Europe? No, not likely. Even when you have haunted the same tourist traps over and over again, you'll walk around the corner and a new and delightful activity will jump out into your path. And so many of these things to do…
Wouldn't that be a dream? Imagine walking out of the flight terminal, and then stepping on or off the plane, a plane that waits for you, only steps away. Imagine not having to push and shove to get a good seat, or a window seat. Does this sound too good to be…
As we like to do, let's put politics to the side for now and bask in sheer genius, instead. And, not surprisingly, we are featuring China again. The width and depth of their resources, combined with the remarkable can-do attitude and creativity still continues into this millennia. How many countries can boast…
We here at Matouring are not politically driven, but we do care about the world's people. Do you ever shed a tear for some countries and its people who take the brunt of the pain when another country steps on top of it? Can you think of any countries that might do that,…

We love aircraft, flying and everything that swirls around it. And speaking of swirls, that might just be you as you try to unravel the sometimes impenetrable jargon that is part of aviation. The industry uses it for very specific purposes, and one of the main purposes is to keep passengers safe and…
If you're not too much into history, you might want to jump to any of our other 2000+ posts, but you may also want to stick with us here, because this is a wide-reaching discussion on how New York City blossomed into the behemoth that it is, and why - if you're the curious type…
Yes, yes . . we know. That headline is not The King's "well English" but maybe it caught your attention. So, with no further ado, we will leap headfirst into yet another rail post. As we often say, rail travel is the future and the present in some places. In…
