So, you may ask, what and where is Ubatuba and what makes it your new fave travel destination? Ubatuba is a singular place to visit due to its breathtaking Atlantic coastline with over 100 beaches, a reputation as the "surf capital of Brazil," and a variety of natural attractions like hiking trails, islands, and opportunities for…
“Japan, an archipelago of beauty suspended between the sea and the sky.” “In Japan, every island is a stepping stone to a new discovery.”
As many parts of the world still rely on automobiles, creating a mess of our atmosphere (we won't mention any names, but we're sure you can guess, other countries do the exact opposite and look for every opportunity to choose rail. Rail is an excellent solution for the environment, especially when compared to road…
The travel business can be a wild one, especially in this day and age, where "influencers" are piling on the "content." As we often remind ourselves, we genuinely are thankful for being in the travel business and having the opportunity to discover, and then share our good fortune with you. One such affiliate friend…
Travel is a big thing, isn't it? That's no news. But what is news is how the travel industry is literally exploding with all things new. The "explosion" of travel in recent times is not a single event but a phenomenon driven by a powerful combination of technological, social, and economic factors.…
Really? Mention Francis Bacon, and you sometimes have to clarify which one you mean: the twentieth-century painter, or the seventeenth-century philosopher? Despite how much time separated their lives, the two men aren’t without their connections. One may actually have been a descendant of the other, if you credit the artist’s father’s claim of relation…
All aboard the Not Creepy, just "previously enjoyed BGVoz Suburban Train System. At least It has one and it works! Did you know that Malta, San Marino and Iceland don't have rail at all. Take that! For a rail fan, Belgrade's rail service is interesting because it represents a fascinating mix of…
There are 44 countries in Europe today, according to the United Nations. And once you've been bitten by them, you'll want to see them all. And rightly so. You'll be hard-pressed to find so much variety all packed in one place. You may be asking "Where do I even start?" Well, never…
Be mine tonight. It's not very often when you find a "hidden treasure" in travel these days. Either it's heaving with people, or the prices are laughable. So we thought we'd give you the first look at a place that is none of that and, even better, you'll definitely want to book…
. . . and it has a lot for you to see and do. Those in the historical know will have some background or history with Chile. A genuinely fascinating and unforgettable place, and one that sometimes hides shyly in the travel shadows. Given how travel is nowadays, with the hoards of "influencers"…
. . . . or just flushed with embarrassment? One of the thrills of creating this website is marveling at how creative some content creators are. Whether it's turning an old, past its prime Airbus jet into a swish hotel, or sleeping in caves with bats, we travel lovers have our work cut…
When we look back in history, most of us seek past knowledge, or perhaps ways of living. It could be protective measures to ensure that our families are safe and sound, so that we can continue the lineage. We could be seeking higher ground and simply a better way. Let's look at some…
Dust. The Japanese service stations are leaving the rest of us in the dust. Wow! When we lived in the UK, we were rather impressed with our roadside services, especially with the ease of entering and exiting. We also appreciated how we could just step out side our car, stretch and sometimes…
Are you going? Part 1. As we do, we were poking around on the electric interwebs looking for interesting content. Out of nowhere, the phrase and accompanying tune found its way to the forefront of my cranium. Those who are aware of the rather lovely British city will be clued-in. …
Travelers are spoiled with choice these days. Some travelers are just spoiled. Sure, twerking in front of your friends is swell, but is it really necessary when it comes to walking the planet? The answer, of course is a resounding no. Share and share alike, but be a grownup about it. …
Noooo. It's Butlins! We're all about fun. And we're all about history. Put them together and the fun never stops. There was a period in history where more and more families were seeing more and more money in their bank accounts. This also aligns with them having more children who…
Oz is one of those places that everyone wants to visit, and that's no surprise, when you consider the depth and breadth that the country has to offer, even if it is rather far away from where you might be at the moment. Why is that? Perth's unique character as a travel destination stems…
Ah, America. A place divided in so many ways, yet so cohesive at the same time. Your editor was born in the USA, but after living there 22 years, enough was enough. Let it be known that some of my siblings live there (I love them dearly) but they are not the…
In case you think this post will end up being a sales pitch, we promise that it will be (of sorts) but will also thrill you to pieces when you see what its all about. We were squealingly surprised when it landed in our in-box. As you'll obviously see by the title of…
