How now Palau?
Here's another post for you where we excitedly present another pulse-racing location in the world that you may not know about but should . . and will. Many of these are available for all to wander through, at no cost other than what you pay to arrive. Some are spectacularly remote, others…
It's September of 2023. Any thinking person will be aware of and supportive of UNESCO. As we watch the world fall / burn to pieces over these past couple of years, we need the organisation even more. Big oil is still beating its chest to the call of dozens of waiting billionaires.…
It's April of 2023. Thus far, there has been no let-up on the hatred and destruction that has plagued our people for the past few years. Between the tensions of the so-called superpowers, and the ideological uprisings centered around religion, it feels like we have stepped back several decades. Sure, this is…
This is a simple, but very important request. For those of us who are fortunate enough to travel, this should almost be mandatory.
UNESCO has created the Sustainable Tourism Pledge. The pledge takes an industry-first approach to environmental and cultural protection, requiring hotel operators to introduce firm measures to eliminate single-use plastics and promote local culture.

Ibiza in Spain is famous for its nightclubs, but what you probably did not know is that it is home to the largest nightclub in the world. This is Privilege , which with a main hall the size of an aircraft hangar, a 25-meter high ceiling and a swimming pool, has a capacity of 10,000…
I’m sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t do that.
Xanadu for you forever, Forever and always.
You probably won’t see this showing up much on TikTok.
E-1027 is a modernist villa located in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin. Explore the area and be bedazzled.
....on the Ivory coast. No surprise here. Crocodiles pull in the crowds. But don't let them pull you in, too, literally, as delicious as you think you look. Everyone loves a show, so please meet Félix Houphouët-Boigny, affectionately called Papa Houphouët or Le Vieux, (1905–1993) was a prominent Ivorian politician…
Off we go again today, searching for - and delivering - another reason to visit our site regularly. So, as lovely and as unforgettable as they are, how many times can you visit Venice or Paris? Or, perhaps better said, how many times do you think you might want to skip Venice or…
Berat: that’s where it’s at. Do something different.
As of this writing, it's January 30, 2024, the planet is still on fire. We humans are not getting it. It's not like we don't know what's happening, or why, or how to fix it. According to NOAA's 2023 Annual Climate Report the combined land and ocean temperature has increased at an…
We're always looking for adventure, no matter where it lies. And, in some cases, lies are part of the package. Our governments are sketchy at best, and there is so little that we know, although the electric interwebs are there, assisting the curious, the believers and the non-believers to allow the truth come…
No, this has nothing to do with hallucinogens, but that's your call. As is our wont, we're focusing on a rather nice place that you might want to consider for your next "trippy." As you will have no doubt guessed, we're featuring a trippy to Principe. And if you're not in the know,…
We recently happened upon a fascinating video featuring the calming and kind Bettany Hughes where she takes viewers into locations - many subterranean - in this most interesting country. Its history is beyond impressive, especially with so many countries taking control at one time or another. In fact, Malta has a history dating…
No, it's not the name of some new trendy Pale Ale. Still, we wish we could have been around when the first nations of Canada named this place. We would love to have seen the discourse and decision-making. We wonder who finally triumphed in the name game. Was it rock, paper,…
One thing about the world is that you'll never run out of things to do. Lucky us. And here we feature another such place that we're willing to bet that most of us haven't heard of, let alone seen. It's Ajara. A region located in southwestern Georgia, it offers a unique…
Malta is the answer. And it's a place that many often forget about, which is a huge shame. If you're not in the know, Malta itself is a beautiful Mediterranean island nation with a rich history, stunning landscapes, and a unique culture that makes it a compelling destination for travelers. And it's easy…
