Cultural Differences and Odd Superstitions

June 8, 2016 by John BLeave a Comment

Cultural Differences and Odd Superstitions

It is a truth universally acknowledged that tourists on holiday are likely to make fools of themselves. From telling an Italian to “rock on” with the seemingly-innocent hand gesture (which locally implies that his wife is being unfaithful) to giving a local Thai guide the thumbs-up (the native equivalent of the middle finger), it’s perfectly easy for the travelling man to offend his hosts, be ejected from a taxi and eternally shame himself, all … [Read more...]

You know? Sleeping in an airport ain’t so bad

You know? Sleeping in an airport ain’t so bad

Traveling for me is the memorable experience of exploring countries that few have had the privilege of visiting. I have travelled to many countries around the world; during my journeys I have experienced both amazing, yet sometimes even unpleasant things. One of these unpleasant experiences is when you look up at the monitors in an airport and see that your flight has been severely delayed. If you fly, you are certainly familiar with this - … [Read more...]

How to spend a few days in Buenos Aires (and feel like a Porteño)

How to spend a few days in Buenos Aires (and feel like a Porteño)

Traveling to Argentina without visiting Buenos Aires should be considered a 'criminal offense'. This huge city is the pulsating heart of the country containing its political, economic and cultural centres. Besides, it is a fantastic place to explore, with it's European charm (for good reason it is known as the Paris of the South) combined with it's South American vibe. In Buenos Aires, examples of modern architecture stand directly next to … [Read more...]

Mazatlán Food Culture: Beyond Shrimp & Pacifico Beer

The beach resort town of Mazatlán has long been known as the home of the Pacifico brewery and the first Señor Frog's. Restaurants like the Shrimp Bucket and Señor Frog's have been legendary spots for tourists to visit while in town, but there is much more you should know about the food scene if you are planning a visit. I recently visited Mazatlán and attended their first Culinary Roots Festival; Raíces Culinarias Mazatlán 2015. The festival … [Read more...]

The Heart of the South Bay – Torrance

The Heart of the South Bay – Torrance

I’d be willing to bet that if I asked you if you’ve ever been to Torrance, CA, your response would be something along the lines of “uh, where now?” Surrounded by Hermosa, Redondo, and Palos Verdes, well-known beach cities along California’s Santa Monica Bay, Torrance is often overlooked. However, for those who are looking for an authentic community experience in a location that is still close to all the Southern CA tourist hotspots, and will make … [Read more...]
