As we travelers and adventurers get older, our bodies no longer let us do everything that we once did. Our stamina declines, our knees get weaker, and we start to suffer ailments that we knew nothing about in our younger years. But our quest for adventure doesn’t go away. So many of us older travelers get frustrated that we can’t do everything that we would like to do. Trekking to Everest base camp or expeditions to Patagonia start to become … [Read more...]

Evolution of the Smartwatch

December 8, 2018 by Suzanne ELeave a Comment

Travel involves lists. Lots and lots of lists. Whether you plan your itinerary in your head, on paper, or on a smart phone or laptop, any well-seasoned traveller knows that when you’re not enjoying the sights and sounds of your latest destination, you will be making a list and checking it twice. Tickets, luggage, hotel bookings, flight times, important phone numbers, trip details … when you commit to travel plans, there’s a list waiting around … [Read more...]

How to Avoid a Car Hire Horror Story Abroad

December 8, 2018 by Suzanne ELeave a Comment

Travel represents an escape. Something different, dangerous, and romantic. That’s why we all love seeing the photos and reading the blog posts. We imagine ourselves right there, seeing it for ourselves. The colour of India. The charm of Paris. The tree tops and swinging jungle life of Borneo. Beats the grey suits of the Monday morning board room, don’t you think? Of course, that one perfect selfie with circling Tiger sharks in the Gulf of … [Read more...]

The End of the Road: “I’ve finally made it around the world.”

December 8, 2018 by Pete Martin2 Comments

I’m tired this morning. It feels like the end of a very long journey. I sleep in, listening to the sounds of Parisian life outside my hotel. While it will be the end of this journey around the world with the last leg from Paris back to Frankfurt tomorrow, perhaps it’s the start of something else. I want to believe that my days of living and working with people who do not share my values are over (or at least I will be conscious of the … [Read more...]

My Top 5 Reasons to Take a Cruise

December 5, 2018 by Dave4 Comments

One of my favorite destinations for cruising is in the Caribbean - with island nations typically 60 to 100 miles apart, one can visit a different country nearly every day. It is a destination where one can just as easily opt for a short cruise or a longer one and still be exposed to different countries and cultures. And with plenty of beaches and year round warm weather, I've found myself in the Caribbean every November or December the past few … [Read more...]

Vasque Snowblime Ultradry™ Hiking Boots

December 4, 2018 by Dave4 Comments

Excited to test out my new Vasque hiking boots I headed up state to the northern reaches of California. I stopped in Redding, a town known for outdoor activities and featuring plenty of hiking trails in the surrounding hills. I headed out towards Whiskeytown Lake and then found myself in the back country hiking down several dirt footpaths. The Vasque Snowblime Ultradry™ Hiking Boots are ideal for winter use in the snow but certainly are good … [Read more...]

On the Road to Vegas, A Collection of our Favorite Casinos

December 2, 2018 by DaveLeave a Comment

Perhaps at a normal airport one would be surprised to see slot machines greeting you as soon as you step off the plane, but this is McCarran Airport, the gateway to Las Vegas. For those who can't wait to get to the 'strip' this is a surprising convenience. But the real action is along Las Vegas Boulevard, several miles of some of the best entertainment, restaurants, and opulence in the entire country. McCarran Airport is located right next to … [Read more...]
