Back from the ‘Desh

February 2, 2009 by DaveLeave a Comment

Had a great few weeks in Bangladesh. Nice to visit a country that hasn't yet been discovered by foreign tourists. Spent a week in Dhaka and vicinity exploring the countryside and then another week in the south. The Sundarbans are the world's largest mangrove swamp and a visit here is for nature lovers and those trying to see the extremely rare Royal Bengal Tiger.

Dhaka, Bangladesh

February 1, 2009 by Dave3 Comments

If you are looking for a country that often many westerner's cannot even identify its location on a map, a place where foreigners are generally treated with care and respect, a country that has not been polluted with tourism, the "land of smiles" and a country where you will rarely see foreign tourists, then consider a trip to Bangladesh. However note that tourism can be difficult for independent travelers. Airfare is generally fairly … [Read more...]

Architecture, Tango and Amazing Landscapes

January 11, 2009 by HostelBookersLeave a Comment

It's hard to know where to start when describing Argentina: a country of vibrant cities that somehow find their way onto every backpacker's wish list, Argentina is also a place of incredible diversity and natural beauty. From tango clubs in charmingly chaotic Buenos Aires to breathtaking treks across the Perito Moreno Glacier, it's a truly beguiling travel destination. What's more, despite its modern (and often quite 'European') metropolises, … [Read more...]

Iran; the most misunderstood country of the world!

January 2, 2009 by Kourosh ZiabariLeave a Comment

Over the years when talking to a foreign tourist who has come to my motherland for the very first time I've gotten used to hearing expressions such as "wow! I see you have restaurants in Iran!", or "Believe me Iran was not what I'd thought", "I never thought you had such a beautiful country" and so on. For the global public opinions and the mass majority who do not have any particular way of knowing a distant land rather than relying on the … [Read more...]
