Why Adventurers and Gamers Share the Same Spirit of Discovery

September 5, 2025 by Zaklina PostLeave a Comment

You will often find that those who love to travel also have a love of gaming. These two activities might seem unrelated at first glance, especially with gaming being an indoor activity usually done at home, but there is a clear similarity between both - a shared spirit of discovery. Obviously, travel is all about discovering the world and having new experiences, meeting new people, and discovering ways of life that are different from back home. … [Read more...]

Seattle in a Snap: Argosy Cruises & Blueberry Bliss

September 1, 2025 by DaveLeave a Comment

Finding ourselves in Seattle midweek, we opted for two distinctly Seattle and Washington activities; a Harbor Cruise in Seattle on Argosy Cruises and blueberry picking (and grazing) at several U-pick blueberry farms near Everitt. Departures for the Argosy cruises are from Pier 54 along Seattle's waterfront. You will want to arrive at least 30 minutes early to guarantee a good seat, weather permitting on the top deck. As you board, you will … [Read more...]

Monsoon Treks in Nashik: A Spiritual and Historical Journey on Brahmagiri and Beyond

August 10, 2025 by Urbanchats1 Comment

Last Sunday, I set out on a solo adventure that turned into one of my most memorable monsoon experiences in Nashik, my hometown. As a Nashik native, I’ve always been drawn to the Western Ghats during the rains, when the hills transform into a lush, misty paradise. This time, I chose to trek Brahmagiri and Bhandardurg Fort near Trimbakeshwar, a journey that blended nature, spirituality, and history in a way I hadn’t expected. Here’s my story, … [Read more...]

Penang Hill or Bust & the Lights of Kek Lok Si Temple

August 1, 2025 by Dave3 Comments

My friend dropped me off at the base of Penang Hill. He had strongly recommended I climb this in the early morning, but the night before we were out until nearly midnight enjoying the Chinese New Year festivities. Borrowing his umbrella, a lifesaver from the hot tropical sunshine, I set out on the Heritage Trail. This path, founded in 1890, led nearly straight up the mountain, climbing some nearly 800 meters to the top. It followed the funicular … [Read more...]

Sensorio: The Seventh Heaven of Sight and Sound

August 1, 2025 by Tom BentleyLeave a Comment

Peanut butter and jelly, ice cream and cake. Things that have stood the test of time, and taste. But light and sound—those have been around much longer than the others, and their impact is elemental. At Sensorio in Paso Robles, you can feel that impact, sometimes in subtle tugging at your eyes and ears, sometimes in dazzling sweeps of color and feeling. Sensorio is Fourth of July with a graduate degree. Where it is, is the rolling hills of … [Read more...]

Saline Valley Warm Springs, Death Valley – August 2025

August 1, 2025 by DaveLeave a Comment

This is arguably the coolest, best and most intriguing oasis in the entire state of California. If one were to plant a hot spring in the most remote of locations, it would be here - in Saline Valley. Certainly one of California's most remote desert valleys and one of the state's longest dirt roads - these hot springs are at least 3 hours from any sort of paved road. One can enter Saline Valley via either the North (Inyo mountains) or South passes … [Read more...]
