Summer Festivals in London

July 5, 2009 by HostelBookersLeave a Comment

Britain has its fair share of summer festivals, from the legendary Glastonbury to the crazy dressing up at Bestival on the Isle of Wight. But sometime the festival experience isn't all it's cracked up to be, with unpredictable weather, mud-soaked fields, grubby toilets and overpriced food putting a dampener on camping in the countryside.

Its the norm in the winter during the nights with merely 5 to 7 feet visibility. We landed around 9pm and arrived at our hotel around midnight just to catch the New Year's festivities. Drive from airport normally takes 25 minutes! Hahaha yea. Driver kept stopping every few seconds while getting … [Read more...]

Of Britain and Buses

April 28, 2009 by Carissa ChangLeave a Comment

Sometimes a seemingly simple task, upon first encounter, can turn out perplexing to the unbeknownst traveler like me. It started with the entryway into a bus. It wasn't that I didn't realize the door would be on the 'other side' of the mammoth vehicle; it was more of an initial disoriented hesitation of making my way to the door on the left side of the bus rather than on the right side. Stepping onto the bus's ledge, the professor leading our … [Read more...]

Save time and airfare by driving or taking the train to a getaway near you ... Like most people, you're likely watching your wallet more carefully these days and a big trip may not be on your list for this year.
