Ramona Bruland, Adventure, Lifestyle & Adventure TV Host

April 5, 2014 by DaveLeave a Comment

While browsing Twitter I stumbled across Ramona's outdoor and adventure accomplishments. Discovering that she is originally from Adelaide and with a recent trip to South Australia including Adelaide, Kangaroo Island and Barossa Valley still fresh in the mind - this became a timely interview. Adrenaline and outdoor junkies take note - Ramona is just as comfortable carving tracks down the side of a mountain as she is jumping out of a plane or … [Read more...]

Unusual holidays – volunteering in Zimbabwe

March 8, 2014 by Anna Lysakowska2 Comments

After I decided to volunteer at Antelope Park in Gweru in Zimbabwe many people asked me if I really wanted to go there. Everyone is afraid of something; I was afraid of big dogs. That is partly why I wanted to travel there - to test myself and overcome my fears. 'Where else in the world' – like the motto of Antelope Park says, can you walk with lions? When I reached Zimbabwe for the first couple of hours I felt afraid - not about the animals I … [Read more...]

T Up: Thank God for the Oil Companies!

November 27, 2013 by John EdwardsLeave a Comment

JOHN M. EDWARDS, part owner of a privately held oil and natural gas concern based in Houston and New Orleans, gushes on about one of nature’s most valuable resources: petroleum! You can’t get to a rainforest without any transport to get you there. Luckily most major oil companies like Chevron and Shell have absolutely no interest in damaging the primary rainforests of the Amazon and Congo, although there is always some drilling on the edges … [Read more...]

Serve me up a bowl of Whistler

November 17, 2013 by Martin NolanLeave a Comment

Editor's note: It has been a number of years since we've been back to Whistler. Nice photos - really tempting to return now! In any other walk of life a bowl is.....well, just something curved that you eat cereal from. Yeah, it is pretty useful, but it’s definitely not exciting or sexy. But if you’re skiing in Canada a bowl is something completely different. If you mention a bowl around a resort, suddenly people perk up, they listen to every … [Read more...]

A Weekend in Niagara

October 18, 2013 by Stephanie MayoLeave a Comment

Horseshoe falls

A weekend in Niagara was a great way to wrap up the summer.  Bright lights, attractions abound, shows, casinos and the beautiful landscape of parks and the world famous Niagara Falls made it feel like an amusement park for adults and children alike, or like Canada's Las Vegas. A trip to Niagara affords an endless supply of things to do and see, from the thundering Niagara Falls where you can Journey Behind the Falls and ride the Maid of the … [Read more...]

Find the Ideal Holiday to Suit your Favourite Climate

September 3, 2013 by John Rooney1 Comment

Unless you're a fan of wind and drizzle it is unlikely that a UK holiday can fulfil your dreams in terms of climate - but that doesn't necessarily mean that you are desperate to find the hottest and sunniest locations. As well as a veritable cornucopia of cultures to enjoy there is also a wide range of climates to experience but, depending on what sort of holiday you're looking for, where is the best place to go and when?
