College or university life is really exciting for most students. It gives the students the much craved independence. You stay away from home and can basically make your own decisions. However, this life is not all roses. If not well handled, it can ruin your entire life. Also, there are security concerns that come with being in college.

Cruising the Fjords of Patagonia

February 4, 2019 by Abdul Rastagar2 Comments

Few places around the world evoke as much myth and awe as Chile’s Patagonia region.

This is where land meets sea, where ocean currents are funneled through narrow gorges opening to cavernous bays, where innumerable fjords and glaciers carve through rocky massifs. Surrounded by only water for thousands of kilometers in three … [Read more...]

The Evolution of Travel

December 22, 2018 by Dave12 Comments

Long gone are the days of Internet cafes where one would see travelers hunched over keypads staring at klutzy box like computer screens - often in the mornings or evenings after spending the day sightseeing. Today one is more likely to see one staring at a mobile phone - with travelers having … [Read more...]

Road Trip Part 4: The Salton Sea and Grand Canyon

October 29, 2018 by Steve Taylor1 Comment

In my early days of back-to-back cross-country road trips, my knowledge of photography was lacking, and my equipment was limited to a subpar cell phone camera. I have since learned the value of a good DSLR or mirrorless camera, as well as the versatility of a drone in capturing travel related photos. Still, I look back on my old road trip pictures with a nostalgia that's due in small part to their lower quality. It reminds me more vividly where I … [Read more...]

In this article, I walk you through the highlights and explain why you should consider exploring beyond the well-trodden city of Prague.   GETTING IN From … [Read more...]
