Malta is a small island but it has probably the highest density of things to see and do per square kilometre of anywhere I've been. I know that sounds like a brochure. It's not.

Give Malta a week and you'll see what … [Read more...]

But for travellers planning a month or longer, the differences between Portugal's two major cities start to matter in ways that no weekend can reveal. I have spent extended time in both.

48 Hours in Oslo, Norway: The Perfect Weekend Itinerary
Oslo in winter doesn’t try to impress with postcard-blue skies.

A small excerpt: “A few years ago now I spent some time in India. One of the more lasting impressions I have from that period was the degree to … [Read more...]
