The Rift Valley Mountain Trek to Petra, Jordan

September 29, 2016 by Dave1 Comment

Day 1 We began our hike under the 2pm sun from Dana Guesthouse, at about 4,300 feet (1300 meters) above sea level. The beating sun shone down on us intensified by the absence of shade and starkness of our rocky surroundings. Fortunately the hike descended down the side of the rugged mountains until we reached the canyon wash. The three of us were the only ones here - perhaps we were slightly nutty considering really very few people make this … [Read more...]

How I Had a 5D4N Budget Vacation in Singapore for P7200 (RM 620)

September 23, 2016 by Jose Carlo2 Comments

So I've just grabbed a three days off from my work here in Malaysia and was wondering where to go to? Since I have limited resources, I've selected the two countries accessible by bus transport from Malaysia - Thailand and Singapore. With time consideration, I heard from a local colleague that a bus ride to Thailand will take me 8 hours to Hatyai (but not yet Bangkok - only on the border of Malaysia-Thailand) and only 4 hours to … [Read more...]

September 21, 2016 by Patricia PagenelLeave a Comment

Jericoacoara - Think sand dunes, warm water, strong winds, and epic kiteboarding sessions. Oh, and a cold Caipirinha while watching the sunset from the sand dunes after a hard day... What used to be a small fishing village has long become a mecca for wind water sports such as kiteboarding and windsurfing. Located 300 km west of Fortaleza, Jericoacoara, or Jeri as it is commonly known, is a great place to experience windy activities but also to … [Read more...]

September 13, 2016 by Habeeb Salloum1 Comment

By Habeeb Salloum and Muna Salloum ----------- We were excited and so were our stomachs as we headed out for a three-day tour of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia’s paradise isle. Leaving our immaculate 4-star hotel, Sydney’s Hampton Inn, we made our way through Cape Breton’s green coastline to Indian Brooks. The scene before us was breathtaking. We continued and a few kilometers later, reached the panoramic Lookout of St. Ann’s with seven more … [Read more...]

A Perfect Picture Paradise, Pissouri Cyprus

September 12, 2016 by Dave9 Comments

After another epic yet challenging trip in Jordan followed by the stresses of travelling in Lebanon I was more then ready to go somewhere and 'do nothing'. However, one never really knows if your perception of a relaxing destination will actually meet your expectation once you arrive. Time and time again I've been disappointed when looking for the "perfect" place to relax - a place that is not overly touristy, has a good vibe, is surrounded by … [Read more...]
