Winchcombe Farm in Warwickshire

September 20, 2020 by Samantha PriestleyLeave a Comment

September had promised to stay fine, and so we headed off again, this time to Warwickshire. I’ve been to Stratford-Upon-Avon before, but other than that I didn’t know this area at all, so a couple of days spent exploring felt like just what we needed. We were staying at Winchcombe Farm, and it became clear pretty soon after arriving that we might not be doing as much exploring as we’d thought. Winchcombe Farm had everything we needed and wanted, … [Read more...]

Touring Washington DC with a Young Teenager

February 23, 2020 by Abdul RastagarLeave a Comment

When my son finished 6th grade, I promised to reward him with a trip to anywhere he wants, as long as it was centered on American history. I am a firm believer that true learning happens through classroom theory is paired with experiential learning. So we set out on a long weekend to bring his history lessons, past and future, to life. After a week of research and contemplation, he selected Washington, D.C. as his destination. Off we went on a … [Read more...]

Houttuyn Wellness River Resort – January 2020

January 1, 2020 by Dave2 Comments

The Houttuyn Wellness River Resort is a slice of serenity hidden away from the hustle and bustle of Paramaribo, the capital city of Suriname. Located only about a 30 minute drive from the city (or about an hour from Johan Adolf Pengel International Airport), the resort is built on the green riverbanks of the Suriname River. Opened in 2016 as the first wellness hotel and villa resort in the entire country. While there are a number of cozy … [Read more...]

3 Cruise Excursions Highlights in the Caribbean

October 24, 2019 by Shridhar KLeave a Comment

Scattered across the cerulean ocean is the Caribbean Islands, and the best time to visit these wonderful islands is from December to April when it’s slightly cooler and less humid. The average temperature is between 24-29°C, which makes these islands the perfect place to spend a few hours when traveling through the Caribbean Sea. Cruise excursions are one of the best ways to admire local destinations when you get off the ship. You could go for … [Read more...]

Exploring Paramaribo, Suriname the Fun Way!

October 15, 2019 by Dave9 Comments

After a nearly 13 hour car + van ride from Georgetown in Guyana which began at 4am and included a 4 hour border crossing (slow ferry a big part of this), I arrived in Paramaribo in the late afternoon. Exhausted after eating only an energy bar I found tucked away in my backpack given to me weeks ago by Jacki Ueng I checked into the Guesthouse Zin & Grand Cafe. For only $23/night it included a private room with AC and use of their pool. I soon … [Read more...]

Mellieha in Malta

September 13, 2019 by Samantha Priestley1 Comment

It’s always difficult trying to find reasonably priced holidays in the summer school break, so when I spotted this package deal to Malta I snapped it up for me, my husband, Tom and my two daughters, Eva, 12, and Lily, 10. I wasn’t sure what to expect, as Malta used to have the reputation of being a destination for older holiday makers, rather than families, but it seems the island is trying to change all that. Our resort, Mellieha, has the … [Read more...]

Sweet Treats In Omaha, Nebraska

August 24, 2019 by Allison Tibaldi2 Comments

Nebraska is the heart of cattle country, best known for its meat, not its sweets.  In Omaha, the sugar fairy has blessed the state’s largest city with a cluster of shops selling tempting confections that will make you forget all about the beef. Those in the know leave their diet at the state border. Old Market Candy Shop For a taste of yesteryear, Old Market Candy Shop sells mouth-watering treats. Try the chicken feet, pretzel rods dunked … [Read more...]

A Pub Tour of the United Kingdom

May 3, 2019 by Iain SmartLeave a Comment

There is nothing more traditional and stereotypically British than a classic Great British pub. In many small villages in the UK, a pub is the focal point of the community; a place where events are held, and parties are celebrated. How good the village pub is will often determine whether the village is worth visiting or indeed living in - a village is only as good as its pub. Whilst the British are known as lovers of pubs, they are also known … [Read more...]
