Best Summer Event Resorts in Colorado

A Colorado summer is loaded with things to do like camping, rafting, ziplining, thrilling attractions, off-roading, hiking, biking and on and on. But what really makes a Colorado … [Read more...]

Suppose that, you have to write an essay on the weird or unusual dishes of the world. In this article, I am going to let you know … [Read more...]

Alsace-Food-Tours-Alsaciette

I visited the Alsace region of France for a quick weekend over the American Thanksgiving holiday.  I flew into Geneva, Switzerland and then took a train to Basel before transferring to a local train to Colmar, France.  On quick trips such as this, I avoid car rentals.  I prefer to take advantage of public transportation and the deluge of culture that accompanies it.  On this particular trip, I was really looking forward to trying the food and … [Read more...]

Sydney is a city people save up to see, and spend years waiting for the opportunity. With great culture and beautiful scenery, it's no wonder why Sydney is so popular.

Truly a Special Place, Chamonix in the French Alps

November 23, 2017 by Dave1 Comment

I have been fortunate to have visited France a number of times - but by far the trip that has stood out in my mind over the years was a trip to Chamonix in the summer with my brother as part of a longer trip backpacking through parts of Europe. Traveling on train from near Geneva to Chamonix is anywhere from 2 to 4 hours - we felt good because we had a Eurorail pass which covered most train travel within Europe for 30 days. But at the time we … [Read more...]
