We spent all our time in western Europe, enjoying life, trying to live as cheaply as possible, and aside from worrying about money and normal logistics, our travels were highly enjoyable. I remember meeting other young travelers who spoke highly of Prague and the Czech Republic … [Read more...]

Located seemingly the 'middle of nowhere" this alpine community of approximately 200 people dates from the 1860s including a post office that opened in 1863. Located within the very sparsely populated Alpine County (only approximately 1200 people total live within the county), Markleyville is the largest community.

Visit Minsk, Belarus – December 2021

December 1, 2021 by DaveLeave a Comment

Off the beaten path for most visitors to Europe, the country is slowly opening up to tourism - with the waiving of a visa for a number of countries for short term visitors flying into and out of Minsk - which began in early 2017. The airport is not located within the city - rather it can take up to an hour to reach the city center. Refreshingly one doesn't find the crowds and tourist buses all pining to see the same historic sites as one would … [Read more...]
