Pucon – Nature’s Playground

January 23, 2019 by Abdul Rastagar2 Comments

Chile sure has a lot of laid back and beautiful rural cities. And of all of these, Pucon has to be my favorite so far. The town lies on the shores of sprawling and beautiful Lago Villarrica, at an elevation of 227 meters, and surrounded in all directions by dramatic peaks covered in lush, green forests. Above all towers the glacier of the great volcano. Like the eye of Sauron, but perhaps less sinister, it keeps constant vigil over the valley … [Read more...]

From Los Angeles to Bogota – a Day Trip

January 19, 2019 by Abdul Rastagar2 Comments

Yup, you read the headline right. I made a day trip to Bogota, Colombia from Los Angeles, USA. I'm probably not the first one to do it, but I bet not many people have done it before. So how'd it happen? Mostly through my opportunism: I managed to squeeze in a stop in Bogota while on my way to Santiago, Chile. It wasn't really on my original plans but I had a choice of two flights - one with a 4-hour layover in Lima, Peru and one with a 16-hour … [Read more...]

January 16, 2019 by Steve MirskyLeave a Comment

The concept of taking a road trip sounds carefree and largely based on serendipity. But after rearranging your schedule and marking time on your calendar, the realization sets in that you need a planned itinerary and well equipped vehicle to get you to the most scenic routes and can't-miss sights. It helps to have comfort and navigational assistance like you get in Chevy's 2019 Equinox. I recently tried it out on a coastal road trip to … [Read more...]

Magical Mo’orea – a Stay at the Hilton Mo’orea Lagoon Resort & Spa

January 6, 2019 by Dave8 Comments

Words that come to mind when referring to the island of Mo'orea include ethereal, mysterious, remote, undeveloped and exotic. I've long built up the mystique of this island in my mind based upon stories my mother related from a several month trip she took to the South Pacific in the 1960s. Mo'orea was by far her favorite island in the French Polynesia. While Mo'orea has certainly changed since those days, a visit to the island is like walking … [Read more...]
