Why I Love The Travel Community

May 5, 2021 by Dylan B. RainesLeave a Comment

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.” - Mark Twain The world is full of people who travel extensively. They may be travel bloggers who create content from the places they visit, a group of friends embracing upon a long-distance cycling journey, the Rick Steves touring type, or adventurers of all sorts who move around Planet Earth to discover the wonders that exist in this place. Personally, I have traveled most of … [Read more...]

Travel Blogger of the Year

February 15, 2020 by DaveLeave a Comment

A story about finding your own road, rather than chasing a destination, has won travel writer Erik Gauger the title of Travel Blogger of the Year. Gauger's winning story 'The Places Between' highlights the joy of travel as a journey of discovery, rather than focusing on a destination as the end goal.

Downhills Don’t Come Free by Jerry Holl

And this proposed journey of 3,600 miles was by a man who had spent little time on a bicycle and had not trained prior to his ride. Nor did he have any training on basic bike repairs. Jumping into the saddle he … [Read more...]

Cycling Trails in the USA: Where to Go for Cycling?

March 19, 2019 by Tomas KLeave a Comment

Inspired by the Tour of France of 1978, some fella called Freddie Mercury used to chant on how much he wanted to ride his “bicycle, bicycle, bicycle”. The truth is you do not have to be an expert for riding a bicycle, to go from one place to another on two wheels, you do not have to be a scholar; everything is learned on the way. The route strengthens us as people and even sometimes shows us facets that we did not believe we had. In any case, … [Read more...]

The Pull of Haystack Rock: Why I Keep Coming Back

January 14, 2019 by Courtney MyersLeave a Comment

I'm from a sleepy town in the Triad region of North Carolina. All my life, my parents took us kids to the closest beach on the east coast there was: good, old-fashioned Myrtle. Even back in the mid-1990s, it was a treasure trove of commercialism, with high-rise condos juxtaposed against centuries-old motels still somewhat holding on, amid the tearing down of the old Pavillion and the installation of a brand-new boardwalk. My toes never touched … [Read more...]

Four Reasons To Visit Idaho Wine Country

November 26, 2018 by Jaime Scilingo1 Comment

Idaho Wine Country

When you think of a romantic vacation to wine country, you probably envision a scene of endless vineyards in California, Italy, or France. Those, of course, are the most romantic, and the three most popular wine destinations for Americans.  The idea of traveling to Idaho to explore its multiple American Viticultural Areas (AVA) may seem bizarre, but trust me.  Exploring the Idaho wine regions will surprise you in the most delightful ways. Idaho … [Read more...]

What to see and do in Boise, Idaho

July 10, 2018 by Ariane ColenbranderLeave a Comment

Currently the fastest-growing city in the US, downtown Boise also happens to be easily walkable, laid out in a grid with Grove Plaza at its heart and Julia Davis Park at its southern edge. Within the space of a short week, I got to explore some of the best the city has to offer. Street Art Head straight to Freak Alley (between 8th and 9th Streets closest to Bannock Street). Colorful styles of graffiti abound everywhere you look and the … [Read more...]
