Beyond the Greens: Discovering the Ancient Soul of Serik, Turkey

February 17, 2026 by Tom RoserLeave a Comment

Belek may be world-famous for its luxury golf resorts, but the heart of the region beats a few miles inland in Serik. Step away from the Mediterranean shoreline and the polished Riviera vibe quickly gives way to massive Roman stonework, quiet local streets, and rugged canyons where the water turns a postcard shade of turquoise. It’s the kind of place where you can sleep in a five-star resort and, within the same day, stand inside a … [Read more...]

Beyond the 19th Hole: The Cultural Significance of the Thai Caddie

February 9, 2026 by Sally CortesLeave a Comment

In several parts of the world, golf means a quiet, solitary walk punctuated by the occasional clatter of clubs. However, in Thailand, the game is a shared, vibrant social ceremony. The moment you step onto the grass, you are joined by a partner in a wide-brimmed hat who knows the break of the green better than the laws of physics. While many of you might see them as a luxury perk, the Thai caddie is actually a profound symbol of Thailand’s social … [Read more...]

The island of Phu Quoc is located in the Gulf of Thailand, located closer to the Cambodia border than the Vietnam border. It is an extremely popular and family friendly destination for tourists due to the fact that unlike mainland Vietnam which requires visas for many nationalities, Phu Quoc offers a visa exemption for citizens of numerous countries.

The Best Gaming Halls in the World to Visit

January 30, 2026 by Una KenshoLeave a Comment

Even if you're not a serious gambler, casinos have a way of making an impression. Sometimes it’s the actual building. In some cases it’s the people. Other times it’s just the feeling that you’ve stepped into a different world for a couple of hours. Around the world, a handful of gaming halls have become places you visit as much for the atmosphere as for the games. Some are dripping in history. Others are shiny, oversized, and modern. The best … [Read more...]

Ystad, Southern Sweden – December 2025

December 1, 2025 by DaveLeave a Comment

This picturesque town is a photographers dream, especially during late spring and summer. If the town was only historical buildings (of which there are plenty) it would be a beautiful place - but then throw in the gorgeous array of flowers and blooming trees during this time of year, and if its not too much to ask - warm days with lots of sunshine! For a small town (the core is only about 17,000 people) Ystad packs a punch for tourism. There are … [Read more...]

St Moritz, Courchevel, Chamonix, Jackson Hole… there’s a whole multitude of places to head to if you’re looking for a winter break spent on the slopes. If I had to pick just one destination, though, it would be British Columbia every time. Specifically, the mountain resort town of Whistler.

Chasing Sunsets in Zambales

November 1, 2025 by Junfil OlarteLeave a Comment

The minibus wound its way along the National Highway, leaving Manila's concrete jungle behind as the landscape gradually transformed into a tapestry of green fields and distant mountains. I was headed to Zambales, a province on the western coast of Luzon that had long captured my imagination with promises of pristine beaches and hidden coves. After four hours of travel, the familiar salt-tinged breeze of the West Philippine Sea welcomed me to … [Read more...]
