5 Things Travelers Do Differently From Tourists – And How You Can Change Your Next Trip  

January 28, 2015 by Jay Deratany4 Comments

As we all know, not everyone who ventures beyond their home city or country has the same approach to travel.  Some are tourists and some are travelers. And it’s pretty easy to tell the difference…well, that’s not entirely accurate.  It’s pretty easy to spot a tourist, but the traveler tends to blend in, so you may not even notice he’s there at all. Tourists, you might say, stick to the beaten path and seek the stereotypical.  When they … [Read more...]

An Insiders Perspective: Night tour of Bahrain

January 24, 2015 by Dave6 Comments

In doing some research prior to my travel to Bahrain I stumbled upon a website advertising private tours. I emailed the owner, Hanan (she no longer offers tours) but she kindly agreed to meetup after work. This was a real insiders tour from someone who grew up in Bahrain and knows the island extremely well. Her diversity of interests, local knowledge and passion for both travel and for Bahrain were clearly evident. We immediately drove to some … [Read more...]

Often, they also celebrate bar and bat mitzvahs (coming of age ceremonies), weddings, and Jewish holidays in their ancestral homeland. Because … [Read more...]

Touchdown at Sunset, Lets go Explore Manama, Bahrain

December 27, 2014 by Dave2 Comments

I touched down gently at the Manama airport just prior to sunset after making several short regional flights, glad to have arrived to some warm and humid weather after rain and cold temps came to California the prior week. The last time I was in this area it was 47 degrees when I landed, sometime in September. The heat can be brutal in the summer here but by this time of year the temperatures have subsided considerably. I soon found myself … [Read more...]

Exploring Vienna the Best Way, by Bicycle!

December 20, 2014 by Dave2 Comments

Arriving in Vienna was a shock after the calm and small town feel of Bratislava we have enjoyed the past few days. We were deposited right in the Museum District - which is a busy section of the city filled with massive and imposing historical buildings in all directions. Vienna has so much to see that we quickly decided trying to see some of its impressive architectural offerings on foot was not a good idea. We have been here several times on … [Read more...]
