Experience Sunshine Coast my way

September 7, 2015 by Marie NievesLeave a Comment

When you are leading a stressful life as I was, you usually do not even realize it until it is too late. Only after some types of trauma people do start paying attention to the tempo of their lives and how much stress they truly feel. Also, living in modern cities additionally produces a great level of stress which does not occur in the county. Long commutes to/from work, long lines at supermarkets, traffic jams and too many people constantly … [Read more...]

Scuba Dive In The Gili Islands

September 6, 2015 by Nikki Near And FarLeave a Comment

Just a ferry ride away from Bali are the beautiful islands of Gili Trawangan, Gili Air, and Gili Meno. I stayed on Gili “T”, where I put my new scuba certification skills to the test. And this was the absolute perfect location to do it! The water visibility was amazing and the ocean was teaming with an incredible variety of coral and fish. When I arrived and checked into Gili Yoga, I was half-drugged from the dramamine I had taken, just … [Read more...]

Something for Everyone: 4 Types of Tourists in Africa

August 26, 2015 by Eran Feinstein1 Comment

People travel to distant and exotic climes for a variety of reasons: a box on their bucket list, inner personal experience, cross-cultural understanding, or simple rest and relaxation. East Africa, and Tanzania in particular, gives its visitors everything they could wish in a single trip; then, leaves them coming back for more. Whether you’ve saved for months and planned your trip to Africa down to the last detail or just hopped on the next … [Read more...]

Ever Considered Sailing in the BVI?

August 11, 2015 by Dave BeanLeave a Comment

What is a holiday of a lifetime? We have all heard this claim at one time or another... but in our neck of the woods we hear it all the time. Things like "best ever...", "can't wait to do it again...", "at last we found paradise..." are just a few of the comments that have become synonymous with a sailing vacation in the British Virgin Islands. Surprisingly... many people don't know that such vacations are possible and many that are aware that … [Read more...]

Best Beaches in Bali

July 25, 2015 by Nikki Near And Far5 Comments

White sandy beaches. Coconuts. Aquamarine waters. Colorful coral. Epic surf spots. That’s the vision dancing in people's heads when they book a beach trip to Bali, and with a little luck, that’s what they’ll find. But while Bali’s beaches can be all of the above, overly crowded tourist spots and heaps of trash piles can leave not-in-the-know vacationers wondering if the fabled beaches really exist. On my arrival in Bali, I fell victim to … [Read more...]

Sandboarding in Israel

July 9, 2015 by Jacki Ueng2 Comments

When in the Swiss Alps, go skiing, when in the Himalayas climb a mountain, when in the Maldives go Scuba Diving. ... when in the Negev Desert, go Sandboarding!  I have always preferred the sun over the snow and as a result Israel has always been one of favorite destinations.

Layovers are great*

June 27, 2015 by DanielLeave a Comment

I am fortunate enough to participate in non-rev travel. This has its obvious ups and downs. I know where to find free WiFi in Houston International. I've spent dozens of nights sleeping in airports. And I’m certainly no stranger to being stuck in cities I’d rather not be in. When I was marooned in Paris last November, I was faced with the difficult decision of how to spend the next 24 hours. I was exhausted from a brief romp around Spain and … [Read more...]
