Barong Tagalog Beyond the Formal Shirt
First Seeing the Barong Tagalog from the Outside My name is Anton. I'm from Siberia. In 2022, I moved to the Philippines. Before that, the Philippines meant sun, sea, and friendly people to me. Nothing unusual — a fairly standard picture for someone looking at a country from the outside. I had never heard of the Filipino shirt called the Barong Tagalog. It never occurred to me that the Philippines had such a recognizable symbol. That's how … [Read more...]
Empire Mine, Grass Valley California – August 2026
The 'big dog' was one of California's largest, most productive and longest lasting mines having been founded in 1850 (based on gold found in rock outcroppings on the surface) and remained in operation until 1956 (although it closed temporarily during World War II).

But the city has about 660,000 residents, and they don't spend their weekends paying $26 for a cocktail. I flew in on February 12, 2026, with a plain rule for myself: three days, under $400 total, flight not counted. I stayed off the Strip for almost all of it. I … [Read more...]
Atlantic City – The Best Places 2026
Atlantic City has always had a couple of personalities. There’s the version most people know: casino lights, packed restaurants, concerts, and nights that run longer than planned. Then there’s the quieter side that shows up in the morning, when people are walking the beach with coffee in hand or sitting along the Boardwalk watching the ocean. That’s probably why Atlantic City pulls people in. A weekend here can mean a little bit of everything. … [Read more...]
Tallinn has Captured my Heart
Tallinn is a city that feels like it’s been sketched from two different dreams: one medieval, one modern. Its Old Town - all cobbled lanes, spired churches and honey‑coloured stone - is a UNESCO‑listed wonder that looks almost too perfect to be real. But step beyond those ancient walls and you’ll find a city pulsing with creativity, digital innovation and a Nordic‑Baltic cool that’s entirely its own. For example, beyond the Old Town lies … [Read more...]

How to Avoid the Most Common Cruise Health Risks
Cruise ship headlines can make ocean travel feel a lot riskier than it actually is. Most ruined vacations stem from ordinary, entirely preventable problems that get handled far too late. The CDC Vessel Sanitation Program typically logs only 10 to 14 total notable norovirus outbreaks across the entire cruise industry in an average year, and when you board a ship, you're entering a busy, highly managed environment where everyday issues like stomach … [Read more...]
