My Visit to Singapore

January 29, 2021 by DaveLeave a Comment

My first visit to Singapore was about 10 years ago - it was just a weekend stop therefore despite being such a small country, I did not have time to fully explore the country. Although I did get out out of the city and visit the world renowned Singapore Zoo. This time (in early 2019) I stayed in the city. Singapore is known for its wide range of 5 star hotels. One of the most iconic and visually attractive due to its unique architecture and … [Read more...]

The Things You Carry, the Things You Leave Behind

July 7, 2019 by Tom Bentley7 Comments

When I was 16, I hitchhiked with my older brother from Los Angeles to Vancouver. Being lean and hungry types, we knew we needed fortification for the long journey. So it made perfect sense that we’d load our backpacks—already substantial, with their sturdy wood and metal frames—with canned foods of every type. Chili, fruit cocktail, soup. That one of the laden backpacks now weighed about as much as a sports car wasn’t that daunting until a day or … [Read more...]

With this looming rebirth of freedom, I am beginning to look into the wonderful (and complicated!) game of acquiring points as a means of knocking down the costs of airfare, lodging, restaurants, and … [Read more...]

A Layover Trip to Athens

February 1, 2019 by Steve Long5 Comments

It’s not everyday that I get to feel like I’m living in history, but that’s exactly how I felt looking at the rolling hills of Athens from the top of the Acropolis, images from 300 flashing in and out of my head (I know I know 300 is Sparta not Athens). I was on my way to Iceland from Singapore after attending a trade show on the island nation. There were no direct flights available; what’s more, there wasn’t even a simple connecting … [Read more...]

January 29, 2018 by Jess Dominguez.2 Comments

As a citizen of the world, your travelling mantra may revolve around two things: show respect towards other cultures and offer kindness whenever you can. So one of the appropriate things to do is leave tips after an amazing meal or a memorable service. But hold on to your money for now. Inasmuch as tipping feels good to the soul, it may do more harm than good. Not all countries appreciate it. The last thing you’d want during a trip is to find … [Read more...]
