Hiking the High Coast of Sweden

January 10, 2024 by Anders PalmLeave a Comment

Here I am, overlooking a part of the beautiful High Coast of Sweden. The lovely view is thanks to a geological phenomenon where some parts of this area started rising as the heavy Ice Age glaciers melted away. The High Coast, or "Höga Kusten" in Swedish, is a unique stretch of coastline located in the northeast of Sweden, and the water you see in the distance is the Gulf of Bothnia, a northern extension of the Baltic Sea. The remarkable … [Read more...]

Each year, given its attractions (and proximity to those major cities), it attracts an increasing number of tourists and residents. I have visited New Braunfels many times over the last 15 years, so I’ve had the opportunity to see its rapid growth from a small town into one of the best cities to visit in Texas. Its roots trace back to 1845 when German … [Read more...]

Holiday in Erbil, Iraq

December 1, 2023 by Dave2 Comments

Despite my visit in early June, the temperatures were already sweltering during the day hovering around 39 degrees. Not one for sitting around inside or using taxis, I spent most of my several days here wandering the city on foot, trying to stay hydrated. I have yet to meet any international tourists and I'm ok with that. The markets are chaotic and on the weekends (Friday and Saturday's) are particular busy. Everyone seems to have their own … [Read more...]
