A Transcontinental Train that Transcends the Frontiers between West and East – Bucharest to Istanbul

August 6, 2020 by Teh Chin Liang2 Comments

Casting one last glance at the charming old streets and striking neo-Gothic buildings in Bucharest, I took a brisk stroll, with a heavy backpack strapped to my shoulder, slowly navigating my way to the train station. From there, I was about to embark on a long-haul overnight journey to Istanbul. Having walked incessantly for days in Bucharest, I was looking forward to long hours of doing nothing at all, just sitting still on the train and getting … [Read more...]

Visit Rovaniemi – The Official Hometown of Santa Claus®

August 5, 2020 by Jenny SilvennoinenLeave a Comment

What if I told you we have an overall population density of 1,98 persons per square kilometer, which is one of the lowest in Europe, more reindeer then people, the cleanest air and waters in the world. Yet we live in a modern city filled with services and even luxury. Our summer nights are light like the most romantic pink twilight, and that our summer temperatures are mild like the birds milk, as we Finnish people like to say. Would you believe … [Read more...]

Brazilian Cachaça trip Day 11: Curitiba and Brasilia

July 22, 2020 by Peter BanksLeave a Comment

When visiting Curitiba, any individual or group that has an interest in cachaça must visit Orlando Regis. It just so happened that while I was in Morretes, Bruna Gomes of Porto Morretes had suggested that I go visit Orlando, since I had time on my last day before my trip back to Brasilia. Thanks to her, I was able to set up some time with him. Orlando Regis and his wife have one of the largest collections of cachaça in the country. At over … [Read more...]

Cachaça trip Day 10: Morretes

July 17, 2020 by Peter BanksLeave a Comment

I repeated my morning walk around town, came back and ate breakfast, and headed out to Porto Morretes, traversing the same dangerous road that I had the previous day. This time, however, I had an appointment. When I got to the gates and pressed the buzzer, I was let in to the very private facility. The winding dirt driveway led to a modern, large facility, where workers scurried about from place to place. I was met at the main office by Bruna … [Read more...]

Cachaça trip Day 9: Morretes

July 12, 2020 by Peter BanksLeave a Comment

Morning in Morretes. I left the pousada because I woke early. Breakfast wouldn’t be served until eight. Clouds covered the not-so-distant-mountains, but the city was sunny. I walked along the quiet main road. People passed me on their way to work. Schoolchildren carried backpacks, walking in groups, excited for the school day. I crossed over the river on a slight bridge that carried the occasional car. Descending the opposite bank, I walked … [Read more...]

A Visit to the World’s Greatest Barbershop

July 1, 2020 by Dave4 Comments

About 60 mostly bearded fellows were lined up already - a count by our own estimate. And according to front man, chair number one and owner Alex Torreto, a slow day by his account. They often start lining up two hours before the shop even opens he said. I must digress. Central Frankfurt has a real lack of barbers, simply put - places where one can walk in the door and just get a damn haircut. Prior to my visit to Torreto, I stopped by 7 other … [Read more...]

Shore Diving in the Pacific Northwest

June 21, 2020 by Harry YorkLeave a Comment

My wife Amy and I decided to go scuba diving in the Seattle-Tacoma area while visiting my daughter on her 21st birthday. We found shores of the Puget Sound easy to get to, fun to scuba dive, and the waters teaming with interesting creatures. The Puget Sound has hundreds of shore diving locations. For planning, we picked three of the highest rated dive sites closest to the Seattle Tacoma Airport, just on the southern edge of Seattle: Redondo … [Read more...]
