PEDRAZA SPAIN TRAVEL

Tuk-tuk public transport, Bangkok
As foreign tourists, we were not sure to use the city bus in Bangkok which was normally very crowded, while taxis were certainly expensive. Therefore, the choice fell on the tuk-tuk, the three-cycle vehicle. Our first experience with the tuk-tuk was, however, not very good. Recently right after we …

Vatican City / St. Peter’s Basilica
The Vatican is a very popular attraction, and it is a bit intimidating to try to see it all. This is one site that I would suggest taking a guided tour. The main issue is that it is easy to get overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude and scale of …

Holland Park in Surrey, Canada
