This is one of my most favorite cities in the world! Why? Because it’s clean, it’s green, everything is cheap and best of all, there are no TYPHOONS of any kind!

Trans-Jakarta City Bus, Indonesia
This is good news for travelers coming to Jakarta (Indonesia). Instead of traveling by taxis (which are more expensive) or with city buses or minivan-type public transport (which are more economical but without air conditioning system), Trans-Jakarta is much better in terms of safety, security, and comfort.
As for the …
Holland State Park
The best part about living in Michigan would have to be being surrounded by the Great Lakes. Most people think of Michigan as a cold state that has blizzards and snow all the time. Wel, in the winter yes, it can get like that. But we …

Lion Country Safari, Loxahatchee, FL
One of the coolest attractions in all of Florida is Lion Country Safari in Loxahatchee, FL in Palm Beach County. It’s about as close to going on Safari in Africa as most of us are ever going to get.

Liverpool Trip
Last year we traveled through the UK and one of our days we spent in Liverpool. We had a few good reasons to make a stop in this English city. For one, we are huge Beatles fans and so visiting Liverpool was like a pelgrimage for us. Besides the Beatles …
Little Brasstown Falls in Long Creek, SC

La Jolla, Ca
La Jolla, Ca is a beautiful place, and quite expensive at the same time. It isn’t very far from San Diego so you don’t have to stay here in order to come visit. I would suggest that you stay in San Diego and then come to La Jolla …
A Cheaper Travel to Boracay Islands
I’ve just discovered a very practical and cheaper way to enjoy Boracay Island. The very famous tropical island located 200 miles south of Manila where the beach is being claimed by the tourists as the finest in Asia. I just arrived from our 3 days 2 …
Whaleshark Adventure in Donsol
People have always told me to go to Donsol to see the whalesharks (butanding) as it is an out-of-this-world to actually swim beside the gentle giants. As my friend who lives in Bicol invited us to go there last month, I gladly accepted the invitation.
It turns out that …
Stourport-on-Severn, England
Stourport-on-Severn in north-west Worcestershire is a smallish town which is not usually mentioned very much, if at all, in the tourist guides, but which is well worth a visit. I live fairly close to Stourport (as it is usually abbreviated) and have watched with considerable interest over the last …

This place is an excellent attraction for those who are healthy and ready for a good climb. I traveled to Florence, Italy with a friend and found this treasure in a brochure at our hotel. The brochure states that there are 434 steps to get to the top of …
Lloret del mar
Lloret del mar is located on the east side of spain. It’s an old seaside town - very dated and full of tacky shops and ugly buildings.
The area is mainly full of tourists who go on package holidays to get drunk. It’s not a place for children.
I saw many …
Horanadu Annapoorneswari Temple
I still distinctly remember what was Hornadu Annapoorneswari Temple about four decades ago. The deity was housed in an old building, which had colored glass panes on the front windows, with a wooden Portico at the front. Late Sri.Venkatasubba Jois looked after the temple. He was an old man …
Barstow, CA
Barstow, CA. Is a good half way point between Vegas. Sort of anyway. This place has always left a sour taste in my mouth and I never really wanted to be there, and I think this is with good reason. Something about this place just doesn’t strike me as …
Winchester San Jose CA
If you ever get the chance to go to San Jose, California stop the Winchester Mystery Mansion. This is an amazing historical site of a crazy woman named Sarah Winchester.

Gatorland, Kissimmee, FL
From the time I was a Young’un, I have been visiting “Gatorland” which is in Orlando, FL. I always thought it was actually in Kissimmee, but when I looked up the address to put on this review, it gives an Orlando address! You learn something new everyday!
It is and …
San Francisco City (Lombard, Golden Gate and Pier 39)

Colt State Park, Bristol, RI
Having been born and raised in Rhode Island 48 years ago, you’d think I’d have experienced every tourist site and natural wonder there is in that small state, but no, I had not. Last year, when I went home for a visit, I went with my brother and his …
The Roman Colosseum
As with so many things in Rome, the Colosseum is one of those famous sites that you simply must see, at least once in your life, so it becomes a question of how to see it that is the issue. The first thing you must know is that even …
Golden and District Museum
One of the reasons that I don’t mind traveling through Western Canada so often for work purposes is that there are a wealth of interesting stops and points of interest, if you are prepared to take a few minutes out of your trip. One of the great features about …

Bethlehem, PA
Go to any town or city during the Christmas holiday season, and I would dare to say that no place is lit up like Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The entire place is lit from top to bottom, holiday tours are given in limos of various museums and Christmas Displays, and …
Key Largo, FL
The first time I ever visited Key Largo for a weekend, we stayed at a place called “Island Bay Resort”. It sounds large, but in fact, it is only 10 rooms and very private and quiet. The cottage we picked was a one bedroom cottage with an efficiency …

Long Island Beach, New Jersey
I visited New Jersey for a week in Manahawkin, which is about a ten minute drive from Long Beach Island. I was there in the late summer/early Autumn, and was told that the beaches were either extremely packed, or dead as a doornail in the off season.

Grand Palace in Bangkok, Thailand
This is the first place, i’ve visited in Bangkok. From the hotel, we managed to get a cab to the Grand Palace. But beware, do not get taxis offering a fix amount. Like for us, he offered 50 Baht for the trip. On our way, he then asked us …
Dreamworld, Gold Coast, Australia
The Gold Coast in Australia is the Australian equivalent of Florida-fabulous weather and beaches and of course, theme parks.
Dreamworld is one of the main theme parks at the Gold Coast and in my opinion the best for all the family.
Firstly it is HUGE. Pretty much impossible to do …
Munich
I’ve just come back from Munich and all I can say is Wow! This is a wonderful city. The atmosphere is unique. The beer is like no other beer I have tasted. It is really difficult to describe just how special Munich is but I’m going to try.
Munich manages …
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 …

Kyrenia, Cyprus
One of the first things I would recommend to anyone when going to Cyprus is to try any local cuisine, it may look disgusting but I promise you its some of the best food I’ve had.
I stayed in a village just outside of Kyrenia called Ozankoy, just south of …
Singapore
Singapore like Hong Kong is like a second home to me. I like to hop from one country to another. One of the reasons is the accessibility and the travel time is not so tedious. A lot of airline companies has various promotions, giving us super low fare to …
