Hana Maui:A Perfect Getaway
Hawaii, in general, is one of the most beautiful places in the world. When one goes to Hana, Maui, however, the beauty is just unimaginable.

Mintons Tea Rooms
If you’re ever in the Eastwood/Moorgreen/Watnall area of Nottinghamshire with an hour or two to spare, you could do far worse than visit St. Mary’s Church, Greasley.

The Pros and Cons of Interstate 95
On all our trips to Florida, I-95 has loomed ahead as the most practical route. It may have a bad reputation for traffic upsets, but on our last trip down to St. Augustine, I-95 was an exceptionally pleasant ride. The lanes are well-kept, and in some places the route …

Yangon has no longer been the capital of Myanmar since they relocated it to Naypyidaw in 2006. But apart from Mandalay and Bagan, it is still the main tourist destination. I spent four nights and found that this city is worth to visit. I did not join any guided tour; …

Villa H52, Cap Camarine
