Scarborough Bluffs in Toronto, Canada
The Scarborough Bluffs were named after the famous chalk hills in Scarborough, England by Elizabeth Simcoe, wife of the first lieutenant governor of Upper Canada. But these days, everybody who’s familiar with this place loves to call it simply as Bluffer’s Park.

Slash Proof Waist Money Belt
Travelling experience would be only memorable if I returned safely home with all my valuables intact. For me the worst part of travelling was to take care of my valuables, which I found it rather boring and irritating. Even while enjoying myself I would always be worried about the …

Universal Studios, Orlando
Unlike it’s counterpart, Islands of Adventure, I loved Universal Studios. I haven’t been there in a few years, but I loved it. I have so many memories of the old rides and how corny or cheap they were. But they were still wonderful to me.
My mother was up …

Ocean’s in Glass Hawaii Souvenirs

Manila Taxi
