Tasik Kenyir
I have been to Tasik Kenyir before, which is situated in Trengganu, Malaysia. One thing is for sure if you want to travel in a place as remote as Tasik Kenyir, one’s mouth need to be ‘insured’. What is that? What I mean is that one has …
Shanghai Aquarium
The Shanghai aquarium is located in Lujiazui across the Huangpu river in Pudong. Although it seems in a rather strange location �seemingly worlds away from the rest of Shanghai- it is a great place to visit if you love marine life. Unlike the disappointing and rather depressing …
Whisky River
Whisky River is the name of a bar and nightclub in Charlotte, North Carolina owned by NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt Junior. There are plans to turn the bar into a chain so everything there is given the Charlotte name to differentiate it between future clubs. We went when we …
Alcatraz Island
In San Francisco, I have been to this great island called Alcatraz Island. This place is a little peculiar in the sense that there was a guarded tour to the cell house and there were things to be told and learned. I have been to this place …
Liberty Science Museum
The Liberty Sciene Museum opened recently after being closed for renovations. Where are the renovations? While its true things are different than before it was closed it is still a disappointment. The fact that it is a disappointment is also a disappointment. This should be …

Tunisia

Dominican Republic Travel

Beijing Metro
An advocate of public transportation, I happened to be in Beijing and decided to stray away from the common medium of taxi riding and try the metro.
Everytime you’re in a new city, you should definitely try the metro system out, if it’s available. The metro in Beijing was …
Singapore Mass Rapid Transport
Mass Rapid Transportation or often be called as MRT has become people’s common transportation in Singapore. I have ever heard lots of positive points of that transportation mode before I was finally have a chance to visit Singapore for a vacation. That’s why I was eager to try MRT, …
Sandals Royal Bahamian Spa Resort & Offshore Island
For our honeymoon, my husband and I went to Sandals in Nassau, Bahamas. When I used to see the commercials I always wondered if it was really as nice as they made it out to be. I mean do people really “wait a lifetime for a moment …
Funtown USA
While visiting Scarborough, Maine a few years back, we were looking for things to do besides the beach which we spent most of our time. When we asked at our Cottage’s office, they made a few suggestions for nearby activities. One they suggested was Funtown and Splashtown USA …
Pickwick Landing State Park Campground
My family and I have camped at the Pickwick Landing State Park campground three times. We stayed there twice last summer and recently spent a long weekend there for the Easter holiday. We enjoy this campground very much and it is one of our favorites.
The campground is very well …
Park Hall Countryside Experience, Shropshire, UK
The Park Hall Countryside Experience is an interesting farm park in north Shropshire, in the Midlands of England. It does unfortunately suffer from a slightly irritating web site which loads a video at once without being asked to, and one which includes a loud and annoying soundtrack at that, …
Boracay
I have been to Boracay only once, and unlike most people who are excited about going there, I loath the place. The only reason I am writing this review is to make other people aware of what happens in Boracay. This place reminds me only of violence, and …
Jungle Boat Cruise, Adventureland, Walt Disney World, FL
Another original Walt Disney World Ride that has been there since Disney World opened in 1971 is the infamous “Jungle Cruise Ride” in Adventureland. Now you know many people I know, no longer bother with this ride. I don’t always but if I have time I do. It’s …
ReefHQ Aquarium Townsville Queensland Australia
Last 16 October 2007, my sister and I went to ReefHQ Aquarium in Townsville Queensland Australia. My Aussie friend told us that we shouldn’t miss the great aquatic scenes there. The fee is supposed to be $21.50 each which I think was not-so-affordable but then I still decided to …
Jurong Birdpark
Birds? It is one of the creatures I love. Unfortunately, our zoos exhibits only limited number of bird species, so when I got an opportunity to visit Singapore, I made sure that Jurong Birdpark should be one of my iterinary.
Jurong Birdpark is in Jurong Hill Singapore, so …
Cagsawa Ruins
Cagsawa Ruins is one of the few tourist destinations in the rather sleepy Legazpi City other than the world-famous Mayon Volcano. Finding the place is not that hard because the locals are very helpful and there is a rather large signage on the road leading to it. The road …
Magic Kingdom Orlando Florida
Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom is located in Orlando, Florida. We went there on the fourth of July in 1999 as part of a ten day vacation. We bought a four day hopper pass so we could visit all the Disney Parks that week. I hated the traffic, …
Jenolan caves
Jenolan caves are in the Blue Mountains area, about 2.5 hours from Sydney. There are no buses going there, so you either have to join trip or drive on your own. The road is easy until the last part; it is very windy, quite narrow and has a lot of …

Strong Current Oahu
Strong current is one of my favorite surf wear brand clothes stores on the north shore for cool looking clothes to buy for myself or as gifts to send to my friends and family on the mainland for birthdays and other holidays. You should take a moment to …

As far as I am Russian but for the last four years I have been living in Italy, I go to Russia to visit my relatives and friends every year. This summer I decided to go there in August. Bad choice! Cuase this is the period when almost all …

The Maine Lobster Festival, Rockland, ME
Every year in August, the town of Rockland, Maine holds it’s annual Lobster Festival. I try to be in attendance just as often as I can be. Never mind the scrumptious lobster, there is so much going on here and so much good seafood, I wouldn’t want …
Camsur Wakeboarding Complex (CWC) (Beginner’s POV)
Went to Camsur Wakeboarding Complex (CWC) in Pili, Camarines Sur, Philippines for the first time last June 11, 2010. CWC is only a few minutes ride from the Naga airport. A plane ride from Manila to Naga takes less than an hour and it’s perfect for a …

My family and I were in Southern Florida not long ago so we decided to stop by the Everglades. This was a dream come true of sorts because I had always seen documentaries on the Everglades but I had never been there. I was …
Lanzarote
Lanzarote is a truly marvelous place to spend a vacation. I do not recommend this place to a younger crowd as it doesn’t offer much as night entertainment. There are tons of little trinket shops, but I recently found out that it is not worth it to purchase from …
EZ Travel Inn Staff And Service
Since I am a student and also broke I have to stay at some pretty inexpensive places while I am traveling and this usually means that my rooms are either pretty dirty or they are dangerous. If they are neither of these then I usually find that 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 …
Penang Toy Museum, Penang
I read about this Museum on a pamphlet at a tourist stations. The brochure used words like “impressive” “imaginative” “unexpectly creative” and “must see” Granted it was an advertising brochure but these were quotes from visitors so I thought it would be an outing that could be enjoyed by the …

Mary King’s Close, Edinburgh
For years, I had heard tales of a street which had been cut off from the City of Edinburgh centuries ago and then was built over and left as it had been. I thought this was fanciful, but, upon enquiry, it turned out to be true. In Edinburgh …

Emigrant Springs State Heritage Area is located in Eastern Oregon. It is off I84 about 25 miles southeast of Pendleton. The thing that intrigues me about many of the Oregon State Parks is their historical past. This park and …
Belfast Maine
I have to say there is not a place I have been to yet that brings me the comfort and peace that Maine does. More specifically, it is Belfast that I really love. Once I smell that beautiful salty air, I know I am where I belong. It is …

Guinea-Bissau Rubane Island
Funnily, although Guinea-Bissau is a country which is near the sea, I could hardly go to swim in their beaches as there were too many mangroves. In fact, our house when we were living there was right in front of the sea but there was no access because …
