If you are a budget traveler, this place is a little expensive for the amount of time it takes to go through it. This is honestly one of the most interesting places I've been. It's not really a place to showcase the crystal's that they can make, but rather a showcase of artists that have used the cr...

The atmosphere around Vienna during the christmas market season is amazing. Just browsing through the streets with market stands on either side, the smell of roast chesnuts and the warmth of the mulled spiced wine all combine to create a real thrill for all the senses. The crowds may be a bit much f...

Last month I thought of a little bit cultural education :D ... so I went to Salzburg (city) in Austria. The city where once Mozart lived!
When I arrived at Salzburg I couldn't believe my eyes! It was so beautiful: Most of the buildings were very old and gave the whole town a little mediaeval touch...

Mayrhofen is relatively large for an Alpine ski town. The town offers a wide variety of skiing as it sits between two peaks, Penken and Ahorn. Other ski areas are also close by.

The Austrians know how to 'do' Christmas! The Salzburg Christmas Markets are amazing - you can get everything from tree baubles to caramelised nuts to Sheepskin slippers to candles, bowls, table cloths and hat and scarves.
The main market is in Domplatz, outside Dom St Peter. The neighbouring mar...

From here y...

What can I say? Simply one of the best Zoo's I have been too. The fact that Pandas and Polar Bears rear young is a great sign of success. The layout is fantastic although some parts are a little uphill and take a little out of you but it really is worth it. The tropical house is amazing with freefly...
