THE ACROPOLIS
In my opinion, the Acropolis is one of our planet’s most fascinating places. This 150 meter high limestone plateau was the original Athens. When the city’s population grew to about 250,000, people started moving down to the surrounding areas. The Acropolis was one of 20 finali...

I agree to go in the afternoon; there was hardly a line when I went. This museum is well worth its entrance fee. There is so much to see.
I would recommend spending some time in the exhibits before the Sistine chapel. I saw many people walking through the exhibits without looking at the pieces jus...

Our Shanghai tour guide asked us if we would like to experience the Maglev train, when I found out how fast it was, and I couldn't pass it up. I'm glad to have had this opportunity though it wasn't part of the original package; our tour guide suggested it, and fit it into the schudule she had alrea...

This place is south of Mammoth Lakes, CA and north of Bishop, CA along I-395. At a little restaurant called Tom's Place (7,000+ft), you turn onto a wiggly road UP to Rock Creek. It's maybe 10 miles and all along the way there are campsites off the road to car camp, where they would hike Rock Creek C...

There are many elephant camps in Thailand, especially in the north around Chiang Mai. Many are no more than glorified circuses and petting zoos. The government sanctioned Lampang Thai Elephant Conservation Center is a refreshing exception to this trend. The center is set in the verdant jungle at Km....

My girlfriend and I stumbled (likely, literally, drunk) into the local TI in Dublin looking for something to do. For me, it was one of the best decisions we made the entire trip. The team of lively lads and lassies of Paddy Wagon made Ireland all I ever expected.
One of their hostels was just...

This is the best experience I had in this trip in India.
After spending two and a half weeks in Ladak, did some walks, did a 8 day trek, spent all the time above 3500 meters, and in the trek I passed 5200 meters, my friend, Yaron, came to me and asked me if I want to climb the Stok-Kangri. I asked ...

This is the most amazing thing you could do in Alaska. A train ride, way up into the mountains. There are a few scary points, from an old wooden bridge, to a long, dark tunnel. But well worth it. It ends at the border of Canada, as you cannot go any further, and then you turn around and go back down...

When I visited Barcelona for the first time in 2002, I couldn't help but notice all those strangely shaped buildings scattered throughout the city. I wanted to know more about them, so I looked at a travel guide to the area and discovered that they were all masterpieces of the great architect Antoni...
