Working While Traveling: How to Find a Happy Balance
Working while traveling is an art form in and of itself. It takes determination, planning, and focus. Today, we’re going to open up the traveling worker’s toolbox and examine their most useful tools.
Get Out: The Unfriendliest Cities in the World
For every five-star review of a travel destination on TripAdvisor, there’s the opposite. The reasons range from locations that look better in pictures to over-populated city centers filled with scam artists and hucksters to over-priced meals served with a side order of attitude. It’s time to venture off-resort, into some of the unfriendliest cities in the whole wide world.
Worst Celebrity Statues from Around the World
We buy their albums, tickets to their movies, and all the products, brands, and questionable colognes that they endorse. Surely that’s enough to quell the hungry egos of some of the world’s biggest celebrities. Well, not exactly. You see, immortalization via cultural significance, world records, and millions of dollars sometimes isn’t enough. Tradition dictates that our celebrity idols need to be re-created in gold, bronze, wax, and stone, so not even the elements can dismantle the memory of their monumental rise to the top.
The Best Canadian Hockey Towns
Canada and hockey go together like peanut butter and chocolate. If you didn’t know that, you either don’t watch hockey or you’ve never been to Canada in the wintertime. Just like any sport, hockey has its hotbeds. Coincidentally, each and every one of the cities and towns mentioned in this article claims superiority. Mind you, in entirely different ways. Some cling to a long and storied history. Others flash around their laundry list of NHL alumni, current Hall of Famers, and future Hall of Famers. Today, we’ll take a look at the best of the best. Lace ‘em up, tape up your stick, and put the foil on. These are the best hockey towns in the Great White North.
The Coolest Cargo Planes in the World
Outside of a select few mechanical engineers and their fanboys, cargo planes rarely get the love that they deserve. But, if you enjoy two-day shipping, next day delivery, or incredible feats of human ingenuity than it’s time for you to take notice.
Don’t Fall for These 10 Scary Traveler Scams
Hopping aboard a transcontinental flight on route to a new, ready-to-explore destination is a rush. Traveling teaches us about the world, sure. But, more than that, it teaches us about ourselves. You also probably already know that, unlike your comfort zone, traveling presents a lot of inherent risks. It’s a sad reality, but it’s a reality that rings true. You, as a tourist, are a two-bit criminal’s dream target. After all, you have absolutely no idea where you are, no idea where to go for help, and no clue what the scammers have in store.
The Best Taxis from Around the World
As far as the world of taxi cabs are concerned, the bar isn’t set particularly high. Most adventure-seeking travelers modestly request stain-free seats, a smooth ride, and a cost-effective route. The bar for superior taxi service isn’t very high. Perhaps, that’s because most of us have yet to experience the top-shelf customer experience offered by some of the world’s best taxis!
