Oh Canada, Zoom Airlines has some Killer Bargain Fares

Unless you are skier, you probably aren’t thinking of taking a trip to Canada during the winter months. With the exception of a slightly temperate slice of land on its West Coast, the country is somewhat less than warm this time of year. But regardless of the temperature or what it says on the calendar, Canada is a country worth exploring.

In addition to vast tracks of pristine land and countryside, Canada offers some of the finest cities around with diverse populations, great food and a cleanliness that will amaze you. …

Frankfurt is the door to the world

If you are an experienced globe trotter, you probably have spent a smidgeon of time in the Frankfurt, Germany airport. Along with Heathrow and Charles de Gaulle International Airport, it is one of the global hubs of Europe. Walk down the corridors and you’ll find flights departing for just about every corner of the globe and you’ll hear more languages spoken than you would spending a day at the United Nations. Frankfurt is the place to go when you want to go somewhere else.

That isn’t to say that you should …

Have a Devil of a Time in Tasmania

Those who visit Tasmania are apt to call it unworldly. A wild and beautiful place, this jewel of an island is the perfect destination for those visiting Australia for a holiday. Lush natural forests, amazing clear lakes and some of the heartiest people on this planet all make Tasmania a one of a kind destination that is delightfully hard for the average tourist to reach.

If you are lucky, you might just come upon one of the estimated 100,000-150,000 Tasmanian Devils, which are described in Wikipedia in the following fashion:

Cheap Airplane Tickets to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Remember when Kula Lumpur, Malaysia was the next big thing? They built the world’s tallest building and had an economy that was growing like nobody’s business. Well, in the past few years a taller building has been built in Taipei and there isn’t as much buzz about the Malaysian miracle even though it is still taking place and even though it is increasingly becoming a destination for travelers from Asia and around the world.

One thing you probably don’t know about Kuala Lumpur is that among the tall glass towers and …

i-to-i: Meaningful Travel Takes on a whole New Meaning

Every time I am fortunate enough to get away on holiday I think about how lucky that I am to be in a position where I can travel the world and make new discoveries. As more and more of us set out on journeys to place both near and far, it is always important to remember that there is a large portion of the world’s population that will never have the opportunity to travel more than a few kilometers from where they were born.

The fact remains that the world is both a …

Golf Vacation Rental Homes in Europe

It was Mark Twain who famously wrote that golf is a good walk spoiled. While Twain never laid eyes on me hitting an eight-iron, he surely knew what he was talking about. A more frustrating endeavor than knocking around a little white ball you won’t find in this world. It can also be marvelous or so I have been told.

The thing I enjoy the most about golf is that it is usually played outdoors (unless you go to one of those funky indoor driving ranges in Japan) and that it …

Discount Travel for Students

Have you noticed that university is bloody expensive these days? Of course you have, you’re the one still in school and you are the one who is excited when you find loose change under your sofa cushion. Paying for education is a necessary evil, but it shouldn’t keep you from traveling and seeing the world. You can learn just as much on the road staying in a flee-bag youth hostel as you can by sitting in a classroom at an ivy-covered university.

Fortunately for student travelers there are discount travel companies …

From the Red Sea to the Dead Sea: Spectacular Egypt and Jordan Journey

A lot of people these days are interesting in going to great lengths just so they can claim that they have been to the highest point on earth. If Mt. Everest isn’t your style, how about aiming for something a little bit lower? It doesn’t get any lower than the Dead Sea, which lays claim to being the lowest point on this spinning sphere that we call earth.

The Dead Sea in and of itself is a destination, but why stop there? Why not take a bit of time to explore …
