European Vacation Rental Homes

I like to believe that there is a type of holiday for everyone. Some people like to take time off to stay at home and get things done around the house. Some people are into adventure travel. Some people like to be out in nature when they travel. Some people prefer to spend their time in a large city. Some people like nothing more than to set sail on a cruise. You get the idea.

While there truly is a vacation suited for everyone, …

French Alps Ski Accommodations from €11

I am going to take this opportunity to be the first, and possibly the last, to propose that we make the Alps one, unified country. As it currently stands, you have the French Alps, the Italian Alps, the Austrian Alps, the Swiss Alps, the German Alps and there is even a mountain range in Kyrgyzstan that claims to be the Alps of Central Asia. It is all just too confusing for those of us who are geographically dumber than a doorknob.

My modest proposal is that we take the Alps and make …

Cheap Bulgaria Ski Packages

When I think of Bulgaria I usually think of decent wine and a country where shaking your head no means yes and shaking your head yes means no. Confusing, isn’t it? You’re best served by looking straight ahead and not shaking your head at all.

Bulgaria evidently is making a play for the European ski market. I can’t attest to the quality of snow or mountains you’ll find in the country, but if you are looking for a really affordable ski vacation you might want to consider spending your winter …

Berlin Hotels and Hostels Deals

I had the good fortune to spend a couple of months in Berlin, Germany this summer during the World Cup. The German capital is an electric city that is seemingly changing for the better each and every day. As you walk down the streets past some of the historic buildings and admire the pioneering modern architecture, you can’t help but be struck by the city’s mix of old and new. The energy in the air is fabulous as the people who live in Berlin are very aware of …

Head to Cuba before Castro’s Cigar goes out

No one quite knows what is going to happen to Cuba after Fidel Castro passes away. We’ll probably find out soon enough since the experts are predicting that Fidel is not long for this world. Love him or hate him, he has been an iconic figure on the global stage for decades and he as much as anyone represents modern day Cuba. If it is up to me, I’d rather tavel to Cuba when Fidel is still alive than when he is gone.

Travel to the island is still restricted for …

An African Retreat in Kenya that is nothing short of Sweet

Forget a week in Paris. Ignore the call to sit on a beach in Spain. Don’t even think about a holiday at Disney World. You can do those things any time, but how many times in your life can you have an adventure in Africa for under £400.00? This is one of those times and this could very well be the once in a lifetime holiday you are looking for. We’re talking a luxury resort in Kenya with the opportunity to go on a safari and to …

New Zealand Motor Roam Holiday

People always like to ask me about the favorite place to which I have traveled. That is never an easy question since there are so many unique and wonderful things I remember about each city and country I have visited. I usually try to squirm out of answering the questions by saying that I have a lot of favorite places, including New Zealand. That is usually enough to provoke a conversation because if you have been to New Zealand chances are you loved it. If you haven’t been, chances …

Stay at the Ritz Carlton in Egypt without Paying Ritz Carlton Prices

The closest I have come to staying at a Ritz Carlton hotel is eating Ritz Crackers at a $5 youth hostel in Bratislava. Those crackers are damn tasty and so is this deal. You can fly from London to Egypt and stay at a five-star Ritz Carlton hotel on the Red Sea for seven nights for the mere cost of £399.00. I’m not sure that room service offers Ritz Crackers, but for that price you can fill your bathtub with caviar and eat your way out. Admit it, …

Cyprus on my mind and in your Holiday Plans

Have you ever had a word or a phrase that you didn’t know before but once you learn it you see it everywhere? That has been happening with me and Cyprus lately. Sure, I knew that it was an island located in the Mediterranean, but other than that my knowledge of Cyprus was minimal.

The more I have come to read about it the more I have become interested in experiencing Cyprus for myself. The beaches look lovely, the weather ideal in the winter months and there are no shortages of …

10-Night Luxury Spa Stay in Thailand

There are getaways and there are getaways. This deal falls into the latter category. We’re talking two of Asia’s finest spa resorts, round trip airfare from London to Bangkok and 10 days of blissful rest and relaxation all for less than 1,000 pounds. What a splendid way to spend a holiday.
