Some things I noticed: Cairo is a tragic city because you could tell it was once gorgeous, but has been relegated to ruin b…

Do I need to provide proof of onward travel when backpacking in SE Asia? So, I’m about to embark on a backpacking trip throughout SE Asia, starting in Thailand. The only thing I am a bit unsure about is whether I need to provide (POOT) “proof of onward travel”/ a return ticket. From what I have read in previous threads here and there, it looks like it varies a lot, and that it is the airline itself that asks and ther…

What are some unique, oddly specific, peculiar but inexpensive souvenir ideas you can think of? I know someone who collects a turtle figurine from every country she visits, and I think that’s such a fun idea. Some people collect jewelry, cookie tins, or even condoms, while others do stuff like taking cooking classes or craft workshops wherever they go. I want to start my own little travel tradition, but I’m looking for something unique to …

However, when I went to pay, it showed January 11 as depart day. I had to change the date to January 13 to see January 12 on my ticket. I guess the system works differently—perhaps the date we select is …

I’m taking my elderly mother, two elementary school-aged kids and spouse to Cartagena, Colombia. I’ve done my research and been able to book (fully refundable) lodging.
