Is Dubai boring for Americans? Should we visit Saudi instead? or skip both? Hi! Me and my gf are planning to visit Jordan and 1 more country, Dubai or Saudi. I’ve heard Dubai is sort of boring for Americans because its like Las Vegas – which we’ve been to, a lot of expats and quite Westernized. Based on my trips to Singapore and Australia, I also didn’t like it because it felt too close to home. Singaporean food was ama…

As a woman, what are the most important factors you consider when choosing a destination? When I buy a ticket, I often forget that not all places are as safe for a woman traveling alone. I don’t want to limit myself, but I also don’t want to be reckless. I would like to go to the Middle East, but it is clearly a complex area for women. In places like these, I am afraid of breaking a rule, like showing my hair or drinking alcohol, whe…

Who’s the oldest person you know that is still traveling (or the age of the oldest person you knew)? Just like the question says, I’m curious at what age the average person stops traveling. Obviously, everyone’s health will vary post-retirement but am curious if any of you know anyone who continued to travel relatively often in their 80s or 90s. I assume lots of people are still able to travel quite a bit in their 70s but when does it really st…
