What are warm U.S. spring break destinations that aren’t overrun with partying college students? Our family is starting to think about spring break plans in early March. We want to go somewhere warm in the continental United States but don’t want to deal with rowdy spring break partyers. (No judgment! We just are at a different stage in life and have children in the early elementary grades.) Any recommendations? We like the outdoors, beache…

Either way, we’re in a position now where 8 months on from when we booked, a lap infant really isnt id…

However, I needed a place to stay for the night, and Booking.com continu…

Cool cities like Tokyo?

Cool cities like Tokyo? Hey, I’m thinking about going on a trip and I could use some help. So I’ve just been to Tokyo for 3 weeks and it was amazing. I loved the vibe of the city and the metro/Shinkansen, the food(not so many vegan options tho 🙁 ), shopping(camera shops everywhere), as well as the people how “introverted” the people seemed but also would help you wit…

How Long Does Your Backpack Last? My Gregory Zulu 40L which I loved upon getting ready for my recent trip, I realized has passed its best before date. The weather proofing material on the inside is flaking off. Leaving my clothes/packing cubes covered in a dandruff like substance. Is it still usable? Sure. But not ideal. Impossible to scrape all of it off. I’m in need of a new b…

Best party ‘strips’ like Vegas, Bourbon, & Duval?

( www.reddit.com )

Best party ‘strips’ like Vegas, Bourbon, & Duval? Just got back from Bourbon street in New Orleans. Is interesting to me what sort of makes these party strip roads (live music, high concentration of bars/restaurants, relaxed laws in relation to a lot of small time ‘party crimes’). Curious where else people have found these sort of strips? I feel like Nashville, Savannah, and Austin are similar …

Introducing the Pigeon Index, or how do you personally rate cities?

( www.reddit.com )

Introducing the Pigeon Index, or how do you personally rate cities? In my travels I’ve developed what I call the Pigeon Index for rating cities. It has two parts: 1) How healthy are the pigeons? 2) How aggressive/fearful are the pigeons? For example, Manchester currently holds the lowest score. I didn’t see a single pigeon that had all of its toes AND the birds will steal food from your hands. Conversely, Vienn…

Traveling the world with kids seems impossible if you live in a developing country.

Traveling the world with kids seems impossible if you live in a developing country. I see many discussions here that it is absolutely possible to travel with kids, it’s different but worth it, you’ll find a way to make it happen, etc. IMO, this is only possible if you live in a rich Western country. I live in South Asia. Husband and I make good money and are very passionate about travel. But it’s increasingly seeming like we ca…

What has travelling the world taught you? Hello Travellers! As the title suggests, what has viewing the world out there taught you? For me it was when I was young and my father took me to Japan, to Macau and other Asian countries. I realized the world was so so big and what I’ve seen in my home country in South East Asia felt really really small. Last year I’ve been going to West Europe…
