Best in Travel

  Not so very long ago, if you’d asked me my opinion about solo travel it wouldn’t have been an entirely positive one. For a long time I traveled with other people be it with my partner or part of a group and I honestly never thought of myself as a solo traveler. I always saw them as intrepid backpackers, going around the world on a gap tour or something similar. But of course that’s not reality. No, the reality of travel in 2017 is that more and more of us are solo travelers and as I looked back on the last few years of travel, I suddenly realized that the vast majority of my travels have been as a solo traveler. More than that though, I also realized that some of my most important, most impactful travel experiences have been while I was alone. Left only with my thoughts and the purity of the moment, there have been some travel experiences that go beyond the norm and have helped shape who I am today. So I thought I’d share some of those moments, those instances of clarity when a t...

Laos is an exceptional spot in my heart – it is the place I traveled down a wonderful stream on a cylinder, where I began to look all starry eyed at, and where I understood the amount I've changed in 5 years as a voyager.  I cherished the sensational mountains, the rich wildernesses, the well disposed individuals, and the laid back vibe. I calculated it's the ideal opportunity for me to assemble an epic schedule for you with the best activities in Laos, beginning from the south toward the north (which is the thing that I did, however it tends to be handily turned around!):  Wear Det (4000 Islands)  activities in laos  At the point when you initially enter Laos, you'll rapidly understand that everything eases back down. Time appears to have lost its importance there, and it is particularly evident in Don Det, a hipster paradise only north of the Cambodian outskirt.  Southern Laos gets far ...

 Amun-Ra was the local god of Karnak (Luxor) and during the New Kingdom, when the princes of Thebes ruled Egypt, he became the preeminent state god, with a temple that reflected his status. At the height of its power, the temple owned 421,000 head of cattle, 65 cities, 83 ships and 276,400 hectares of agricultural land and had 81,000 people working for it. The shell that remains, sacked by Assyrians and Persians, is still one of the world's great archaeological sites, grand, beautiful and inspiring.
