El sol siempre brilla sobre Guayaquil. La ciudad más poblada de Ecuador, capital económica del país, no se parece en nada a Quito, ciudad que ostenta el poder político. Aquí en Guayaquilhay más relax, la gente vive en la calle, hay otra manera de entender la vida. Y sí, entre las dos existe una gran rivalidad. La llamada Perla del Pacífico es una enorme urbe diseñada en cuadrícula junto al río Guayas, que le imprime personalidad y riqueza. Basta ver la cantidad de barcos de mercancías y turistas

The rivers in Costa Rica are as diverse as the terrain of mountains, volcanoes, rainforest valleys and lowland jungle through which they flow.

A trip down one of Costa Rica’s rivers, either by raft, canoe, kayak or small boat, is an excellent way to see some of the country’s extraordinary wildlife. Trees that line most river banks may hold troops of monkeys, lounging iguanas and boas, and birds such as egrets, herons, ibis, ospreys, and colorful kingfishers. Crocodiles and caimans like to sun the

If you've flown on any of American Airlines' 737s in the past year or two, you've seen bolted-in seat trays in rows 16 and 17 that prevent the middle seat from being occupied. The result: Seats A (window), C and D (aisle), and F offer extra elbow room and places for drinks and stashing small carry-ons. Me, I'm on a run, having recently taken four straight flights where I sat in the much-coveted Row 16.

Nice, but don't you find this somewhat strange?
After all, American Airlines' largesse would

Simply put, travelling abroad is one of the most enriching endeavours any person could undertake. The adventures savoured and experiences gained in exploring different areas of the world will definitely end up as irreplaceable and unforgettable memories.

In summer I decided to do some trekking with my friend. But I did not want to go to the place with lots of people there. We sought much, read many blogs and forums to find a proper place. Some places were too far, some were reserves with special restrictions, some too populous and etc. At last we made up our mind to ask for help to a travel company. We made up our mind to use the service of Progress Tour again. Nina (the operator) said that Kakhisi lake would be the best option for us. To tell t

“There is lot to do in media and entertainment sector in India, this sector actually builds up the real image of India. We are more than conscious in this government and looking for concrete suggestions from Chambers like Assocham” said Prakash Javadekar Minister for Information And Broadcasting, Government of India on the inauguration of Screens 2014 an annual event on media and entertainment at New Delhi.

Recently I had the chance to get an all-too-brief taste of Norway’s second city before boarding a weeklong Hurtigruten cruise up the coast, and OMG what a right little gem I found Bergen to be. Well, if you can call a city of 266,000 “little” – but honestly, how the locals describe it really does feel totally true: essentially,you could think of it as the world’s biggest small town (for me, the German term gemütlich comes to mind).

Surrounded by forest-clad hills on Norway’s southwestern coa

With the beach facing west, the winds coming from behind pushed us away from shore until the beach was a distant white line. I was surprised that my sailing instructor had let us float that far out, so I said something about the first-ever sailing lesson at a Caribbean resort to terminate in Mexico. “Sailing lesson?” he said. “I thought you just wanted someone from the water sports desk to add weight to the boat. I don't know how to sail.”

Bummer. But it did reinforce my theory that you always l

Have you ever thought that the world could be even more beautiful than Alps Mountains in Switzerland or Nile River in Africa? And what if you explore this beautiful with your life partner a few days after marriage? As it is honeymoon time, I am sure you must be searching for the best destination where nature, culture, tranquility and beauty mix well to attract honeymooners from all over the world. Have you ever thought how interesting it will be to plan your honeymoon in India? A diverse land wi

Next time you see one of those special airfare sales to LAX or are there on business seriously think about visiting lovely Redondo Beach for a few days. Just a 7-10 minute cab ride from the airport opens a whole world of relaxation and fun and a number of beach side hotels. Best of all you won’t even need a car.

Redondo Beach with its population of fewer than 70,000, its Redondo Beach Pier, International Boardwalk, and soft Redondo sand, is a wonderful place

Iguazú Falls are located in Iguazú National Park, in the extreme north east of Argentina and bordering Brazil. Surrounding the beautiful waterfalls at Iguazú are tales of ambition and power, fruits of the imaginations of travelers who have ventured within them. Before the falls can be seen, their murmur can already be heard, with the violent battering of the waters growing louder and louder as you approach.

The falls lie on the border of Argentina and Brazil, just a few miles from the Triple Fron

I recently got back from a family vacation to a place we’d never been before: Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. When I say a family vacation, I don’t just mean my husband, son and I. Oh, no. Every so often my extended family swarms together to go to some exotic place for a celebration. The last one that included my father was in 2005, to Italy, for my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary. Last year, after my dad’s passing, we all went on an odyssey to memorialize his life from East Texas to Tucson, bir
