How Not To Travel Like An "Ugly American"
It's part of travel's enduring mythology: The American tourist, unable to manage even a few sentences in any language other than English, and oblivious to the culture and traditions of other countries.
The unflattering image of the "Ugly American" is a bit unfair, perhaps, but the "USA Number 1!" attitude persists among many American travelers.
So Dean Foster, self-styled master of global etiquette and cross-cultural trainer to the world,

Golf packages are a popular vacation deal for both golfers and non-golfers. The reason for this is because many non-golferseither ride along with the golfer or visit the spa. Golf coursesusually have very picturesque holes and for non-golfers who enjoy beingoutdoors and taking in nature, riding along is a treat. Many golfresorts have an attached spa so for the non-golfers who do not enjoy thegolf course may visit the spa and be pampered.
Golf packages can be found online through many different co

Every now and then during my travels I am fortunate enough to stay in remarkable accommodations that have their own unique and memorable features. Such was the case when I walked though the front door of Chez Wadi Pousada in Buzios, Brazil. The aura of peace and tranquility was instantly apparent, but perhaps more importantly I immediately felt right at home. Located just about 100 meters from the Manguinhos Beach, Chez Wadi is the perfe
UK tour operators have announced a huge surge in Winter sun bookings in the last fortnight, as many UK holiday makers escape the extreme weather conditions being faced by all parts of the country. In fact, many tour operators have experienced a 20% higher bookings increase than previous Winters.

India is among the top tourist destinations of the world and is visited by millions of tourists every year who visit this amazing land to experience its diversity of cultures, traditions, religions, languages, art and architecture, and natural wonders. A number of tourists who come to holidays in India stay here for months in order to explore in detail each and every major destination of this colorful land. However, there is no dearth of tourists who prefer short tours to India. During their Ind
Many people like the beach and enjoy sunbathing and swimming. Both can be hugely enjoyable provided that some sensible precautions are taken. Here are 10 safety issues to consider when visiting the beach:
1. Do not swim where there is a red flag flying. This means danger and there may be strong undercurrents that can overcome even the strongest swimmer. Never underestimate the power of the sea.
2. Never let children out on inflatable boats that are not tethered by rope to the shore as the wind or
Preguntas is the Spanish word for questions. I feel like I’ve been driving the guy at Wayki Trek a little bananas with all of my questions. Wayki Trek is the outfitter in Peru that I will be partnering with to offer trekking options such as the world-famous Inca Trail. I found Wayki Trek via the Andean Travel website. They were recommended because of their fair and ethical treatment of porters.

In Cannes, France, members of the elite International Luxury Travel Market crowd (ILTM)
paid grudging respect to the power of the social media “crowd”.

Agence France Presse (AFP) reported that Klara Glowczewska, editor of Conde Nast Traveler, a glossy, upscale trave
Red Velvet cupcakes seem to be popping up everywhere, so I just had to make a batch. And...I humbly confess, they're darn good!
Below is the recipe I used, however, I think I should have made fewer
cupcakes as mine did not rise to the top. Did I overbeat or was there
not enough batter for 30 cupcakes??? Who knows. I used the larger silver stand alone cupcake holders.
I also used less food coloring, just because the entire bottle seemed like overkill.
Nonetheless, the resulting cupcakes tasted g
