Ever heard about a place called Hotel FOX in Copenhagen? The hotel that was launched in 2005 as a result of Project FOX and created by international artists.
Each room is a unique piece of art, which the hotel guest completes by staying, sleeping, working and moving in it. The Hotel Fox reflects a new facet of mobility, of travelling and urban living culture.

Men and women are different. Who dares argue the point?
So it’s no surprise that we now know they travel differently, seeking different travel experiences.
A USA Today article “Where the Boys are Not,” reports that 88% of women surveyed said they had plans for a no-men-allowed getaway.
And these are not Desperate Housewives either!
To accommodate women travelers, many hotels offer separate wings for women, and special amenities in women-o
I have a tale of two cities to share with you. This is a tale of a city by the sea and at the same time a city that stretches into gentle foothills and rugged mountains. A city whose reputation is built on fine wines, culinary greatness, and adventure- based activities that range from the urban divine, to the salty ocean, to the rolling mountains. You might come for the Pinot as I did, but you’ll leave touched by the style and grace of a user-friendly community that is at the top of its game.

The bedbugs keep biting, and the reputations and pocketbooks of hotels and inns are getting infected.
A couple of months ago we did a “trending spotting” piece on bedbugs, and the fact they were driving travelers and hotels management mad.
Now bedbug mania is front page, main stream news, with the Boston Globe headlining a piece on the critters.
The pests have an uncanny ability to hide in mattresses and crevices in bed coverings. They’re also amazingly adept travelers, hitching ri
Once considered as a beach resort paradise with approximately 3500km of coast line dotted with palm trees and covered with white sand, West Africa has seen a steady decline in traditional tourists over the past few years. Now there seems to be a renewal of interest and tourists are beginning to trickle back to the hustle and bustle of the colourful markets, the relaxing sound of the Atlantic waves crashing on a pristine beach or to the exhilarating beat of the Jembe and talking drum.
There are se

The Myrtle Beach area of South Carolina is near capacity this summer as a result of the Gulf Oil Spill, and North Carolina beaches are

Recently the Argentine Ministry of Tourism announced that international visitors to this country have increased by 30% year-over-year based upon numbers for June 2010. It is almost certain that many of these travelers are from the global gay and lesbian community. The capital city of Buenos Aires is the number one popular destination in Argentina and recently it has been dubbed the new “gay mecca” of South America. So it seems approp
(TTBS) Even though I am a travel agent specializing in Disney vacations, I still get asked why we chose to vacation on the Disney Mediterranean cruise. Isn't the answer, "Well, duh!" But seriously, I love my job and someones gotta do the research, right? It's tough,I know, but I'm willing to take on the challenge.

It touches the wealthy neighborhoods of London and reaches into the Americas, Asia and the IVF capital of the world, Cyprus, which has more fertility clinics than any other country in the wor

What with the movie Eat Pray Love coming out around the same time as my first press trip in years, I got to thinking about the value of traveling solo. Ladies, while it helps to get out of your comfort zone, you don't need to go to Italy, India or Bali to feel at peace with yourself. What you do need is an opportunity to get away from all the things that keep you from searching within, which is really one of Elizabeth Gilbert's core messages in the book. She was, of course, literally traveling,

The famous Follies Bergère cabaret of Paris led the way in risqué entertainment in the late nineteenth century. In England “The Full Monty” became a household expression in the 1990s. But today in Buenos Aires one of the renowned main attractions for tourists and locals alike is the dinner and dance at INSIDE RestoBar. This is where, during dinner, the dance is not Tango but rather it refers to some hot, Latin male performers who slowly peel off all their attire with audience partici
