“I used to call them the spoiled brats of the internet,” one Cairo woman confessed. “Now I kiss their feet,” she said, referring to young men who broke the Egyptians long record of endurance under a dictatorial regime.
Today, the seventh day of the revolt against President Mubarak and for democracy in Egypt, 2 million people are said protesting in Cairo. Some have estimated 8 million nationwide; that’s 10% of the population and that, technically speaking, is a revolution.

Jaisalmer Fort ( Jaisalmer )
There is a fort that seems to rise out of a desert haze, its yellow sandstone walls and Jaisalmer Fortbastions taking on a golden hue in the afternoon sun, which is why it is aptly called Sonar Kila or the Golden Fort or Jaisalmer Fort. Jaisalmer Fort was built in 1156. It is the second oldest in Rajasthan Tourism after Chittor and the fort built by Rawal Jaisal, which crowns the 80m high Trikuta Hill. Three strong walls protect the citadel.the fort has 99 bastions ar
On the two-day journey from a town near Trashigang to Thimpu, which she had seen only on television, Karma felt numb with fear. She barely noticed Bhutan's pastoral beauty as the road wound through mist-clad passes, descending into idyllic valleys peppered by patchworks of rice paddy fields.

Valentine’s Day is approaching – a day that women who are not in a relationship, and want to be, really do not look forward to. Add in frequent travel to the equation and many of these women send me pleas of, “How do I find someone when I’m traveling all the time?”
So I asked professional relationship coaches, online dating gurus and other women travelers for their advice.

In 1984, I took a backpack and went around the world. I ran with the bulls in Pomplona, hitchhiked through Europe, took trains throughout India and more. I came back to my native San Francisco, and I started the first travel agency specializing in around the world airfares. I am responsible for having sent over 10,000 people on trips of lifetime. Many travel writers from Frommer's to Lonely Planet, started there carears aft
A NEW YORK LANDMARK CHURCH REOPENS
By Denise Mattia
If you were in New York in the 80’s you’re likely to remember the Limelight nightclub, on Sixth Avenue and 20th Street. The 19th century Gothic Revival church formerly the Episcopal Church of the Holy Communion, had undergone several metamorphoses, and now has become the chic Limelight Marketplace, New York’s Festival of Shops.

The hotel was supposed to have been the centre of evil, the headquarters of a satanic federation in the movie The 9th Gate directed by Roman Polanski starring Johnny Depp.
Dirt road motorcycle adventure in Brazil
I came to Brazil to start organizing adventurous motorcycle tours, so I needed to get out there and explore. This is the story of how a casual afternoon ride turned into a two day adventure…
End of may 2009 I set out with my brand new Yamaha XT660R, and ended up entering a 4x4 trail that would take me from the BR155 (the road from Barra Mansa - Volta Redonda to Angra dos Reis) to Bananal crossing the Serra da Bocaina, which is part of the “Serra do Mar”, a

Housing developments and ribbons of asphalt have replaced groves and farms and consumed open space and habitat for flora and fauna alike, but there arestill some preserves - quite literally refuges - that have become as rare as precious jewels, and seem to be all but hidden even to the residents who live nearby.
