AirBnB – My First Adventure

January 22, 2014

I have been going to San Francisco a lot recently and have been very surprised by the outrageous rates of the hotels, there. It seems that there's always a conference in town, during which the rates are jacked up so much as to make Paris seem cheap by comparison. After my last hotel experience (at Le Meridien for $1,000/night), I decided to take action. There had to be a better ...

Best Foot Reflexology in Singapore

April 25, 2012

If you want the best foot reflexology that money can buy in Singapore, then go to "Foot Court" at B01-03 Orchard Towers on Orchard Road. Not only does this shop give fantastic foot reflexology but it does it for a very decent price. I've been coming here off and on for 11 years and I've never had a bad massage.

Fed Up with False Advertising? Don’t get mad – get even!

January 31, 2012

You've probably had this experience before. You see an ad, or a brochure, for a hotel or holiday destination that looks just too good to be true. The beaches are pristine and uninhabited by humans, the staff are smiling, the sun is shining. Everything is perfect. Until you get there. ...

What is a Partridge in a Pear Tree, Anyway?

September 17, 2011

I know what a Partridge is. I know what a pear tree is. But who concocted the two as a Christmas gift? Better yet, what do the lyrics to the "Twelve Days of Christmas" mean, anyway? I'm taking time out from travel technology on this post to bring you another curiosity: a good book. Perhaps, even, a good travel book. Who knows. Thomas Bernard has written a book - "The ...

I hate folding maps – love Crumpled City Maps

September 16, 2011

I know we're in the digital age and all but there is something satisfying, mystical and tactical about a printed map. They are easier to share. It's fun to roll out large ones on a table top, then gather around - decode and discuss them. It makes you feel that your drive in the country is a military expedition. This isn't a loo stop, it's a re-supply mission! Unfortunately, ...
