We are scheduled to fly to London on April 30. We can cancel until 48 hours prior to departure.
I've been watching the weather forecasts for Wiltshire, Somerset, West and East Sussex for some time now. It looks as though the cool, wet weather will continue for the foreseeable future, according to the UK Met Office and some weather sites. But the l... Read More

So me and my wife planning to visit albania for 3 nights. We saw some tiktok videos and fell in love but upon research it seems like Albanias public transport system isn't like other europian countries. We found only a handful ways to travel once we are there but even that seems really complicated for us. Since we have limited days we can't just st... Read More

Some days, we might eat our big meal at lunch. Online guides? Books I should buy?
Thanks so much for y... Read More

In early May I will be attending a week-end family event in Tacoma. Many years ago we visited other locales in the area but didn't make it to Seattle or Tacoma, so Seattle is brand new to me.
I am contemplating adding a night or two in Seattle either before or after the Tacoma week-end. But, frankly, nothing about Seattle is truly jumping out a... Read More

I've been reading about protests happening in different parts of Spain regarding overtourism. We have a trip planned next month and I would like to get some feedback from locals or recent visitors on what's happening and if there is anything we should or shouldn't do while there that will not ruffle any feathers.

Hopefully, the third time would be the charm.
