Portland food carts, the best in cheap eating | The Indie Travel ... Food carts are becoming the coolest mode of getting fed. There are food truck races on American television, and carts big and small popping up in cities across the U.S. These grab-and-go eateries aren’t new by any means – think street food around the globe – but across the States the trend is finally making the jump from hot-dog carts on New York street corners and music-box ice cream trucks, to a well-rounded menagerie of foods, both sweet and savory. It was the Northwest city of Portland that pioneered this movement, years before it was “the thing” to do. These days you can find everything from Ethiopian to gyros, waffle sandwiches to Korean barbecue, all served by a friendly street vendor. To find the current specials and locations, check the websites in advance, or hit up the carts’ Twitter feeds.

..:: REPUBLIC OF TURKEY MINISTRY OF CULTURE AND TOURISM ::.. STAPLES Center Teaching English in Central and Eastern Europe: Key Employers Searching for a Teaching Job in a Tightening Market By Susan Griffith Updated 2012 With so much of Western Europe almost impenetrable to non-European passport holders because of visa problems, Eastern and Central Europe holds out far more promise to the job-seeking English teacher. Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania, Bulgaria, the Baltic states (Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia), Russia, Ukraine and other former Soviet Republics occupy a vast area of the globe, offering rich and varied traditions and magnificent scenery, some of it relatively untrodden. From the exquisite painted monasteries of Romania to the much photographed rooftops of Prague, the region has been a magnet for job-seekers since the fall of Communism. Thousands of joint ventures have been launched and academic alliances forged in that time, as English has supplanted Russian as the foreign language of choice. Anyone with a relevant resumé should contact well-established schools in East European cities. Ukraine

Red Rocks in Denver From Midwest to Mile High! Greetings from Denver! :D Ben and I landed this morning and realized it’s been almost exactly a year since the last time we were here. Time sure flies! We got in around 10am, swooped up a car and got down to business – exploring! Red Rocks Park is right outside of Denver and known for their CRAZY big, red sandstone rock formations that are over 300 million years old. 8O A lot of the big rock formations are named…I forget what this one was called, but it was near “Frog Rock.” Did I mention it’s in the 60s here? Every time Ben and I come to Colorado we’re all – “ugh, I could totally move here…” With views like this, it’s not hard to see why. Red Rocks Park is also home to one of the largest open-air amphitheaters in the world – the Red Rock Amphitheater! This baby was built in the early 1900s between two humungous red rocks and holds 20,000 people. Here’s the rock on the left… and the one on the right! When it’s not being used for concerts – it’s an outdoor exerciser’s dream come true.
How to Buy Las Vegas Show Tickets | Las Vegas Logue by JoAnna | August 25th, 2010 If your Las Vegas plans include catching a show or two, it’s not a bad idea to consider your options before you arrive in the city. There are countless shows at all times of the year, and regardless of how you go about buying tickets, you’ll always be able to snag tickets to something, but if there’s a particular show you want to see, you have some options on how to go about buying your tickets. Tickets in Advance Some shows are so popular that you absolutely need to buy tickets when they are released. If you know what you want to see and when you’ll be in town, don’t take chances. On-Site Box Office Most theaters have a box office located right outside of the performance space. Discount Tickets Every day of the week, people line up at Tix 4 Tonight to purchase discounted tickets for shows that have not sold out. No-Show Ticketholders Photo credit: alykat
Sense to Dollars- Saving in vegas and others You guys just saw what I did on my trip in the pictorial, but I haven't talked about what everything cost. In particular, I was able to do this trip very cheaply while also feeling like I was doing a lot because I got a bunch of free things during my 50 nights away. So much stuff!! Let me count the ways: Michigan: stayed with my aunt and uncle in their humongous, gorgeous lakeside house for 5 days. Boston: stayed with my friend who lives there, for 3 nights. Las Vegas, cont: If you have the number of a promoter (easy to get), you text him and ask if there is anything going on that night. I don't know how these promoter guys know that we weren't 50 year old grandmas wanting to get in...as long as you're a young(ish) girl, though, the Vegas is FREE! around the Southwest: my friend's family gave her their gas card and a car to use for the trip, FREE!
