Fairytale Destinations Is it a dream or is it for real? These places will make you wonder whether you step into the land of magic and fantasy or still firmly stand on the ground. With unearthly nature, unreal landscapes or fairy tale architecture, these destinations will take you far away from your humdrum reality. Picturesque Colmar in France, considered the most beautiful city in Europe, looks like it came straight out of a fairy tale. As if being the wine capital was not enough, Colmar, with its pretty squares, fountains and canals, is also called the "little Venice" (la Petite Venise). The Lord of the Rings' scenery of Faroe Islands truly makes you believe the archipelago is inhabited by hobbits and elves. Saksun, Faroe Islands. Castle Neuschwanstein in Bavaria, Germany in autumn. It is not a sugary Disneyland construction, although it looks like a fairy tale palace occupied by some capricious princess. If there was a fairy tale about the enchanted land of clay, its setting would look like Cappadocia.

Visa USA B-2: Tips y Pasos para obtener la Visa de Turismo desde la Embajada de Estados Unidos en Perú ~ Sonia's Land El año pasado, acercándose la época navideña, una de mis mejores amigas a la que conocí gracias a la experiencia del Programa Work and Travel, planeó viajar nuevamente a los Estados Unidos para pasar unas vacaciones con su novio. Ella sola se animó a aplicar a la Visa Americana Modalidad B-2, conocida también como Visa de Turismo, sin recurrir a ninguna ayuda externa (como algún asesor o agencia) que como ya saben, cobran cierta cantidad de dinero que a las finales podrían añadir a su bolsa de viaje.

Best Folding Bikes • RealManCyclingChallenge The manufacturer, Columba (not to be confused with Columbia bikes from Boston or Columba Jerseys in the U.K.) suggests that this bike is ideal for riders 5”3” to 5”10” who are under 200 lbs. However, for riders who are taller, purchasing a standard seat-post extension will allow you to ride comfortably with no further major adjustments. As with many folding bikes, the front wheel needs to be installed by you but this is easy to do on this model. This folding bike has standard bolt holes toward the rear axle and the seat for installation of a standard sized bike luggage rack. After riding my neighbors’ 6-speed (see above), I thought this one was much easier to pedal. Hmmmmm… wonder why he didn’t buy this one instead, then. Even though it can be ridden on dirt roads, this is a College Town bike. Dahon is probably one of the best loved names in modern bike manufacturing. They haven’t skimped on either with this single-speed Dahon Shadow, either. Full Review | Check Price My Personal Favorite

Planapple: an easy, free, complete trip planning tool 43 Places PositiveViajes - PositiveViajes How to avoid pickpockets when traveling A razor blade used to cut into your pocket by pickpockets - you won't feel a thing Someone tried to pickpocket me last week. It’s always been a top concern of mine. Crime is everywhere in the world today. One of the weakest, and largest targets for travelers, tourists and indeed people in their own countries, is their wallet or purse. My encounter with a pickpocket thief in the Philippines: who won? I got on-board a morning city jeepney, as I have done many times throughout the country. Crowded Jeepneys are where many pickpockets frequent There were four of us. Alarm bells of experience The eyes tell a lot. I already knew something was up. The attempt at pickpocketing me The guy to my right slipped up closer to me, took out his phone and placed it very close to my right knee (this would make a person curious to look at it – aka distraction). There was no need for all this closeness as the Jeepney had a lot of room. “I knew what was going on, they were a working pair.” Enough! I said loudly.
