Timeshare Presentations: Scams or Opportunities
Timeshare presentations are tricky animals. They can either be an excellent method of obtaining expensive vacations for nothing more than a couple of hours of your time or they can turn into pricey burdens on your budget. Depending on your approach, timeshare presentations can either work for you or against you - the trick is making it worth your time.
Many travelers find themselves in a budget situation where they have more time than
money. Before you plan your next vacation, seek out timeshare presentations in the
area. Often, these companies offer hefty incentives for attending their presentations.
These incentives can range from free nights at luxury resorts to expensive electronics
or gift certificates. Many families choose to attend these presentations to offset
the cost of expensive attractions, such as Walt Disney World...

A Trip To Iqaluit In Nunavut, A Canadian Arctic City
In 2004, I completed two Inuit art buying trips to Iqaluit (formerly Frobisher Bay),
the capital of Nunavut, Canada's newest territory. For both trips, I flew out of
Ottawa on Canadian North airlines. The other airline that services Nunavut is First
Air. Only the last half of the jets was allocated for passengers as the entire first
half was for cargo. Being so remote, Canadian Arctic Inuit communities pretty well
have to have everything shipped up there by plane or by boat during the summers since
there are no roads connecting to the rest of Canada or even between each Nunavut
community. The Arctic landscape from the air was desolate, hilly and barren. As the
plane got closer to Iqaluit, the airport's small terminal building stood out with its
bright yellow color...
Want To Fly For Free? Here's How I Do Just That
Want to Fly for Free? Here's How I Do Just That!
"Travelling is so expensive! How on earth can you
afford to travel so many times in a year Glen?"
With a bewildered look on my face I reply, "What
do you mean it's expensive. I fly for free. Don't
you?"
I have had this conversation so many times with
friends and colleagues that I decided it was about
time that I share with the rest of the world what
I thought was obvious. ...That pretty much anyone
can fly for free.
Let me explain something you probably already
know, but chances are don't fully capitalize on...
Vacation in comfort with kids.Three stress relief tips for families while away from home
It takes a special person to travel with kids – a parent. Children have their own needs. Their idea of a vacation is more "adventurous" than a parent's. They need constant stimulation and they can get as tired as they are tiring.
There are many top ten type lists of tips for traveling with children: how to ensure they eat well and drink enough, how to dress them for the various weather forecasts, how to provide the stimulation they need, how to make sure they don't drive off with the family car and leave you stranded in the Mojave Desert, etc.
This list is how to travel in comfort – without tying the children to the roof rack -- which hopefully will reduce your stress.
Make sure you have plenty of room while traveling.
This is easier said than done. On a plane, everybody is cramped. On a train, everybody
is cramped, although a little less so. On a bicycle... don't even try it...
The Dominican Republic - Almost a Tropical Paradise
The Dominican Republic is not quite a tropical paradise - but we’d say that in a lot of ways it comes pretty close. Predictions are that the DR (as it is often referred to) will go from strength to strength over the next few years as visitors find out just what a wonderful wealth of exciting activities and landscapes it has to offer. Often called the Caribbean’s ‘best kept secret’, this soubriquet will become less appropriate as visitors increasingly recognize that nowhere else amongst neighbouring holiday island hot-spots can beat the DR for value!
From - whale watching to bird watching; exhilarating sea fishing (for ‘big game’ like
marlin) to gentler pastimes such as world-class snorkelling; terrific terrain for
hiking and cycling; adrenalin pumping sea-sports like windsurfing and kiteboarding
to just as much excitement inland, from whitewater rafting, canyoning, ...

Prague: Paris To A New Generation
Never was Prague's Bohemian spirit more evident than in August, 1968, when Soviet tanks invaded Prague. A cultural revolution was ignited by this violation, and artists and the intelligentsia burrowed deeply underground, but never stopped producing. Books were secretly distributed in manuscript form; apartments became private art galleries and theatres. This hoard of artistic artefacts was thrust forth to a culturally ravenous population after the "velvet revolution" of 1989.
When word of Prague's renaissance began filtering through the Eurograpevine, Go East,
young man became more a way of life than a slogan. This seductive city, so durable
and unconquerable that it resisted the Soviets' knee-jerk attempts at uglification,
remains a fairy tale setting that is irresistible...
