Do You Know Where Calgary Is?
When I travel, meeting people is inevitable. The conversation is usually broken up into little pieces to get to know each other and find some common ground. It is fun to hear where they are from, the country they grew up in, and how life can be a little different yet stay the same as we wander around this globe.

A Love Note to Philadelphia
Have you ever visited a city for the first time and just felt this click? I'm not trying to make it sound overly dramatic but there is this magical moment where you just know that you were meant to be there. For me, that city has always been Philadelphia. It is a city that is constantly changing and growing. It embraces the passions of its people and appreciates the art and culture that have shaped it throughout history. Our love affair began a long time ago but grows stronger every year.

Reasons You Should Never Visit Georgia!
Salivation The vast array of aromatic and delicious dishes on offer at a traditional feast—called "supra"—will cause you to experience not only constant salivation, but also pangs of conscience after overindulging in these delicacies.

I have taken it upon myself to show you 10 places that are featured in the game and are worthy of a visit. At the bottom of the page will be a map where all of these locations can be found.

One Day in Krakow
First thing’s first. You’re in Poland; you will have vodka. The first and most important thing to see in Krakow is the main square. Here you have two of the most famous churches in Poland; the Polish people are known for their steadfast devotion, so I guess all that vodka is good for something.

28 Days in Nepal

Our school presented us with this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity 18 months before our proposed departure date and myself along with nine others snatched up the chance to go to this beautiful country. We fund-raised the required amount to pay for our expenses (flights, kit, vaccinations, food, accommodation, trekking permits etc) and after a highly-anticipated wait, on the 10th July we set off for Nepal.

Hoofing It in the Green Mountains – Part One
Now I know what some of you may be thinking: where in the blazes IS Vermont? Isn’t that where Bernie Sanders is from? Can you ride a moose? First, you can find us snuggled in between New York State, the Canadian province of Quebec, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire. Second, Senator Sanders has claimed us as his home state, and many of us are proud to have him. Thirdly, I would not recommend accosting such a large animal as to ride it. So, now that I have your attention...
