Female Solo Travel: Tips and Advice
The global travel industry has witnessed significant expansion in the female solo traveling community. Women invariably trade in their careers for kids and family. After a certain age, their life gets devoted to caring for their spouses and their children. This creates a paucity of time for them to cater to their own needs.

One of Africa's Best Resorts - The Royal Senchi Hotel, Ghana
When I look at the architectural design of the Royal Senchi Resort, I fully grasped why Ghana was declared one of the hottest new tourist destinations in the world in 2019. The resort is charming and offers beautiful scenery and a peaceful environment. From the entrance, customer service has always been very good from the first moment.

Mr. Hot Pants
This is all true. It was Gatlinbug in mid-July, and I’d just hit town, and my throat was, well, dry. I was eager for some semblance of civilization, a cold beer, and a good steak. Maybe I could find me an indecent girl in a rowdy bar to take me home for a little drunken loving, and more importantly, a warm bed. After sleeping on the ground for three weeks, and riding the motorcycle for countless miles my back was crying. Though with how I surely smelled, I’d probably still be sleeping on the ground tonight regardless. But seeing that Walgreens and a Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. gave me a weird sense of comfort anyway.

Natural Haven
I traveled to Stark, New Hampshire recently where I enjoyed a beautiful stay in an older home beside Crystal Falls. It was surrounded by some of the most gorgeous natural sites I have ever seen. Seconds passed to the peaceful sound of running water with little interest in the ticking of our clocks. When we opened the door to the back deck, the sound was reminiscent of a hurricane, and it was hard not to smile when you realized the rushing sound was not caused by wind, but instead the powerful water cutting through boulders.

Pros and Cons of Traveling By Water
The Water Way Is the Best Way There is no better way to travel than by ship. This writer has been fortunate to cross the Atlantic Ocean twice by ship. Once in the luxurious accommodations of a cruise ship, and the other time by Ocean Liner. Not very long ago the ocean liner was the only way to travel from America to England and Europe and beyond. Travel by water is not fast, in fact it allows the traveler the extreme pleasure of enjoying his or her passage. It allows for an entirely different perspective that is only allowed when traveling by boat.

Campsite #11, Furano: Flowers, Food and a Bar to Meet Locals
Unlike my sunny escapade in Biei, my single night in Furano was a miserable drizzle. Here, I also chose a park to camp in, again for the reason that there wasn't really any other option for camping unless I had a vehicle to drive to a campsite or Michi no eki (the ones in this area weren't accessible by foot or public transport).

The Arctic 'Bus' Route
Back in September of 2018, I had embarked on a move of a lifetime from urban Toronto to a small island in the Arctic Cirlce: Iglulik, Nunavut. For those who do not know, the province of Nunavut is geographically right above the province of Ontario. Yet to get from one to the other—specifically to Iglulik Island—I needed to take three separate planes, one of which landed for a quick "pit stop." This was a full day journey with absolutely no guarantee that once you're in the north, the plane will land where it is supposed to. From Toronto, to Ottawa, to Iqaluit, to Hall Beach, and finally to Iglulik, the full day adventure was exhausting but filled with magnificent landscapes.
