Winter is the dream season for all those you love snow and snow activities. But it’s not easy to afford ski holidays if you are chosen the freelancing life.

Scandinavia is really hot right now. And I don’t mean in terms of its weather and temperature! The region is hot because it is one of the most fashionable places to travel to right now. That’s probably because Scandi-noir dramas have taken over our TVs and lots of us have fallen in love with our Nordic cousins. Do you want to experience the Scandi way of life for yourself and see what all the fuss is about? Then head to one of the following brilliant destinations.

It’s around this time of year that many of us think about our holiday plans for the months ahead. The only question is, of course, is where to go. You know you need a holiday, but there are so many places to choose from. Should you go the tried and tested route and head to where the tourists are? Or should you opt for something a little different? In either case, I think a holiday within the UK may be perfect for you. Here’s why.

Most people love the idea of spending their time in the great outdoors, soaking up the sunshine and enjoying the fresh air. This sort of space makes it very easy to lose yourself in thought, giving you the chance to enjoy some true you-time. Of course, though, the idea of something like this is a lot easier than the reality, and most people won’t take the plunge and enjoy a trip in the great outdoors. To change this, this post will be exploring some of the easiest ways to enjoy some nature. (more…)

People travel for a variety of reasons. Some want to escape the mad rush of urban life. Others are tired of feeling trapped in a stuffy office and dead-end job. Many more still, are eager to travel to find themselves. When you explore the world and journey to new places, it is possible that you find a piece of yourself that was always there and you perhaps never even new existed. Of course, to do this, you need to make sure that you are traveling the right way. It’s important that you don’t take the typical route to traveling because that road is too heavily walked. The footprints there are so deep, it’s impossible not to follow them. You need to set your own path.
When we think about scary travel movies, Eli Roth’s incredibly bloody horror movie Hostel is probably the first thing that pops into your head. But there are many more travel movies that are scarier simply because they are based on real stories. These aren’t the kind of stories about people getting slaughtered, these are the kind of stories that freak you out because you know someone lived it and has survived to tell the story. They’re about people surviving terrible accidents or situations. They’re freaked out by mother nature instead of zombies or murderers. Must watch for travelers, because who knows, you might pick up some survival skills! Somehow, after I watched the Shallows recently, I’m SO into this kind of thrillers, so I decided to collect a few recent ones I saw inspired by true events. And yes, I must admit, they do fuel my wanderlust, often they start in the most beautiful places like Mexico, Hawaii or Australia. Enjoy!

Are you ready for a few confessions of situations I avoided paying a lot of money for things? Sure, I’m all in for splurging every now. and then, but as a long term traveler you have to pick your favorites, you can’t do it every trip (unless you’re a millionaire, but I’m not). We all know we should keep a travel emergency fund but sometimes unexpected expenses can arise that prompt you to spend more than you originally planned. Don’t miss out on fun experiences by avoiding these costly travel mistakes.
Travelers often do the same thing, and with this article, I want to help you avoid losing a lot of money via an ATM scam. It’s not an article about scams (I think), it’s all about a small thing you should do, to avoid a lot of trouble later.
