Loch Ness, pizza, and the famous bridge The next day we got back on the road to Invermoriston, where we stopped to actually feel the water of Loch Ness. It’s cold. Properly cold. We took our pictures, gave it a minute in case Nessie fancied an appearance (she did not, rude), and moved...

Cancelled, delayed, rerouted, knackered We were supposed to fly at 6am, which meant bag drop at 4am, which meant getting everybody up at some ungodly hour and actually managing to have all of us ready and out the door on time. A small miracle in itself. And then, right as we were about to...

Core memories? Maybe Some trips meet your expectations, but others go completely overboard and shatter them completely. Austria had been on my bucket list for a while now. I have grown hearing about Sisi’s stories, all the grand imperial streets, imposing buildings touched with golden accents...

Two years ago, my family had a Halloween reunion aboard the Carnival Cruise ship. It was one of the most fun experiences we’ve had. Needless to say, we were all looking forward to meeting up again for a 10-day celebration in Atlanta. It took months of planning, as people flew in from five...

Back when we were driving around the California roads we listened to a lot of American songs/artists. One stood out above all others: Billy Strings. If you don’t know him check this out. I then offered tickets for Strings’ concert in Copenhagen in October. From previous experience, we knew we...

We had never been to London during summer and we had the perfect opportunity a week ago. It was an adults only trip which allowed us to go to a few places that we wouldn’t go if we had the girls with us. I just love London and its vibe. I love the pubs and the bookstores and even the grey...

After our road trip around the mountains we settled in Albany, in the East Bay, located just north of Berkeley along the San Francisco Bay, where our friends lived. We stayed with them for two days, having good food, drinking good beer and enjoying the neighbourhood. The kids had a ton of fun,...

BY JIMMY DOLAN With late night talk show hosts from countless galaxies making Earth the butt of their evening jokes, four renowned human chefs held a news conference Monday to announce they will team up to make a special pizza with the proceeds going toward helping this planet get its act...

A joint U.S. Senate and House of Representative three-year investigation concluded Monday with the extraordinary findings that Black Americans and White Americans lose single socks after a washing/drying session at nearly identical rates. The joint committee, chaired by Joe Manchin (D-South...

In early 2012 I met Airbnb. At the first time (I was living in Spain yet) I thought that was not a very good idea. I was mainly scared about the fact that I would be sharing a house with complete strangers. When I arrived in London a lot of people of Google Campus were using it. So in early 2013 I...
