Is it a good idea to visit an island after a hurricane?
MSC Cruises, the Italian company, took a very uninspired decision to harbour in the British Virgin Isles, three months only after the worst catastrophe in their history, the hurricane Irma. Other cruise ships changed their course to the less affected islands in the area, ours did not. Was it good or bad for the people living in Tortola Island? 🤔 Imagine close to 3000 people getting off the cruise ship in their vacation mood and dresses and walking through the devastated buildings and cars, mingling with the locals. We know this is a controversial discussion, and we will put here our point of view after actually being there and sadly…

Impressions of Puerto Vallarta and the best things to do in Sayulita
We arrived in Puerto Vallarta from Mexico City with no actual research before. We only knew that is more like a holiday beach resort kind of place. We had our Airbnb accommodation in the city center, quite far away from the beach but we find out while there that is very easy to travel all over the city with the local buses, very cheap (7.5 pesos /trip) or with Uber. From the airport, just as you exit, go to the main street and from the bus station, you can take one of the many buses going to Centro. If you travel to Sayulita, just cross the street and take the…

Cât am cheltuit în trei săptămâni de călătorie în Cuba
Cuba a fost un vis devenit realitate. Ne doream de mult timp sa vizităm această insulă. Am stat trei săptămâni în Cuba și recomandăm tuturor să o viziteze, măcar pentru o săptămână dacă nu se poate mai mult. Inițial ne-am fi dorit sa exploram toată insula, să ajungem până în cel mai estic punct, Santiago de Cuba și Baracoa, dar traseul nostru a fost întrerupt de decizia de a sărbători Anul Nou în Havana, iar ulterior ar fi fost prea pe repede înainte și obositor drumul pana în Santiago de Cuba. Distanțele în Cuba sunt uriașe, iar timpul de deplasare poate fi îndelungat. Am scris in detaliu despre traseul nostru…

Mostly suited to the more culturally wired travelers and those looking for a bit of an adventure while on holiday, here are the top three reasons why you should discover the Rivers…

Jurnal de Crăciun-Cayo Jutias si drumul spre Maria la Gorda, Cuba.
Am avut o zi mai deosebită. După o înnoptare chiar pe malul Oceanului si o cină cu langustă in Puerto Esperanza am pornit cu motocicleta închiriată din Viñales, de-a lungul coastei, în căutarea unei plaje mai neturistice, Cayo Jutias. Drumurile nu au fost refăcute probabil din anii 50 și am avut ghinionul la o groapă mare cu pietriș, să pierd controlul. Câteva julituri la mine, una la Anda și mai multe la motocicletă. Localnicii au fost foarte săritori și mi-au spus că îmi va trece cu o baie în mare, o cerveza și o (nouă) langustă. Plaja din Cayo Jutias este spectaculoasa si a meritat pe deplin drumul pana aici.…
