  • Visiting an island in Thailand

    That of visiting an island in Thailand was one of the main goals of the trip. There are many and there is something for everyone.

  • Singles cruise, from the series let’s try them all

    My singles cruise experience lasted one week, in July 2014. I only went as part of an organized trip with a group on a cruise ship. I had also done the Nile cruise in the past, but that is a whole other thing and in my opinion not to be missed. How the singles cruise…

  • Tourist village in Egypt, a salty little cut

    In January 2019 I did a hybrid experience of resort but also DIY. In previous years I had done my first snorkeling: Thailand, Australia and Belize.

  • Cruise to Egypt, the curse of Tutancaccon

    Unfortunately, from the Egypt cruise, I brought home more in addition to too many souvenirs. Pharaoh’s curse?

Doing so by spending the day…

  • Weekend in Umbria, fog in the house and naked in the street

    I’ve done a lot of weekends in Umbria, and I’ve enjoyed them if only because of the nature trails you can take to get there. I like to go south via theE45, through the Casentino forests and toning from the Valmarecchia or via the Marche Apennines. These are spectacular roads by car. Why so many…

    I had high expectations about visiting Angkor; I also remember it super fondly for one of the most pleasant of the many travel acquaintances I have made. The immense archaeological site is in Cambodia, fairly close to the Thai border; however, it was far from where I was staying and I flew there. For a…
