You may remember a famous commercial about the wrong company; especially when traveling, a type that really annoys me is the negative type. This area of the world is not only nature and colonial cities, but also Mayan archaeological remains. Copan (Honduras) I chose this itinerary because it was very varied, and because it also…

The last anticipated event of the trip was the sight of the giant tortoise beach. It was not a given that we would be able to see them because it was not the best time of the year. The featured photo is not mine but from the beautiful pixabay site , the other photos are…

Nizwa The ‘time came for the alternative New Year’s Eve, which I celebrated in the desert in Oman. From Muscat airport I took the rental car booked at the time; good price with the addition that fuel costs exactly half as much as in Italy. For so long I was hesitant about renting cars on…
