Train Ride Through the Tea Mountains
During a recent trip to Sri Lanka I had the pleasure of taking a three-day train ride through the Tea Mountains. The first leg of the trip was about two hours and went from Ella to Hepatale. A days rest in Hepatale to explore the Tea Plantations, drink the tea and enjoy the peaceful mountain [...]

Tuesday, August 17, 2010
Rome is enormous, and that’s why I love it. It’s not just that it’s a big city (although it is), or that it has an unmistakable frenetic energy. Rome is one of those European capitals that is truly epic. It’s history stretches two and a half thousand years back, far past the time of Jesus [...]

Thursday, August 5, 2010
I’m not a vegetarian but I do love food and I LOVE London. Today’s guest post highlights some fabulous budget finds in this expensive city. Two years ago I studied abroad in what would grow to be my all-time favorite city in the world, London. Seriously… Greatest. City. Ever. While I was crazy excited about [...]

Tuesday, July 27, 2010
After Venice, the next stop on my mini-Italy tour was Florence. Unlike the canal city I’d never had my heart set on visiting Florence, never dreamed about it as a kid. Still, Florence has a reputation for being well loved, and I stuck it in my itinerary in hopes of getting a picture of what [...]

Tuesday, July 20, 2010
All my life I wanted to go to Venice. As a little girl, looking through my parents National Geographic, I used to clip photos of this magical and mysterious city. The streets were made of water! This exotically subversive idea delighted my 8-year-old brain. The fact that it was sinking added a sense of urgency. [...]

Thursday, June 10, 2010
I’m a big fan of today’s guest poster, Matt from LandLopers. His vibrant account of the medina in Marrakech has me dying to visit Morrocco. I can honestly say that I have never tried to find the closest apothecary. Drug stores, supermarkets, yes; apothecaries, not so much. Of course that was before my trip to [...]

Sunday, May 30, 2010
Back in February, when I was suffering through the torturous Snowpocalypse, it was really hard to believe that warm weather would ever return again. Springtime always makes me think of England. Although their winters are even longer and darker then around here, they sure know how to take advantage of the weather they do have, [...]

Sunday, May 16, 2010
Most people skip the mouthful of words that is Bosnia & Herzegovina, instead going for the shortened form of Bosnia. The two territories have had an on again/off again relationship over the past thousand years, sometimes grouped together sometimes not. Since gaining their independence from the former Yugoslavia the two have forged a permanent bond [...]

Friday, May 14, 2010
The Library of Congress is one of those buildings that I used to pass by all the time when I worked on Capitol Hill, but never bothered to poke my head inside. I was really missing out because I recently discovered that the Great Hall in the Jefferson Building is one of DC’s treasures. It [...]
