Last month, Amsterdam’s Schipol Airport became the first airport to install a BannerXpress kiosk and the banner printing machine couldn’t be more popular. Installed at the airport’s arrivals area, BannerXpress allows friends and families of passengers to create and print “welcome home” banners with custom fonts, graphics, messages and background images. The kiosk accepts debit and credit […]
Today’s guest post comes from someone whose blog I have been enjoying since my own blogging days on Xanga: Ray, otherwise known as jigg. Ray recently celebrated a kickass BBQ wedding and is fresh back from a European honeymoon; after all this excitement he is currently on a short blogging hiatus, but was kind enough […]
Here in the NYC area, we are currently experiencing what may become the hottest week of the year. 🙁 Summer has always been my least favorite season because I loathe the heat, humidity, and yes, even the longer days. As anyone who has traveled in a vehicle during the peak of summer can attest, one of […]
I’ve been to every city on this chart with the exception of New Orleans…and I have to say that it’s true! Passerbys gawked at me in horror when I attempted to jaywalk in Seattle, DC crosswalks can get confusing, and my LA friends drive everywhere. Don’t even get me started on NY. Via […]
Conducting online keyword searches for world-famous monuments and tourist hotspots, visual artist Corinne Vionnet culled thousands of tourists’ snapshots for her series Photo Opportunities. Each image in the series was created by superimposing hundreds of pictures of the monuments — the effect is quite haunting and ethereal, and inevitably wistful. Saint Basil’s Cathedral, Moscow Tiananmen […]
In my almost-30 years of existence, I have only lived in three areas: Daegu, South Korea; the New York metropolitan area, and Baltimore. Although I love to travel, the thought of moving to a brand-new city terrifies me. So when Michelle offered to do a guest post on her big move from a suburban town […]
Paris vs New York is a whimsical blog which showcases illustrated comparisons between the two cities. Not only are the style of illustrations right up my alley (cute and minimalist), the comparisons themselves lead readers to wonder which city comes up best. Just from a quick look, it seems as if the author of the […]
Here is another guest post from Elyssa. Today, she draws inspiration from the book-turned-movie Eat Pray Love to talk about her travel experience and aspirations, filled with some truly inspirational pictures. Enjoy! Note: This post was written last month when Eat Pray Love was released in theaters. Eat Pray Love hits theaters this Friday (note […]
J and I are spending our weekend here… And seeing this man perform live tonight… Living just 2.5 hours from Atlantic City, my parents used to drag me and my sister here all the time when we were little. Being bored out of my mind on countless occasions has led to my distaste for “America’s […]
My Scratch Map is a must-have for any avid traveler. Rather than using pushpins to mark the areas you’ve visited, the user scratches off the gold foil to reveal a colorful map underneath. While I would love to get my hands on one of these to hang proudly in my office, I would be too […]
I like books, gadgets, spicy food, and art. I dislike shopping, hot weather, and the laws of entropy. Although I am a self-proclaimed computer nerd, I still have a love for handbags and makeup... and I am always teetering on high heels. To learn more about me, visit the "About" page.
