The Lake District has a romantic past. William Wordsworth and the Lake Poets drew attention to this special area in the northwest corner of England...

The Bay of Fundy is a place where the rhythm is naturally created by the 12 hour cycles of the ocean tides.

The Bay of Fundy – a Natural Wonder

The Bay of Fundy is a special place in so many ways, a perennial favorite for travelers from around the world. I went to have a look thanks to New Brunswick Tourism and Tourism Nova Scotia. 

A blog, by its very nature, buries stories. Every time I write a new post about traveling alone, others get pushed further from view. With 455 posts now on Solo Traveler, it is likely that there are many that you have not seen. With this in mind, Trip Base launched a #MY7Links challenge.

10 Tips - and some great photos to inspire.

Romance. It’s not all hearts and candlelit dinners. In fact, until the card industry hijacked Valentine’s Day, romance had a much broader meaning.

If you read No Time Zone. No Jet Lag. Living The FIB Time Warp, you know that I was in Benicassim, Spain in July — when it’s really hot. Yet, the  Deserte de les Palmes, a mountain range about 18km long just minutes outside Benicassim, beckoned the hiker in me and a few other bloggers who were on this trip thanks to the Land of Valencia.

The solution, go hiking in the evening. We set out around 7pm and got back for dinner at 10pm and the FIB at midnight. Yes, it was a bit of a time warp.

Enjoy the hike.
