When I was there a few years ago, I took part in a few of the city’s lots of ghost tours. regardless of whether you believe in ghosts or not, these excursions take you on an experience that not only teaches you a part of Edinburgh’s history however likewise leave you feeling just a bit “weird.”

Or, if you are like me, afraid shitless.

While I dislike horror motion pictures since I always discover them as well unbelievable, as Alfred Hitchcock said, a great fright comes from what people don’t see or know.

When I completed my ghost tours, I was so spooked that I refused to sleep with the light off that night. The only other time I felt such unease was after I saw The Blair Witch Project.

Whether you’re trying to find a fright or just want to discover about this historic city’s spooky past, you’ll absolutely want to take a ghost excursion during your visit. right here are the very best ghost excursions in Edinburgh to assist you make the most out of your next visit:

1. City of the Dead

City of the Dead is one of the top-rated ghost excursions in Edinburgh as well as it’s the business I went with during my very first go to to the vaults.

The underground vaults were developed in 1788 as well as utilized as storage area as well as workshops for services near the South Bridge. However, the bridge was poorly constructed, as well as water from the surface would leak down into the vaults. The vaults were then abandoned in 1795 as well as ended up being slums, turning into a red-light district with many brothels as well as pubs.

Additionally, the city’s bad called these vaults home. The spaces were cramped and dark and had poorly circulated air as well as no sunlight, running water, or sanitation. criminal offense was widespread, however by 1820, the leaking ended up being so intense that even the squatters left.

The story I keep in mind a lot of is of a woman as well as her mother. The bit woman felt somebody get hold of her hand. believing it was her mom, she grabbed back. however the hand, according to the story, “felt weird” as well as slowly kept squeezing her hand up until it hurt. When the woman said, “You’re hurting me,” the mom said, “I’m over here, honey.” The guide, moving the flashlight to the girl, discovered that she was standing alone. who held her hand? exactly how did she get separated? Jeg ved ikke. perhaps they made the story up. Or all the other stories for that matter. however moving with the vaults in the dark, with your mind in overdrive, produces an environment of unease that you want on a ghost tour.

Of course, the person jumping out of the corner in the dark doesn’t assist in any way either!

“You’re the first Filipinos to check in at this resort this year,” the manager told us after checking out. It was our second and last day in Langkawi. We spent the previous night at tropical resort in Pantai Tengah.

It was a shame to leave this early. I loved the island and I wished I could stay longer but we needed to get moving to Penang. The manager and staff were just starting to warm up to us. just the day before, we arrived at tropical resort after a full-day trip of the island and everyone seemed to be so busy. The manager was the only one at the reception, taking calls, welcoming guests, and doing a quick trip of the resort. Unlike many hotel-owners I had met in Malaysia, he was not really friendly at first; very straight forward with no effort to connect with us. but I guess he was just swamped that afternoon.

That evening, he was a different man. He initiated conversations, showed interest in where we would be going next, and shared suggestions on how we could make use of our very cramped time backpacking along the West coast of Peninsular Malaysia.

Tropical resort seems to always cut to the chase. One look at their site and you’ll be amazed and amused by their hatred towards highfalutin words. On their homepage, they’re declaring war against nonsense: We are a WYSIWYG establishment, in other words, what you see is what you get. We also do not believe in abusing adjectives and adverbs to help sell our rooms. We are what we are… We are clean, quiet and real value for money. So, if you’re searching for a budget accommodation in Langkawi, without the hassle and hustle… your best option is tropical resort Langkawi.

And if you’re planning to book a room here, then that ought to serve as a sneak peek into your future experience with them. just like their vocabulary choices, they only offer the basic accommodation needs of a regular traveler — spacious rooms, clean bathrooms with hot and cold shower, a small library, a wi-fi connection (albeit in limited areas only), and an outstanding location. No more, no less. If you want a swimming pool or a highly equipped gym or a fancy restaurant as part of the amenities, then this is not for you. but this is one of the most affordable we found in Langkawi (USD36.67 per night for a twin room) so it was much more like a case of “you get what you pay for.”

Our twin bedroom
Badeværelse
Tropical resort is tucked in a quiet corner of Pantai Tengah, a stark contrast to the crowded and practically psychedelic Pantai Cenang, which can be reached on foot in a few minutes. Pantai Cenang is where many hotels, restaurants, and attractions are located but a walk was always a welcome treat for me, not a chore. Honestly, I believe it is the location that I liked best about this resort.

After a long evening walking along Pantai Cenang, we came back to the resort late in the evening and it was so dark. That’s probably the one thing that I did not like so much about the place. It was so dark at night I was starting to get scared. Note, though, that it was dark within the resort and not on the way there. and oh, there were mosquitoes, which they take care of by lighting several insect repellant coils every night.

We only stayed one night at tropical resort Langkawi and to put it succinctly, it was a pleasant. As they promised on their website, the it was clean, quiet, and affordable. maybe the resort doesn’t need flowery words to describe itself. When it concerns value for money, their guests will gladly offer the positive adjectives for them.

LANGKAWI, MALAYSIA: budget travel Guide

Posted: 7/12/21 | July 12th, 2021

Jeg var bange. As I packed my bags, all these worries darted through my mind: would travel be just as fun and carefree as it was pre-COVID? would people still be hosteling? What would that vibe be like? would I even remember how to travel?

Sure, I was excited. I was going to Greece, a destination I hadn’t checked out in ten years!

But, as the world got back into traveling — as I got back into traveling — would it be so different I wouldn’t recognize the experience?

And what about Greece itself? how different would it be after so long, not only because of the flourish in influencer-driven selfies from the islands but also a year without tourism?

Before every trip, my afraid inner self worries about all the things that could go wrong. It screams my lingering fears and anxieties about, well, everything. I don’t let these fears stop me from traveling, but, even after all these years on the road, the old me is still there in the back of my mind, fretting about everything.

It turns out travel is just like riding a bike. As soon as I touched down in the Athens airport, my brain went on autopilot and, before I knew it, I was reading a book on the subway into town as if I had done it a million times before.

Because I had. Subways work essentially the same anywhere in the world.

And all those worries? They were for nothing. traveling in the age of COVID just indicates a lot more paperwork and a mask now and then. before my flight, I had to show my vaccination card and proof I had submitted Greece’s health screening form, as well as answer a barrage of additional questions. Masks were required on the plane, and there were paper checks when you landed. and there are health forms to be submitted before taking any ferries.

But beyond that, everything else is (mostly) the same. traveling through Greece ideal now, you don’t see lots of people wearing masks. It’s too hot, and a lot of people (at least on the islands) are vaccinated. Servers, bus drivers, some hotel staff, and taxi motorists wear them about 50% of the time. If you go into a museum or public building, you are required to wear them but it’s not common to see people in public walking around with masks.

Greece is as magical as I remember it. It’s still the land of blazing suns, picturesque landscapes, olive groves, azure water that beckons to you, jovial locals who talk with such rapidity and vigor that you think Greeks only communicate by yelling, refreshing wines, and out-of-this-world food with a variety that never seems to end. (And, ten years later, Greece is still exceptionally affordable.*)

I’m now in my third week here. I started off in Athens before swiftly heading off to Naxos, Ios, and Santorini, then arriving in Crete, where I am now.

Naxos, my favorite island in the Cyclades, is still as quiet as it has always been, but there are a lot more shops, beach bars, and boutique hotels catering to a richer clientele. Thankfully, the island is so big that it’s easy for people to spread out; there’s hardly ever a crowd.

Santorini is way a lot more developed, with a lot more boutique hotels, fancy eateries, and bougie wineries. and the prices and crowds are just as crazy as I remember them to be (though not as much as Mykonos). As I said on my Instagram, I’m not a substantial fan of this island. There are just too lots of people concentrated in a space that can’t accommodate them.

But the crowds that descend on the island are still fairly muted compared to pre-COVID standards. There are fewer cruise ships each day and not as lots of regular travelers. If I’m finding it crowded now, I can’t even begin to think of how crowded it need to have been pre-COVID.

And the hostel scene I was so anxious about? Well, all over Greece, it’s still raging. Hostels are still the bustle of energy they used to be. Sure, they aren’t as crowded as before but I can say that hostel life has not been destroyed by COVID. While some hostels are limiting the number of people in dorms, hostels have been fairly crowded with plenty of backpackers seeking to meet other travelers.

Overall, I don’t feel like Greece has changed that much. Sure, credit scores cards are widely accepted now, prices are a bit higher, and there’s a lot more luxury stuff for tourists, but its essence hasn’t changed. It’s still got the same character.

(And Crete? Wow. What an extraordinary place. I am thankful I finally made it here. but a lot more on that later in a longer post just about this island.)

Being back in Greece has reminded me of the happiness of travel. sitting on the water’s edge, diving into a fish with a glass of white wine, I felt just so dang happy. I was feeding my body, but a lot more importantly, I was feeding my soul. Greece has been the antidote to the malaise I’ve felt considering that the pandemic began.

That year-plus of drifting denied me my passion in life: travel. What does one do when they can’t do what they love anymore? It wasn’t like I had made a decision to retire. I was forced to take a break.

Now, I am back at it and already have found that there is simply not enough time to do everything I want to. My month in Greece looks like it will turn into five weeks, and as I stare at a map of Europe and think, “Where to next?” my mind creates a million itineraries and possibilities.

But that is a Future Matt problem. present Matt has observed that it’s dinnertime here in Crete, and as the sun sets, another seaside restaurant in Chania, with its freshly caught fish and chilled glass of white wine, is calling me.

And that’s a call I simply can’t resist.

*Note: I’ll have a post on costs soon.

“It’s the largest fountain in the world,” my good friend Mimi stated as she ushered us out of the building to an alfresco area that harbored a shallow man-made pond.

“Den der?” I asked while flashing a look that excellently expressed disbelief. “That bit fountain at the center of the pond? That’s the largest in the world?” As the words came out of my mouth, the ideal side of my brain was sarcastically taunting the left, Am I being Punk’d?

Obviously, I had seen fountains bigger than that one. great deals of them. That fountain that geysered in the middle of the pond in the middle of Suntec City was absolutely not the greatest in the world. It would not even make it in my classification of massive, not even big. Heck, not even medium.

“Not that, silly,” Mimi corrected. She then led my eyes to the diagonal pillars that prolong from the ground as much as a few stories high. A gigantic sound overhead linked them. She directed at it as well as stated as-a-matter-of-fact-ly, “That’s the fountain. The whole location is the fountain, actually.”

Oh. Okay. Fantastiske.

The location is called the Fountain of Wealth. provided as the largest fountain in the world by the Guiness book of Records in 1998, it is the centerpiece at Suntec City, one of the greatest as well as a lot of prominent buying shopping centers in Singapore. The fountain is located at the center of five office buildings, which represent fingers as well as the fountain the palm. According to Feng Shui, it symbolizes wealth.

This gigantic fountain pertains to life only at night. The sound overhead sprays jets of water around the smaller fountain, while lights paint colors in the towering cylindrical fluid wall that develops as a result. The thin pond is likewise dotted with pin lights that terminate beams of light that add to the already wonderful environment of the place.

Screenshot of Suntec City shopping center page on YourSingapore.com
In the daytime, the bigger fountain rests as well as the small stream of water at the center takes the spotlight. however checking out this smaller fountain isn’t the only thing that you can do here. There’s a narrow boardwalk that runs across the water to the fountain that visitors can take to do a short ritual for great Luck. Here’s exactly how to do it:

Steps for the great things from the Fountain

Yes, yes, I did it, too. Not that I believe in it. I just wished to experience it considering that I was already there.

The genuine concern right here is: Is the Fountain of riches worth visiting? Well, honestly, not for me. however if you’re going to Suntec City to do some shopping, then you may also decrease by particularly at night.

Update: According to YourSingapore.com, the Fountain of riches will be closed from September 1, 2012 to June 2013 for upgrade. You may get in touch with Suntec City’s client hotline to be sure.

How to get here: Take the MRT as well as alight at Esplanade or Promenade Station. just comply with the signs. You won’t get lost.

Chubu Centrair international airport vs Nagoya Airport

Before anything else, note that Chubu Centrair international airport (aka central Japan international airport or simply Centrair) is different from Nagoya Airport. Centrair is now the primary gateway to Nagoya and central Japan. It is the greatest and busiest airport in the region and the eight busiest in the country, serving over 11 million travelers as of 2017.

Centrair (NGO) lies on a manmade island off the coast of Tokoname City in Aichi Prefecture, 35 km from the center of Nagoya, 28-60+ minutes away, depending on your mode of transportation. If you’re coming from abroad, there’s a big chance that you will be using this airport.

Nagoya airport (NKM), on the other hand, used to be the main gateway until 2005 when the flights were moved to Centrair. It’s also called Komaki airport or Nagoya Airfield. It’s closer to Nagoya city center, only 20 minutes away, but only Fuji dream Airlines uses it commercially.

This post only covers Centrair.

Traveling by Train

The Chubu Centrair international airport has a train station which is part of the Meitetsu airport Line. This line connects the airport directly to the city centers of Nagoya, Gifu, and Inuyama.

If you choose to reserve a seat, you will need to pay an additional ¥360 fee on top of the fare. If you don’t reserve a seat, make sure you board a non-reserved car.

μ-SKY (MU SKY) limited express Train. Running at 120km/hr, this is the fastest option and can take you to downtown Nagoya for only 28 minutes. It’s a top-quality train that features wheelchair-accessible restrooms with diaper-changing racks onboard and two luggage storage sections in each car, aside from the overhead racks. The seats also recline, making your journey a lot more comfortable. All seats are reserved so an additional ¥360 charge applies on top of the fare.

The train station is connected to the airport terminal building by an area called access PLAZA on the second floor.

Kommunen Alburquerque, meget mere typisk omtalt som Albur, er kendt for to ting: Prony, den største python i fangenskab og STA. Monica Church, byens centrum for katolsk tro. Albur Church er en imponerende struktur, der er svært at gå glip af, hvis du ikke sover på vej til Loboc fra Baclayon. Det var ikke en del af vores tidsplan, men da jeg fandt den, bad jeg vores chauffør om at stoppe et øjeblik, fordi jeg bare blev forelsket i dens facade. (Kærlighed ved første øjekast, ja?)

Albur Church
Facade af Albur kirke
Facade af Albur kirke

Palmer, der flankerer gangbroen, indleder besøgende til hovedindgangen til kirken. Selvom det ikke er så gammelt som dem i Dauis og Baclayon, er den stadig over 120 år gammel. Den nuværende bygning blev bygget i 1885 og erstattede den gamle kirke, der var lavet af træ. Det, der sætter dette bortset fra de andre kirker i Bohol, er arkaden – en gangbro – der forbinder hovedbygningen til Convento. Indvendigt er loftet pyntet af malerier, skabt af Ray Francia i 1930’erne.

Sådan kommer du til Albur Church: Fra Tagbilaran lufthavn skal du tage en trehjuling til terminalen og gå ombord på en jeepney til Albur. Brug for meget mere information om at rejse til Bohol? Giv min Bohol -rejseguide et look.

30 finest things TO perform in LISBON, PORTUGAL (City excursions & tourist Spots)

20 finest DAY trips from LISBON, PORTUGAL

Updated: 11/26/21 | November 26th, 2021

Travel insurance is probably the most boring topic when it comes to planning a trip. nobody wants to focus on the worst-case scenario before they even leave home.

Plus, researching insurance is just plain tedious. There is a lot of fine print to scour, requiring you to read over the minutiae of each insurance plan before you pick the one that’s best for you. It’s a hassle.

But it’s also the most important thing you can do before a trip too. should something terrible happen while you’re on the road, you want to have the confidence that your insurance plan will cover you.

While none of us want to imagine getting hurt or robbed or having to cancel our plans, the fact of the matter is that these things happen. It’s rare, but things you don’t expect does happen when you travel.

I never expected to break my camera in Italy.

I never expected to rupture my eardrum scuba diving in Thailand.

I never expected to get stabbed in Colombia.

And while these unfortunate events are few and far between, it’s always better to be safe than sorry (trust me!). medical bills aren’t cheap. emergency evacuations cost tens of thousands of dollars. Unless you have a stockpile of disposable income, chances are you’ll want to buy travel insurance for your next trip.

There are a lot of misconceptions about travel insurance, so you’ll also want to learn everything you can about your plan and the company that is covering you.

Will your plan cover pre-existing conditions?

Is there an age limit or a limit on how long you can be out of your home country?

Will you be able to see doctors for non-emergency visits? What about dental coverage?

There is a lot to learn if travel insurance is new to you.

To help you make sense of it all, I’ll go over what is actually covered by trusted travel insurance plans, so you know what to look for.

Indholdsfortegnelse

What travel insurance DOES Cover

What travel insurance DOES NOT Cover

Our suggested insurance Companies

What travel insurance DOES Cover

Medical Emergencies
Chances are when you think of travel insurance, you’re picturing a medical emergency.

While accidents or serious illnesses while traveling abroad are rare, here’s what you can expect to be covered by a trusted insurance company:

Your hospitalization fees

Surgery costs

Outpatient treatment costs

Visits to registered medical practitioners (relating to your emergency injury)

Prescribed medicines (relating to the injury)

Medical evacuation (usually this is just to a local medical facility unless you have a more comprehensive plan from a company like Medjet. See below for more on evacuation.)

Emergency Evacuation
Medical evacuations due to accidents or natural disasters can cost upwards of $500,000 USD. Naturally, this is where having a solid insurance plan comes in handy. most insurance plans will evacuate you to “the nearest acceptable facility” in case of injury or natural disaster. contrary to popular belief, they don’t have to send you home.

In some cases, you will be repatriated back to your home country if your doctor thinks it necessary though this is rare and usually only occurs in cases where local medical staff can’t provide the assistance you need. That’s why companies like Medjet exist as they ensure you get home and not just to a nearby “acceptable” facility.

Dental Emergencies
As with other medical emergencies, what’s covered here is accidental injury and sudden pain. For example, chipped teeth or a sudden infection.

General checkups are not covered, nor is major dental work that doesn’t relate to an injury or accident sustained abroad. If you just want your teeth cleaned or a new filling, you’ll have to pay for that out of pocket.

Most policies have limited dental coverage when compared to the rest of your medical emergency coverage (usually, it’s under $1,000 USD).

Death Overseas
I know it’s never fun thinking about something like this happening, but knowing that you’re covered will give you and your loved ones’ peace of mind.

Should the worst happen, most insurance plans will cover the costs of a family member coming to get your body to take it home. Some policies will also include cremation services or burial overseas, should that be preferred.

Common exclusions would include death from alcohol or illicit narcotics, suicide, or pre-existing conditions not covered by the plan.

Policies usually offer between $5,000-50,000 USD in death/dismemberment coverage. However, many companies also include no coverage for this. If it’s a priority for you, be sure to purchase a policy from a company that includes death and dismemberment coverage.

Flight Delays and Cancellations
If your flight gets delayed or canceled, you can apply for compensation from your travel insurance provider (assuming the airline doesn’t provide coverage for you). As long as the cancellation or delay is not your fault, you can apply for reimbursement. However, if you miss your flight because you slept in, that doesn’t count as a valid reason!

Be sure to keep all emails, receipts, and correspondence from your airline regarding the delay or cancellation, as you’ll need them to verify your claim and get reimbursed.

Trip Cancellation
If you need to cancel your trip — either before you depart or during your trip — for a verified medical reason, the death of a close relative, or the death of your travel partner, you can apply to get reimbursed from your insurance company.

To verify your claim, be sure to get a note from your doctor if you’re canceling due to illness. If you’re canceling due to a death, you’ll need to submit a copy of the death certificate (as well as other supporting documentation).

Coverage is usually limited to a couple thousand dollars — unless you have a premium plan. For example, world Nomad’s Explorer plan offers upwards of $10,000 USD in trip cancelation coverage while their standard plan offers $2,500 USD.

Lost or Stolen Property
If your bags get stolen while you’re traveling, most travel insurance companies will reimburse you for some or all of the items (there are usually limits on gear like laptops and cameras unless you buy a comprehensive plan with additional coverage). Be sure to file a police report as it will be necessary for making a claim.

Coverage will usually include compensation for delayed baggage or baggage that’s damaged in transit as well.

If your wallet or passport is stolen, some plans will cover the cost of having a new passport or credit card mailed to you (this usually will depend on your residency). If your wallet is stolen with cash in it, you won’t be able to claim the missing cash.

Damaged or Stolen Gear
Most travel insurance plans include coverage for lost or stolen gear, such as laptops, cameras, and mobile phones. However, these high-ticket items usually have a cap on how much you’ll get back (usually under $500 USD per item).

If you’re traveling with expensive gear, you’ll want to pay for supplementary coverage to make sure it’s sufficiently covered. Be sure you have receipts for all your gear as well. keep copies of them in your inbox so if something happens, you can file your claim without having to track down copies.

What travel insurance Does NOT Cover

While every plan is different, here is a list of the most common things that will not usually be covered by your standard or basic travel insurance plan:

Accidents sustained while participating in extreme activities, like hang gliding, paragliding, or bungee jumping (though you can often upgrade to plans that do cover those activities)

Technical climbing or alpine hiking (again, some plans can be upgraded to cover these activities)

Alcohol- or drug-related incidents (including death)

Carelessness in handling your possessions/baggage

Pre-existing conditions. For example, if you have diabetes and need to buy more insulin, you won’t be covered

General checkups for non-emergencies

Stolen cash

Missed flights or connections for reasons under your control

A few other notes about standard policies:

If civil unrest makes your destination unsafe but your government hasn’t called for an evacuation, most insurance companies won’t evacuate you. (Medjet is the exception here. They have the best evacuation coverage.)

Changing your mind about your trip, unfriending or breaking up with your travel partner, and pre-existing medical conditions don’t qualify for most trip cancellation plans

If your visa is refused, you likely won’t be reimbursed if you decide to cancel your trip

A note on COVID-19 (and other Pandemics)

As many travelers learned the hard way, most travel insurance policies do not cover pandemics. until now, that really hasn’t been a concern for most travelers. Heck, prior to this year I never really gave the “pandemic clause” much thought when reading my insurance policies.

However, these days pandemic coverage is at the forefront of every traveler’s mind (and rightly so).

Fortunately, as insurance companies adapt to our new reality, some companies now provide limited coverage for COVID-19 (or other pandemics). This limited coverage usually includes trip cancelation or delay (as is the case with world Nomads, though they also provide some medical coverage as well) or transportation home (as is the case with Medjet). SafetyWing also offers basic COVID coverage as well.

Before you buy a plan anywhere, be sure to read the fine print regarding pandemics and COVID-19. Make sure you fully understand what is and is not included so you can take appropriate action should a situation arise. When in doubt, call them and speak to a representative. Don’t risk your health on assumptions!

Suggested Companies

To help you stay safe on your next trip, here’s a list of the best travel insurance companies:

My favorite travel insurance company is safety Wing. safety Wing offers convenient and economical plans tailoredto digital nomads and long-term travelers. They have economical monthly plans, great customer service, and an easy-to-use claims process that makes it perfect for those on the road.

These days, I never leave home without travel insurance. having had to make emergency claims a few times over the years, I’ve learned the hard way that it’s always better to be safe than sorry.

Just remember that travel insurance is a for-profit industry, which means you really need to do your research before you purchase a plan. read your plan — and the fine print — so you know what exactly is covered and what they expect if you try to make a claim.

Keep any receipts, emails, and documentation relating to your trip in a separate folder in your email inbox. That way, you can easily make a claim if you need to.

While the cost can seem like a lot upfront, when you compare it to the potential cost of an emergency evacuation or a hefty medical bill, it’s peanuts.

Most insurance plans only cost a few dollars per day, providing you — and your friends and family — peace of mind in the process. If you ask me, that’s money well spent. use the widget below to get coverage today:

Book Your Trip: Logistical tips and Tricks
Book Your Flight
Find a cheap flight by using Skyscanner. It’s my favorite search engine because it searches websites and airlines around the globe so you always know no stone is left unturned.

Book Your Accommodation
You can book your hostel with Hostelworld. If you want to stay somewhere other than a hostel, use Booking.com as they consistently return the cheapest rates for guesthouses and hotels.

Glem ikke rejseforsikring
Travel insurance will protect you against illness, injury, theft, and cancellations. It’s comprehensive protection in case anything goes wrong. I never go on a trip without it as I’ve had to use it many times in the past. Mine yndlingsfirmaer, der tilbyder den bedste service og værdi, er:

SafetyWing (best for everyone)

Forsikre min rejse (for dem over 70)

Medjet (for additional evacuation coverage)
