Six Amazing Roads Around the World

Sep 01, 2010 1 Comment by Andrew Hickey

Growing up in New York City I always thought the Big Apple’s streets were insane.

However even the most jaded New [...]

Saturday Travel Shot: Luzern,Switzerland

Jul 31, 2010 2 Comments by Andrew Hickey

Just about an hour south of Basel and Zurich, and boasting absolutely jaw dropping mountain views, a charming old quarter and lake cruises, Luzern (spelled Lucerne in French and English and Lucerna in Italian) is one of Switzerland’s most  heavily visited small towns.

Movies That Make You Want To Travel

May 14, 2009 41 Comments

I am a travel junkie. Seriously, I am. I probably look at travel news, stories, deals and journals more than anything else during my weekly activities. It is an addiction and something that I may need to eventually get help for (is there a Traveler’s Anonymous?). In any event, while my travel bug is still [...]
