Casinos To Visit in Birmingham

I was a bit shocked to learn that Birmingham is home to the UK’s second largest number of casinos, although it does make sense when you consider it’s the UK’s second-most populous city after London.

7 Things to Pack for a Romantic Weekend Away

Normal packing lists include things like socks, charger cords, and your favorite book. But a romantic weekend is something much different.

A romantic getaway typically implies that you plan to spend more time in the hotel than away seeing the sights. You probably won’t need your walking shoes and camera for something like this. Instead, you’ll want fun things to do in the room while you’re relaxing and reconnecting with your spouse or partner.

Additionally, it can help to choose a hotel with amenities that give you both what you need to rest, relax, and reconnect. A pool, hot tub, and room service options can help you facilitate a lovely weekend.

​Tips to Finding an Online Casino When Traveling

Exploring a new destination, and all the adventure that comes with new sights, sounds, smells, and tastes is energising, and there are plenty of ways to stay entertained. But then there’s the time you spend in transit – actually traveling from point A to point B. And this is a lot less interesting!

There are plenty of ways to stay entertained during your downtime while traveling, especially now that the world has become more connected, and it’s easier than ever to travel with a WiFi connection. You can run with the more traditional passtimes, like reading a book, people watching, or doing airport yoga between the seats, or you can binge watch Netflix, scroll the hours away on social media, or fine tune your casino skills with online games.

Gambling has evolved throughout the world much since the first games of dice in Mesopotamia (modern Iraq) in 3000 BC. And while land based casinos are still a big tourist draw, online games are now also part of the lives of modern day tourists. But with this new online landscape, what are some of the considerations to finding an online casino when you’re moving through countries? After-all, you want the best gaming experience possible, while still safe guarding your money and data.

Three Simple Ways to Avoid Getting Sick While You Travel

If you get to travel, it often means you’re lucky; lucky to have taken the time off work, to have saved up enough for the trip, and sometimes in the case of solo travel, to have convinced friends, family, or your partner, that you’re totally fine alone.

So the last thing you want to do is put a gigantic damper on your good work by getting sick before, during, or after your time away.

Casinos to Visit in Manchester

Being home to so many firsts or beginnings, it should come as no surprise that Manchester was due to have the UK’s first mega casino that would rival those found in Vegas.
