As with any nation with a controversial cultural history, travel to Saudi now presents an opportunity to widen perspectives about the world, and interact with a society who are broadening their own perspectives through interactions with foreigners.

Thought to be founded as far back as 1,200 BCE; Lisbon is one of the most sought-after metropolitan destinations on the planet. It attracts millions of tourists on an annual basis and thanks to an amenable climate, it’s just as popular over the winter months as it is during the dog days of summer.
While there are countless sights to experience, the fact of the matter is that it is often better to avoid the throngs of visitors in order to appreciate this city in an entirely unique light. One novel method comes in the form of a sunset cruise.
What are some of the attractions associated with such an excursion? Why might this very well represent the best way to fully appreciate the eclectic nature of Lisbon and the surrounding areas? Let’s quickly examine the perks of such a cruise to better appreciate your options.

As an active traveler I’m constantly pulling muscles, carrying far too heavy packs on my back, and dealing with stiffness from failed attempts to sleep on a plane. And if I haven’t got sore feet from exploring, it hasn’t been a successful day!
So I’m now a big fan of massage guns, which saves a ton of money on spa treatments while traveling, especially since physical therapists like Bob & Brad have an excellent compact, portable range.
While the smallest massage gun I’ve found to date is the Bob & Brad Q2 Mini Massage Gun, which ranks as a personal favorite, their next massage gun up is the C2. With more power than the Q2, and a bigger body, though still incredibly compact and lightweight, the C2 massage gun is also a fabulous choice. Here is our review.

Land based casinos used to be some of the biggest tourist draws for a country, with whole cities like Las vegas and Macau popping up in the middle of otherwise barren deserts, solely to meet the tourist demand. Though nowadays the online world is challenging the traditional land based experience, and you can cozy up in a luxury hotel room for the same type of thrills.
Live casinos is a relatively new form of gambling which is a hybrid of online gaming and a land based experience; you don’t have to visit the physical site and can log in from your device, though it’s still played with real life dealers, against other real life humans, and the action takes place in real time.
So you could be in Sydney, while playing in Vegas, without having had to pay for (or sit through!) the flight!
If you’re considering trying your luck at a live casino while traveling, or joining a live casino in another country, from home, here are some of our winning tips and secrets.
