Siripanna Villa Resort and Spa, Chiang Mai, Thailand with kids

10/10/2022samura

Chiang Mai is a beautiful city and wonderfully evocative to visit with kids. Packed full of history, animal experiences and flavoursome food it’s a lovely place to visit. We took a family trip on our trip to Thailand with kids and checked in to the Siripanna Villa Resort and Spa, Chiang Mai for a long weekend of fun. Set just outside of the old town it’s the perfect location to feel away from the busy center but still be close enough to get into the main sights.

More than half of all Americans see leisure travel as an important budget priority right now, even as an economic recession looms around the corner, according to the results from a new survey.

Responding to a questionnaire conducted by Destination Analysts in September, 54.4% of Americans said that travel was either an “extremely high,” “high” or “somewhat high” budget priority in the next three months. By comparison, nearly a quarter of participants said that travel was not a priority at this time.

We traveled to Scotland in late Spring for our family weekend in Fife and loved the drive over the Forth Road Bridge and into the Scottish countryside beyond. This is such a great area to visit to enjoy the outdoors but without being as remote as some other areas of Scotland. We stayed in the Garden Cottage on the Kinloss Estate, Cupar and it was the perfect weekend retreat.

Heksenwaag, 16th century witches weighhouse in Oudewater, Netherlands

05/10/2022samura

About twenty minutes outside of Utrecht is the sleepy little town of Oudewater. Which holds a secret in the form of a 16th century witches weighhouse (Heksenwaag). Oudewater is a picturesque little town crisscrossed with the canals which are so ubiquitous in the Netherlands. And lined with chocolate-box-style houses and shops selling flowers, cheese and home wares. It feels as if time has stood still in Oudewater. There are no Garish neon signs, no loud music or modern buildings, just the sound of the water babbling through and the locals gently chat. In fact, the busiest part of the

The CDC has announced the organization will cease posting a country-by-country list of travel requirements related to Covid-19.
