Are there actually any hostels in Macau?

6/1/2015 4:46:05 PM I walked by the two official youth hostels in Macao the other day. They are both in nice spots on the south coast of the south Island very close to beaches and hiking opportunities in the hills. Both have a bus stop in front of them with direct bus routes to Macau […]

3/27/2015 11:16:12 AM Recently I applied for a passport for my newborn daughter. Since I work my wife would be the one to go alone to get the passport application. However I discovered that I would need to get a notarized form giving her permission to do so. This was a huge hassle so I […]

Can I use B1 visa (Visitor-Business) to travel to the Canada without a business purpose?

4/6/2014 10:53:30 PM I agree with DJClayworth above. The B1 Visa is only for working in the states. There’s an FAQ on the US Customs and Border Protection site that talks about travelling to Canada while on a B1. They say it’s possible, but you must meet Canada’s requirements for entry. Since you are an […]

Bus between Gothenburg Landvetter Airport and the city centre

12/15/2019 1:02:47 AM Flixbus also travels between Landvetter airport and Gothenburg (Nils Ericson terminalen). Prices on Flixbus are generally cheaper (29-69 SEK), but buses travel less frequently: there are about seven or eight buses every day, as compared to 89 SEK on Flygbussarna, which travel every 20 minutes. Granted, prices are still more than one […]

1/20/2014 2:05:40 AM Ideally you’ll want a place like Top of the Rock. However, they have a ‘no tripod’ policy, like Times Square and the Empire State Building. HOWEVER, The Top of the Rock does allow you to take a tripod but without extending the legs – read this guy’s experience doing this. So potentially […]

Mixed-gender naked swimming pools in Finland

1/9/2014 10:39:10 AM In short, no. Even the Yrjönkatu pool is a bit of a historical quirk that has probably survived largely thanks to general conservatism (it’s Finland’s oldest and operated very much the way it did in 1928) and patronage from Helsinki’s gay district Eerikinkatu (conveniently located right next door) — no, it’s not […]

Marfret does not carry passengers. CMA-CGM carries passengers, but its a cost of 100€ per person and per day. A vessel needs 23 […]

Besides Arab/Muslim countries re Israel, are there other countries which don't recognize passports of any other countries?

12/8/2013 11:11:11 AM Having some passport not recognized by some country is not that unusual. It’s pretty much certain to happen somewhere for passports of countries with partial recognition. Someone else mentioned passports of Northern Cyprus (which is only recognized by Turkey), which according to Wikipedia, is only accepted in 6 countries. But there are […]
