| Keep Austin Weird - that’s a really strange slogan for a place, isn’t it? This report describes the capital of Texas and its main attractions and features. Austin’s got a fair explanation to being called weird: the 50.000 students living in 16 campuses at the University of Texas had taken over the city! Imagine the outcome…

| Ever heard of Oxford? Of course, who didn’t? Well, many still… but that’s not what I want to say. These guys visited Oxford and can tell you what this is actually like. They even managed to sneak into a few lectures, and get an idea of the standard of Oxford’s educational culture plus other particularities like beer and nightclubs…

| A fascinating place to visit, when in England – it seems like you get deep in the countryside and transfer in time centuries ago… Very unique location.

| Who doesn’t like to travel? Some time ago I thought that only I am so thirsty for traveling and other do this out of duty of because they just need a vacation.‘/ But besides liking it you’ve also got to have some money, which is a problem often for many. Now look what these people did to earn for traveling. Sweat and tears, but I admire them.

| Ok, think about a place that reflects the sky and surrounding crater in the most beautiful way during daytime and brings up lake monsters in the night time. In other words, here’s a great travelogue about Lake Maninjau in Indonesia, where you could find Internet Café’s even in those peaceful surroundings. To navigate on the web, of course…

| Norway is my favorite winter country since I visited it in 2005. Reading this article gave me the feeling I never left that place, and I’m still hanging out skiing, having an amazing Norwegian breakfast and most of all – spending New Year with the great, friendly, Norwegian people. No matter how far away from home you are, you feel welcomed there…

| Who were Pedro Heredia and La India Catalina? |
| Submitted by kiwi on
2006-12-01 02:57:50 (via www.caribenet.com) |
| I found this pretty interesting piece of history on the larger-than-life bronze statues of a semi-naked Indian maiden that stands on a traffic island near Chambacu, and an equally impressive statue of a conquistador that stands in the Plaza de los Coches in Cartagena, Columbia. I’m sure there must be much more of these sights over there.

| I never thought of the difference in staying at a rented villa or at an all-inclusive hotel, but there is one, at least in the Dominican Rep. – you get to try home-cooked Dominican meals ;o) Yumm! I also liked the “cascading” part – must be really fun and wild!
