| Have you ever been to a weird city, where dusty streets play host to scores of bearded men with intense stares, blue wraiths in ankle-length burkas, steely-eyed children and crippled old men whose eyes bespoke hunger and cold? Try Kabul, Afghanistan. Despite all these, it still gives great stories for travelers to tell! Like this one.

| 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…

| Think of an island with 120 million of enormous red crabs covering it. As much as you don’t want to harm the creatures (it’s also forbidden), it’s hardly avoidable especially when driving. That’s a lot of crabs at one place… I wonder who counted them all :). Besides that, diving, snorkelling & fishing are all available “for public consume”. Enjoy.

| I must be really torn in order to get to the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem, and leave my ATM receipt there, instead of a peace note I have written for one of my relatives. Well, this article’s author did it, and it was really fun to read about it. Still, I’m not sure what the title has to do with the rest of the article. Can anyone enlighten me?:)

| The Voodoo Lands of Togo and Benin |

| I’ve surely heard about voodoo, and I would’ve certainly loved to use it on some people (ha), but I’ve never assisted to a real voodoo ceremony. Now I know I shouldn’t miss my chance to do it if I ever go to Africa. And if I get to visit with the King himself, like this article’s author did, I can consider myself a happy traveler:).

| For those interested in the life of the Maori people in New Zealand, see this article. No worry, there’s no way to get bored while reading it: it’s the type of article that puts you to thinking. How could it not happen when everything’s taking place in a stunningly beautiful landscape of fjords, alpine lakes, waterfalls and temperate rain forests?

| 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…

| An Island of Paramount Architectural Beauty |

| I only saw pics of Taj Mahal and since sculpture and architecture fascinate me more then painting, I definitely though of it as a jewel of proportion. Reading a first hand account gave me a more real idea of it and it’s surroundings: it’s truly an incomparable beauty, but in the midst of an, unfortunately, filthy area...

| “Pretty breathtaking, jutting into the skyline of the city like the deck of a space ship with the entrancing glow of the Sky Bar. Its astonishing atmosphere is only a complement to its excellent cuisine... To add to this, the Sirocco bar is also one of Bangkok’s best live jazz venues, featuring international performers…” I want there!!!

| This is a great trip to follow on with this people as they move from one place to another from the moment they left home to the moment then came back. I can’t explain how, but as I read it at my own pace, it felt as if I was there traveling along. Also, at the end there is a list of recommendations and unusual things to expect. Japan sounds cool!
