The Eternal City
Just over a year ago, I went on a trip to Rome with a few friends and can honestly say it is the most amazing city I have ever seen. Since the times of the Ancient Republic, Rome has been nicknamed the ‘Eternal City’ as it was believed that no matter what happened throughout the years, Rome would always stand - I am extremely grateful that it has.

More Fees for Ryanair Passengers
Today Irish budget airline Ryanair has announced that it will be cutting the amount and size of carry-on luggage on their flights. This, it says, is imperative to the smooth operating of the airline as Ryanair claims that people with two carry-on pieces of hand luggage are the cause for the airline's constant delays.

How To Become a NASCAR Driver
As an avid fan of South Park, one of my favorite episodes happens when Cartman becomes a NASCAR driver. In the often-messed up cartoon series, Eric Cartman cried about being unable to attain his dreams of being a race car driver because he wasn't "poor and stupid" enough.

Most Expensive Muscle Cars
Right now, the most affordable new muscle cars on the market start around $23,000 — and that's assuming that you go for the "bare bones" version. A budget car, on the other hand, can start as low as $14,000 for a brand new model. Obviously, this means that muscle cars are a bit more expensive than a typical car will be.

Ghoul Times in Portland Oregon
Halloween, the ancient Celtic holiday that marked the end of the harvest and transition to winter, was originally called the “bridge to the world of the dead.” This “bridge,” and all its Halloween horror, isn’t confined to Celtic lore anymore. It’s waiting for travelers looking for a new road trip idea aside from fall foliage. And it's waiting for them in Portland, Oregon.

Rome Alone
No one finds themselves. That’s not why we travel. You’re right there, where you always were. But sometimes a foreign sun can show you to yourself in a different light, the veins of quartz that shine in the flashlight’s blue beam as we make our way through the cave. To see yourself through the eyes of a stranger, even for half a second, is to confront an enigma.
