An exciting tour to Tasmania

While i was in Australia to see my elder brother who is settled in Sydney from the last 10 years. though i was scheduled to stay there for a month last year. but i find it difficult to stay there more then a week. anyways after being annoyed by the boring daily routine when there is no friend to hang out with, no work to do. no task to archive, just an empty mind & the lonely streets of Sydney :) my routine for the fist week is is like eating, sleeping & repeating. so one shiny day i decided to go out on a long drive. i ride the newly bought off road runner of Toyota that belong to my elder brother. & finally i start my journey to an unidentified destination.

There is Sydney lake in a few kilometer drive but i am looking to visit somewhere unique, so i continue my journey & drove the vehicle continuously for more then 10 hours, i sounds crazy? yes i was crazy that day :) . anyways it was the dark night when i found myself in Canberra & was looking for a hotel to stay there for a night. you know what this is one of the exciting long drive i ever had. going to a place where you dont know anyone & you don’t even have a map. on the other hand not booked any hotel room makes it more adventure when you are supposed to stay in the car.

But this is not the limit! one of the tourist from France who stated at that same hotel where i got the room convinced me to visit Tasmania ( an island and state. It is located 240 kilometers south of the eastern side of Australia. i booked the air tickets & packed the car i hotel parking. Moved to another famous place in the work called “Tasmania”. stayed there for 3 days & discovered many heavens on the earth, lakes i visit includes Dove lake, ST Claire lake, Lake rowallan & Lake Burbury which is my favorite one. each one has their own way of beauty. there in much more to write on these lakes so i am splitting this tour to two articles, will get back to you ..happy traveling :)

Ski adventure & hiking thrill

It is certainly impossible when you are out to enjoy your annual leave at snow converted hills & you didn’t taste the adventure of skiing. But hay! Be careful of you are doing this for the first time. It may hurt you and your wallet if you don’t have affordable health insurance. Secondly if you have difficulties to balance yourself at high altitudes & steep areas, don’t bother to try it. This is the game for folks who love extreme adventure. However if you really want to face this adventure, I suggest you must try this, get the help any ski master or your travel guide if they know about the tricks of skinning.

Though I am doing this thrill from the age of 10, so I can confidently says that I can do this on any glacier or any surface with snow. There are many learning club where professionals can guide you about the pro & cons, but it is better to help yourself & take a start followed with regular practices. The place I love for skiing is the beautiful mountains of Switzerland in winter season. A suggestion for all the tourists, never try to do high jump for the place where you are not familiar with area & the surface of mountain. You will love it if you do with care and enthusiasm. Try this for one time & you will do every time you get the chance in snowy hills.

Colombia is safe to travel, there is no criminal & war like activities (it was several years ago) that can make you feel risk before visiting this beautiful place, i spent about a month there back in November 2007 & every day was perfect. interestingly if you are seek to go for world tour, Colombia is without any doubt the suitable place to take your start from as there is some cool countries in its neighborhood, Colombia is bordered to the east by Brazil, Venezuela, Peru, Panama & a couple of more. traveling by road is more advisable, you can easily get a rental car from any transportation agency.

Useful tips for cheap & comfortable air traveling

If you are planning to enjoy your holidays at some fabulous resorts, here i am to guide you to make it cheap & more enjoyable. the first thing to consider before packing your luggage is the travel tickets, you will find many travel agents who can arrange you the ticket of any airline but if you want to get some cash discounts i suggest you to search different airline websites & find if there is any discounts & coupons available, most of the airlines offer discounts on their various destinations to attract new customers & this is what i want you to avail.

Confirm the tickets a week before the your actual date of your leave, this is best way to save money & time at the case if there is shortage of tickets due to heavy flow of passengers. the second thing is to select best accommodation. it is always good to find out some acquaintances at the place where you are going to stay but however this happens in very rare cases. Note that some travel packages offers accommodation checklist as well by paying a little more fee then the actual ticket price. so grab the offer if it suits you.

Do not take unnecessary travel items with you. it is a hassle to travel with it. if you are traveling with your newly born child you can have a baby sitter to enjoy the comfortable journey. yes! if your budgets allows always get some gifts from the discount shops the is available at many traveling resorts.

Singapore is famous for the different varieties of food. not only chines but different international dishes are also available at various restaurants. Indian & Thai restaurants, in particular are the best one for the delicious food they cooked. i traveled to Singapore many times & each time i always look to taste different Indian foods.

One of the delicious Indian dish that is very famous in Singapore is called taka tak. that is actually choped lamb meat cooked with the combination of vegetable oil & chili powders. its is very famous dish in Pakistan & India as well so i suggest you folks to try this once if you ever have a chance to visit Indian or Pakistani restaurants. chicken rice also a very hot recipe in Singapore food businesses, for street stalls to five star restaurants you will find the traditional Singaporean rise at every table. & yes it is delicious.

Traveling is Singapore is cheap & you can easily get a car on rental basis, however i recommend you get the services of private taxi to move around the city. city is well planned with beautiful parks & tourists spots.

Ohio travel adventures

OK here is am to write my first article about my great traveling experience to Ohio (united states). it is one of the famous state in America with rich cultural & historical background. Camping & hiking at Columbus Ohio is a great outing adventure for people who visit this state for the first time. There are some unique trees in the old city that attacks most of the tourists. Ohio is part of ENC states with the 7th largest states in population at united sates. Most of the local residents have their roots with Appalachia , England & mild Atlantic sates.

You can easily find paid room at any hotel, rates are reasonable at most of them. One suggestion that I would like to give to tourists is to study the stick rules of Ohio state government regarding hiking, camping & driving. Yes not to forget the specific rules for cleaning & road safety. Over speeding can really give you a hard time with big fines or other penalties like imprisonment. So be follow the driving rules & take great care at the turns . Normally over speeding can caused in a case with the driver is drunk or feel sleep. So in both the cases it is highly risky to go out for long drive.

Ohio can be classified as a clean city for its strict polices regarding cleanness. you will love its clear streets & markets. As far as peace is considered this is no risk is staying at private hotels, wondering at bars & walking at parks. However be careful at late nights as there maybe few street robbers, in short it is a great city to visit if you want to see real America in you next outstation tour.
