What’s It Like Staying in A Nepalese Tea House?

Teahouses are mountain lodges dotted along the trekking routes of Nepal. They’re the standard accommodation for most treks in the Himalayas. Originally, teahouses were very simple affairs, with locals welcoming trekkers into their homes and providing basic hospitality. Today, they’ve evolved into something more akin to small hotels or guesthouses, complete with private rooms, dining halls, electricity and running water. However, teahouses remain decidedly basic, locally run businesses. Their simplicity may come as quite a shock to anyone expecting more...

How Difficult is it to Cross the Larkya La Pass?

The Manaslu Circuit is one of the great treks in the Nepalese Himalayas, completing a semi-circle around Manaslu (8,163m), the world’s 8th-highest peak. The trek typically takes 12 days, with the highest point reached on day 10 when you cross Larkya La Pass at 5,106m. It’s the most breathtaking day of the trek—both figuratively and literally—as well as the most rewarding and challenging. At over 5,000m, air pressure is almost half that at sea level, making breathing...

Where to Stay in Madrid: Best Neighbourhoods & Hotels

The thing we love most about Madrid is that it still feels like a very lived-in city. In the historic centre, narrow lanes are filled with vintage boutiques, old-school tapas bars, tiny record shops, and casual terrazas that stay lively well into the night. Some neighbourhoods feel gritty and unpolished, others are grand and regal with wide boulevards and elegant plazas, but all of them offer that unmistakable madrileño energy. The bonus is that you can stay...

Where to Stay in Seville: Best Neighbourhoods & Hotels

The thing we love most about Seville is that it perfectly balances grand monuments with intimate, lived-in barrios. You’ll find all the Andalusian charm: squares lined with orange trees, Moorish palaces, corner bars and flamenco joints, as well as local streets, gritty from day-to-day life. Some neighbourhoods are full of tourist energy, while others feel wonderfully untouched, with laundry hanging from wrought-iron balconies and elderly Sevillians yelling at each other across their windows. Seville is a compact...

Some areas are lively and central, others residential and local, and a few are ideal if beach access is your top priority. We’ve...

How To Visit The Egyptian Pyramids At Giza (New 2026 Information & Tips)

The Egyptian Pyramids at Giza are the only ones of the Seven Ancient Wonders of the World still standing. Spread across the Giza Plateau, on the outskirts of Cairo, they are indeed a bucket-list destination. When I first came 25 years ago, the place was chaotic, with people and cars everywhere. Wandering around was hot and dusty. There was nowhere to eat or escape the heat, and the locals regularly harassed me for money. ...

How To Visit The Valley Of The Kings In Luxor

The Valley of the Kings is a remote rocky valley on the outskirts of Luxor. Buried here are the pharaohs of Egypt’s New Kingdom period, the rulers of the 18th through 20th dynasties who chose this desolate valley as their final resting place. Their tombs are decorated with scenes from ancient religious texts, vibrant paintings that have survived millennia, and hieroglyphs that act as a historical record of ancient Egyptian life. It’s a fascinating place to...
