    bahia CARNAVAL!!

    If I were your mother I would tell you not to drive....and since I am not your mother I will STILL tell you not to drive there alone or with someone else (even if they had a gun). You did, however, make a great choice for a destination and a time of life. Aaah! to be 23 years old.... It is...

    Cheapest way to book airfare in Argentina?

    It's very different than in USA. Everyone takes the bus in Argentina while in the USA, not everyone takes buses but almost everyone takes the trains. In the USA, the middle class and above don't usually take buses (except to and from airports to downtowns or from NYC to the Hamptons). Our...

    Is any one else watching Glenn Beck on FOX?

    FOX is not more fair and balanced. It is looking to increase market share and that is all about advertising. MSNBC is on the progressive side and FOX is on the conservative side.

    Robbed while traveling- experience & lesson learned

    In general, young robbers are not malicious, they are poor and unsophisticated. The best thing to do is to carry a "divertive" purse or wallet. Keep the valuables in your bra or underwear and carry a bag or wallet with "change". When you give them the bag or wallet, they will run away...

    Is any one else watching Glenn Beck on FOX?

    He is a royal jerk. He and Rush Limbaugh are entertainers trying to get market share. They are both losing credibility fast. They have been divisive and are destroying the Republican Party. (not that I mind)
