Getting a discount airline ticket has its obvious benefits, but is it worth waiting and rearranging your schedule just to save $10, $20, $50, or even $100? I would argue that yes it is. If you are anything like me, you get pissed off when you find out that someone paid a much lower (discounted) fare than you did. If I find out that the passenger next to me got a cheap airfare, I think, Why was that seat so much cheaper than mine? It looks the...more
Going on a Fiji holiday? Some of the most brilliant eating experiences await the first time travelers to the islands of Fiji, in between traipsing the oceanside, relaxing on the beaches, or conversing about the latest catch of fish with the locals. Indeed, the seafood, always locally caught, remains the centrepiece of the many delightful eating experiences to be had in Fiji.If you're willing to rough it a little bit outside the resorts, you can stay in the village of Namatakula on the island of Viti Levu and spear your own catch of parrot or unicorn fish. Prepared in the traditional style, boiled with plaintains then roasted with coconut milk fresh from the tree, this experience brings a visitor on Fiji holiday so much closer to the experience of locals. Guests are treated with great hospitality and friendship, so long as you come in humility and interest for different ways of life.Also not to be missed is the experience of a Lovo, or traditional Fijian feast cooked in the heart of the earth. Quite literally, a huge pit is dug in the ground and lined with dried coconut husks. The husks are set aflame, then lined with stones. When the flames die down, deliciously seasoned food is...more

However we enter the season for planning you holiday in 2010 do not think these countries offer better value for you Pound. Upon reading many currency and economy articles, it seems that the Governmental issues in so many Eurozone countries, like Portugal, Greece and Spain will allow the good old British Pound to hopefully commence recovery early in 2010 and by Summer 2010, may well be on its way back to 1.20 to 1.25 to the pound. The fact is as much as the British have lots to worry about, the Bank of England still decides its own interest rate, not the Eurozone and with so many Governments in Europe now at critical levels of debt, this may lead to a recovery in Sterling. The best advice is buy your holiday in Sterling and watch the exchange markets with great interest. Set up the homepage on www.bbc.co.uk to show the up to date Euro exchange rate and try and buy when it seems Sterling is recovering. The country of Portugal is economically in hardship, but the tourist industry is still booming, with meals from €4 a person to canecas ( as close to a pint as you can get) costing €2 and a bottle of red wine from €1 in the supermarkets, who needs to go too far...more
