One week into my dream vacation, and my freckles have started to merge. The weather in Costa Rica is gorgeous. We’ve surfed, biked, kayaked, beat Germans at volleyball, toured a sloth reserve, and sipped scotch on the hot white sand. My superfine girlfriend and family are getting along famously (well, at least they haven’t lunged…
So I’ve invented a brilliant idea for late-night flights that will revolutionize air travel. First, here’s the situation: It’s 9:45 pm on a Sunday night. I’m in Seattle’s international airport and my Mum, siblings, and girlfriend are set to board a red-eye to North Carolina, enroute to a beach house on Costa Rica’s sunny Caribbean…

Let’s say you’re on visiting New York when the world is suddenly ravaged by hordes of post-apocalyptic zombies. You…
New Year’s is nearly here and booze is about to flow like blood from the gaping ribs of a zombie skeleton chasing you down a crack alley at midnight. If you’re celebrating New Year’s in the USA, this list could be useful for you: The Daily Beast has released its list of America’s 25…
Here’s a well-meaning travel innovation that could be warped and abused by creeps: In 2012, Dutch airline KLM will you let you select your seatmate by their Facebook profile. Yep, instead of letting Fate decide if your seatmate will be a chatty, filthy hog of a mama’s boy, you can pick your perfect seatmate by…
