28 year old Thai activist, in prison for ‘insulting the monarchy’, dies after hunger strike. Lese Majeste laws are so ridiculous. To let an intelligent young woman die like this is a black mark on #Thailand and should weigh heavily on all tourists planning a visit to the country. #LeseMajeste #Tourism #SEAsia #Siam

Thanks in part to the opening of the new Ghibli Park, Aichi Prefecture is receiving more attention as a travel destination these days. Recently, the prefecture ran its own survey to assess how it stacks up. Here are a few of the things you can enjoy on a visit to Aichi.

A question for people in Paris:

We´ll be on a family vacation in France in the 2nd half of May, and are pondering whether to visit Paris.

Are there any important limitations due to the preparation for the Olympics? Major sights blocked off, or anything like that? Lots of security hassle?

We´ll be travelling with children, so we´re trying to avoid long queues etc.

Casa Memoria Felicia e Peppino Impastato

Casa Memoria Felicia e Peppino Impastato a Cinisi è la Casa-Museo dedicata alla memoria di Peppino Impastato e di sua madre Felicia.

Peppino, attivista che ha lottato contro mafia, corruzione e oppressione, per la giustizia sociale, e il 9 maggio del 1978 fu ucciso per volontà del boss Gaetano Badalamenti.

Mamma Felicia ha rotto il muro del silenzio per raccontare la storia di Peppino e per denunciare gli assassini mafiosi del figlio, è stata la prima donna che si è ribellata alla cultura dell’omertà.

Ha aperto le porte della sua casa per raccontare la storia di Peppino e per far conoscere gli aspetti più corrotti della nostra società e dell’apparato istituzionale.

Felicia, definita “partigiana dell’antimafia” e “donna di democrazia” è scomparsa il 7 dicembre del 2004 dopo un lungo percorso per ottenere giustizia per Peppino.

La condanna di Gaetano Badalamenti, boss di Cinisi e bersaglio delle continue denunce e dell’impegno politico di Peppino, è arrivata solo nel 2002, 24 anni dopo l’assassinio.

Nel 2012 Casa Memoria Impastato viene riconosciuta come bene culturale, sono migliaia le persone che hanno varcato e continuano a varcare la soglia di questa porta ormai simbolica alla ricerca di nuove conoscenze, di informazioni non distorte e di un momento di riflessione e tutte si sono riappropriate di un piccolo pezzo di libertà.

Sri Lanka is facing criticism from public after it's decision to increase the visa costs. It's going to impact the tourism sector.

A fortnight after Sri Lanka switched to a new visa issuing system, authorities are facing a backlash over higher visa costs that could deter tourists, “Indian involvement”, and “corruption” in the subject minister’s push to outsource visa processing.

Včera jsme v prvním průsmyku v horách, na začátku oblasti postižené zemětřesením za městečkem Asni, náhodou narazili na skupinu českých turistů, vedenou legendarním poděbradským průvodcem po Maroku Oroňem. Ten byl dle svých slov v Maroku už 80x ...

Setkání nám hodně pozvedlo náladu. A Oroň nám slíbil v případě problémů po Whatsappu...

"Forests along Odra river" ("Lasy Odrzańskie") near city of Zielona Góra (Poland, Lubuskie region) are a beautiful location for long strolls and bicycle riding. Some gravel roads are available for motorized vehicles also - so I couldn't resist the opportunity to explore this area.
