Here’s some great tips for women who are traveling by themselves.
| I arrived in Dublin yesterday, and it’s back to big city life for me. As I was exploring the city, I came to a beautiful little park with a little archway and a clock tower. I wanted to take some pictures, so I headed towards the entrance. There I found 6 Dubliners, each around 40 years old, clearly high or drunk (mid morning) and huddled around something they were doing with their hands. Oh crap, will they notice my camera and steal it? I had two choices, turn and run or smile and walk in. I chose to walk in, pulling my camera close to me, and noting if there were any other exits. There weren’t. I dawdled in the park for a bit, then made my way back out again. The drunken leader asked me if I would take his picture. I did. Harmless. |

The most eco-friendly travel destination is probably staying at your home but if you must be eco-friendly while traveling, here’s some destinations you can check out.
| Eco-tourism became a buzzword about 20 years ago, and since then it’s success can be measured by how the concept has spread globally. There are companies and organizations everywhere from Costa Rica and Panama, to Tibet and Gabon, that help travelers enjoy exploring the world in an ecological and sustainable way. The idea that travel should be sustainable isn’t just happening in the developing world, but industralized countries are keen to develop green energy and environmentally sound practices to rural parks, fancy resort towns, and upmarket business hotels in major cities. Here are six of the regions that take charge in the development of green travel for everyone. |

Here’s a good review of the best nude beaches in the world, knock yourself out.
| What good is a Garden of Eden type Paradise if you can’t enjoy it Adam and Eve style? Fortunately, the authorities in charge of Makena State Park, on the island of Maui, understand that – and the locals appreciate the tourism dollars naturist travelers bring. |
| No less beautiful than Big Beach, Little Beach is kept clean and sociable by the Friends of Little Beach/Maui Sunseekers, who also sponsor nude half-day cruises several times a year. littlebeachmaui.com |

Here’s some great tips for saving money during your trip to Disney World. Of course, you need not pay $5 per bottle of water, that simply sucks.
| There is a button on the backside of the FASTPASS machine that allows you to print out multiple passes to rides. Push the button down first, then insert your ticket. FASTPASS is a free service once you are inside the parks already. It allows you to wait in line for rides, without actually being there, by giving you a “return time” to show up and get on the ride. But, the fault is that you can only get one at a time (for one ride at a time). This little trick allows you all the FASTPASSes your heart desires without restrictions to one at a time. Each person has to insert their ticket to print out their FASTPASS. |

Here’s an interesting view of how airport security and TSA needs to be changed for the better and stop the airport madness and unnecessary searches.
| No matter that a deadly sharp can be fashioned from virtually anything found on a plane, be it a broken wine bottle or a snapped-off length of plastic, we are content wasting billions of taxpayer dollars and untold hours of labor in a delusional attempt to thwart an attack that has already happened, asked to queue for absurd lengths of time, subject to embarrassing pat-downs and loss of our belongings. |
