While I would not consider myself an “extreme” traveler (I am trying to visit every COUNTY in the United States but not every COUNTRY in the world), I do enjoy maps and geography. So I was intrigued to see that someone had put together a resource detailing the status of (just about?) every border crossing in the world. For people that are traveling to shall we say “more obscure” countries, crossing country borders can be tricky, and the status of various border crossings can change rapidly.

I saw a Facebook reel the other day that got me to thinking about a particular travel-related topic. I don’t know how long this particular reel will stay up on Facebook (sometimes they only seem to last for a limited time), but there’s not much too the reel other than the screenshot belowThe Background – How Hotel Breakfasts WorkIn the United States, at hotels that offer complimentary breakfast, I have found that usually the breakfast is just open and available in the lobby.

For many years before I started learning about miles, points and credit cards, my airport experience consisted of getting to the airport, going through security, and then sitting at my gate until my plane took out. Now, thanks mostly to a Priority Pass membership, I usually hang out in airport lounges if I have extra time. While there is a wide range of quality between different airport lounges, in almost every case, being in an airport lounge beats sitting in the terminal.
