On the drive from the airport, which was very quick, we couldn’t tell what we were looking at, other than lots and lots of high-rises. We got to our hotel and realized that it was smack-dab in the middle of everything – just off Surawong Road, right beside Patpong Market and close to Silom. The taxi driver tells us that we are lucky – it is a long weekend, and so the traffic is smooth in downtown Bangkok.

I secretly think we anticipate being on vacation away from our vacation in Croatia in 48 hours. Still, our drive is buoyant and fun, and we arrive in Melk around 3 p.m. and find an incredible baroque fantasy famous for its library, which is mentioned in Umberto Ecco’s “Name of the Rose”.

The 9 Best Travel Experiences Around the World

yet so vast at the same time. We don’t need more than a day or two to reach almost any destination on the planet, yet we rarely venture far beyond the boundaries of our own comfort zone.

Lack of time or money is usually the first one to pop up, but even if some people can save up enough money and can allocate enough time to visit some fabulous, remote destination, they rarely decide to do so.
