It’s a big world out there with more to see and do than one could ever imagine. Some of the finest activities in life are free, such as hiking, fishing, relaxing on a beach, or perhaps even camping under the stars. Other attractions, such as ski resorts and golf courses, require you to pack your credit card.

From historic sites to modern marvels, the sightseeing opportunities on earth are endless. If you’re a traveler with more of an ABC mentality (another bloody church) and disdain for visiting tourist attractions, perhaps more thrilling recreation is up your alley. Strap on a pair of skis or grab your snorkel gear and seek adventure. Livin’ la vida nomad!

I don’t know where I’m going but I’m going. Are you coming with me?

Visit our sister site, Top Hot Springs, to find relaxing mineral thermal pools for soaking and swimming around the world. Bon voyage!
