I’ve realized that being Yoyogi my favorite park I haven’t written too much about it. Yoyogi park is not the most beautiful park in Tokyo; however it is the most lively and fun, mostly on weekends. At the entrance, every Sunday you can find the rockabillies, in the central part you can find all kinds of jugglers and “ninjas”; in fact practically all over the park you can find people with good vibes doing whatever the hell they want.

Kentucky is to bourbon what the Napa Valley is to wine. Savoring a number of bourbons and bourbon-inspired dishes created a special mystique for me.

When mulling over the topic in the beginning, the first question seemed to be a “no-brainer” as I personally felt the collective answers would be a resounding “Yes!”. And, as you read through the replies, you will find that proved to be the outcome. It’s in the definitions of “travel snobbery” where things truly became interesting… Is it the backpacker? Is it the cruise ship dweller? Is it anyone, or everyone, who steps over their own threshold to venture somewhere else?

We all want to be safe when we travel. It's a given. Crime on the road is almost always unexpected and can really mess up your trip. There are some situations we simply can't prepare for (Godzilla, for example, or the Spanish Inquisition), but we can be smart about what we wear and how we carry our valuables.

If there is one thing with a mind of its own, it’s the weather. It’s mid-March and I have seen the snowflakes fall here quite often over the past few weeks. (And again as I am writing this!) But there were also days even in February when everyone in Zürich was outside, having lunch at sidewalk tables with jackets draped over their chairs, or strolling along the lake.

It's not everywhere that you can walk streets lined with 16th-century townhouses, tell the time by glancing at a medieval clock tower, admire Renaissance art in a Gothic cathedral, or savor freshly made red currant jam hand-seeded with a feather quill, but in the little Lorraine town of Bar le Duc, these experiences are a way of life.

Vacationers take in the last splash of sunset from popular Ochheuteal Beach, a seaside resort area on southern Cambodia's Sihanoukville peninsula. Not far away lie stretches of sand offering complete seclusion. "This Cambodian coast is low-key, without pretension," says Kris LeBoutillier, who wrote and photographed the story "The Beach Beyond: Asia's Secret Getaways" now out in the April 2010 issue of National Geographic Traveler. See more images from the story here.

In April 2007, I wrote about one of the best late night dining experiences of my life, courtesy of Blue Ribbon Manhattan. Ever since, I’ve wanted to go back.
