Travel Blogging in 2013

The travel blogging industry has been growing for sometime now and this infographic shows some statistics on travel blogs. If you are thinking about starting a travel blog you have to first make sure you can handle all of the work of a blog. You also need to be able to work while on the go and capture everything on camera.  Travel blogs are fun but there is a lot of planning and logistical work that must be done.

Tired of Paying for Commercial Time Travel

The last time I went to talk to the owners of the LHC (Large Hadron Collider), they acted like they’d never seen anybody who was trapped in the wrong timeline before.
They said something about “Mental Health”, and authorities. Then they tried to keep me there, which was not going to work out for me, I needed to hurry and get back to my own timeline before my great-grandmother could catch up with me.
I don’t know why I always get into these situations, about every third or fourth time I take a temporal vacation, there’s something hitting the rotary oscillator. I can’t afford to pay for the Temporal Stabilization Service that is offered at some of the more legitimate travel agencies.
At this point, I think that I am just going to build one from scratch, I’m tired of trying to use these primitive Particle Accelerators to try to activate my return card.
The only problem is, the legality of unregulated privately owned wormholes, and the self destructive feedback loop.
Simply put, it’s illegal to make a wormhole for yourself, unless you’re rich enough to afford the insurance, and can deal with the Paradox Regulation Administration (PRA).
Paradox Insurance and Radiation Mitigation are the worst expenses, especially when compared to the relatively inexpensive commercial services.
I have all the parts I need now, well except the Radiation Mitigation tools, hopefully this thing won’t consume the Solar System if it explodes.
That’ll teach them to make safety components so expensive.

2013 Festivals Around The World

Festivals are a great way to experience the unique culture of a destination. Here at Flight Centre, we’ve put together this festival guide to spotlight what’s going on around the world in February. Maybe you might like to consider arranging your travels so that you’re visiting a city when the locals are hosting a fantastic festival such as the Carnival in Venice, Igloofest in Montreal or the Organic River Festival in New Zealand. Alternatively, celebrate diversity at the Sydney Mardi Gras, party at the Rio Carnival or enjoy the cinematic gems at FESPACO in Burkina Faso.

Infographic Review

Infographic Design: C +

The design for this infographic is just boring and a little too simple. Could there not have been a  more creative way to showcase some of the world’s best festivals. There are no pictures no history just where and when the festivals take place.

Infographic Information: C

I don’t feel really fair giving the information a grade, mainly because there is not much information. The opening paragraph explained a little about festivals but I would have appreciated some more in depth information about each festival.
