Gentlemen, just because it is cold outside doesn’t mean your fashion sense has to suffer. Put aside all the bulky footwear and puffy coats and replace them with an ultra glamorous pair of forest green Dunhill alligator skin boots and sleek jackets. Ok, maybe these items won’t make it [...]

Dinner at The London is special but ramp it up a level and experience The Chef’s Table. 8 guests right slap bang in the middle of the kitchen with 12 courses of the most sensational food and with wonderful accompanying wines. There’s nothing on the menu you’ll ever had made at home, that’s for sure. [...]

What Holidays Mean To Me by Murray Bevan
Summer in New Zealand is a time for me to take my watch off, forget what day it is, sleep in, eat lots of fresh fruit, go fishing, swimming, read books and magazines on the beach, cook BBQ’s, visit the countryside on day trips, be with family and [...]

The economic crisis in New York City has hit hard. Things aren’t all dim, however. Instead of stressing out, New Yorkers should appreciate things that are located right in their back yard; take less vacations and more stay-cations.

Manhattan has changed over the past 10 years. It is not the same place I first arrived at in 1983 and still continue to come and go from. When I first lived there Manhattan was a diverse, vibrant exciting place. Drag queens and drug addicts mixed with artists, musicians, [...]

On my first trip to New York, I was a bit busy leaving London and foolishly thought I’d be ok to organise accomodation upon landing at JFK. How wrong I was. The only place anywhere close to where I thought was central turned out to be the smelliest, dirtiest place I have ever slept in [...]

The best part of camping in New York is that you can camp free in any state park as long as you are 150 feet from any road, trail, spring or stream.
The Sundown Campsites, near Pheonicia in the Catskills, offers some the best free camping. Either make, or use an existing fire pit from previous [...]

One of the best things about Manhattan is how easy it is to escape when you’re ready for some R and R. Long Island (especially Montauk) is just across the river and down the road and if you head due north, up the Hudson Valley, there are hundreds of amazing spots just an hour or [...]

Eight million people (give or take a few, of course) call New York home, and there are just as many differing visions of what makes New York, well, New York! Far from just being a geographical location, it is, you could say, a state of mind—eight million personal, and hugely different, worlds. It’s [...]
