When was the last time you flew on an airplane?

If you’re a recent traveller, then you already know all the ins-and-outs of airplane features and add-on costs. You carry your own luggage, bring your own snack, supply your own headphones.

The 10 Best Places in the World to Access the Internet

Web Watch knows a guy who spends his life traveling around the world – not for work, but just for fun. Because he’s young, and he can do it.

Sure, he has a job, but his job didn’t allow him to travel. Didn’t require him to ever leave his office. So he decided to go on the road on his own, taking his office with him.

How Many People are in Space?

You’ve always dreamt of being an astronaut, right?

And today, you actually can go up into space – albeit on a fancy modified airplane.  Or you can experience zero-G… either on a roller-coaster or again, on a fancy modified airplane.
