Staying here is cheap and backpacker-friendly since the tourist crowds have yet to make a significant impact on this area. The roads were only tarmacked here as recently as 2000, although you will find development and hotels in the scenic area of Candidasa. But what they’re missing out on...
among the new developments behind King's Cross and St Pancras stations. Thestepped water featuresof Pancras Square are watched over by a couple of white blossom trees. You won't get the full pink effect here, but they are pretty among the concrete and skyscrapers of the surrounding area. ...
We went to Ulam more because of convenience rather than recommendations. It was near to the place we had our body massage. Ulam mainly serves seafood so we ordered a nasi goreng and a seafood mixed basket. The food looked good but that was all. The fish I had wasn’t fresh and was f...
The breakfast is superb with everything you can imagine (I had to order the egg benedicts twice as they were so good). The outdoor swimming pool on the 6th floor with cool lounge beds is excellent, too, as well as the spa and 24h gym. We loved everything about this hotel and coul...

I gather outside the school with the seven other teachers. The building is a tall and minimalist concrete structure, painted a pale blue. I imagine it was built quickly, I’ve seen buildings like it go up in a few weeks. Altogether there are 16 of us, four in each grade. We make ...
Making steel required a very long belt (compared to what you have) to weave different materials and then put it on the bus, not necessarily more complicated just longer to set up. Concrete + Steam is in that tier, and now you need pipes and 3 new types of buildings that use water ...
Sondrestrom AB closed; the concrete barracks building that I lived in is now a B&B, hosting those with a taste for remote adventuring. Hellenikon AB closed, and the base buildings demolished to create the main venue for the 2004 Summer Olympics … but the facilities were abandoned and looted...
