Even though there are lots of disputes on how to slake you thirst on hot days, for many years people in different countries with a single heart have been showing preference for beer. But one shouldn’t think that good beer is prepared in Germany and Czech Republic only – good sorts of this drink can be found everywhere, including the exotic country of Thailand.

The first Siamese beer was brewed in 1933, and even though Thai sorts (mainly lager beer) faced cruel international competition, they occupied their own niche in regional and international markets alike. In modern Thailand beer is the most popular, almost a cult drink. Good proof for this can be found almost in every country’s spot, especially in large cities, like the country’s capital – Bangkok, where citizens drink beer almost without a break, sitting on open terraces in front of shopping malls or right on the move when they are in a hurry. Till recently, beer was sold only in 0,66-litre bottles. As for the 0,33 bottles, they appeared here only to please tourists. Local cuisine promotes the popularity of beer in Thailand – dishes are very spicy and pungent and it is next to impossible to wash them down with wine.

What can a tourist expect from local diversity of beer? The oldest Thai brand which is well-known abroad is called “Singha”, translated as “Lion” and created by the “Boon Rawd” brewery. Three types of beer (Singha (6%), Singha Gold (4,8%) and Singha Draft (4,8%) are produced of Thai barley. The high quality of this beer is due to the fact that Bhirom Bhakdi, the company’s founder, was taught by Bavarian brewers. According to the producers, they named their beer after the mythic lion from ancient legends, which was the symbol of force, stability and grace. The golden lion adorning every bottle stresses the fact that “Singha” is the king of the Thai beer. This is actually the case, as many experts call it one of the best Asian beer brands. In its homeland it got so popular that when you order a beer and don’t specify which one you want, they will definitely bring you “Singha”.

Some years ago another beer brand – “Chang”, or “Elephant” appeared in Thailand, which could easily compete with “Singha”. This beer has been produced by “Thai Beverages” from 1994. The name is also not a random one – in Thai history elephant is a mystical figure. “Chang” got known in many world countries after it became the sponsor for Everton football team from Liverpool. Chang is a lager beer, which is produced in two variants – 6,4% for regional market and 5% as an export variant.

Besides “Singha”, “Boon Rawd” brewery also produces beer called “Leo” (5,5%) Leo Super (6,5%) and Mittweida (5%). Its rival, Thai Beverages, supplies the market with Archa (5,4%) lager beer.

Another famous Thai brand is called “Phuket” and is brewed in the Phuket province in the country’s south. Tropical Beverage International developed this brand for those in love with magical Phuket island and with beer. This is a bit sweetish 5% beer which has a colourful toucan bird on its label. In 2006 this brand got the “Monde Selection” Gold Medal.

Those who are fond of “knock-down” can try “Red Horse” (6,9%) produced by the “San Miguel” brewery. This is one of the strongest types of Thai beer and the company itself calls it “beer for the workmen”. “Blue Ice” (6,4%) is also produced by this company but is a bit less strong.

As for the less known brands, those are mainly produced in the country’s centre. “Siam” (5%), “Champ” (5,8%), Klassik (5,5%), “Thai” (6,5%), “Black Beer” (6,5%) and “Kloster” (5,2%) are brewed in Pathum Thani Province; “Asia Pacific Breweries” from Nonthaburi Province produces 5 % strong “Tiger” beer.

As you can see, there are lots of sorts of beer in Thailand. And if you don’t like local beer, you can always find imported one in Thai shops. Some European restaurants even have their own breweries.

For those who would like a destination for eco-tourism, Costa Rica is hard to beat. For a little country in Central America that’s only 19,730 square miles, there’s definitely a lot to see and do there. Costa Rica means ‘rich coast’ in Spanish, which is the country’s official language. Located between Nicaragua to the north and Panama to the south, Costa Rica is one of the most stable and prosperous of all Latin American countries. There are tropical beach resorts on both the Pacific and Atlantic coasts of the country for sun vacationers but the main attraction of Costa Rica is the eco-tourism. For example, there is a wider variety of bird species in Costa Rica alone than in all of Europe and North America.

Surprisingly, there are diverse eco-systems and microclimates within Costa Rica. In addition to the coastal beaches, there are dense jungles and rain forests with a wide variety of fauna. Some of these forests are referred to as cloud forests because of the moisture of the mists that linger among the trees in some parts. One forest has a cable car set up so that tourists can observe the plant and animal life at the treetop levels. For the more adventurous types, there is a place where one can swing from tree to tree using a network of rope attachments. There are also dry forests as well as colder barren volcanic tundras. Quite extreme changes in microclimate can be observed even within 30 minutes of travel. Some parts of the country have canal systems similar to those found in the Amazon and a few rivers offer excellent white water rafting.

There are several volcanoes within the country and the extinct ones are easily accessible since they are tourist attractions. A few have beautiful turquoise color lakes that have formed in the craters at the top of such volcanoes. One of the more famous active volcanoes is Arenal where visitors can safely watch the eruptions from a nearby facility that has outdoor hot springs naturally heated by the mountain.

In addition to the many different birds that can be sighted, there is a wide number of other exotic wildlife including monkeys, sloths, jaguars, bats and reptiles that can be seen during one of the many available nature tours. Every year, there are sea turtles that come to certain beaches to nest and this event attracts many nature lovers. The wildlife in Costa Rica is not only rich on land or the air but also in the surrounding oceans. For scuba divers, Costa Rica offers excellent diving opportunities and they are quite different from the waters in the Caribbean. The higher amounts of plankton in the local seas attract more numbers of large marine animals than can be found in the Caribbean.

Coffee and bananas are some of the main exports for Costa Rica. For coffee lovers, this is the place to sample some of the best in the world although it should be warned that the locals like their coffee quite strong. Tours in the valleys will often go past numerous coffee plantations.

Most tourists will fly into the capital city of San Jose. Although there is some nice colonial architecture to see in San Jose, it’s not one of the nicer places to stay in Costa Rica. The city is noisy and polluted but relatively safe. One can use San Jose as a base for many day trips to the various rain forests, volcanoes and beaches. Travelers can also fly into Liberia which is a town in the north part of the country. This is a much quieter region and close to many of the northern resorts. One option that many travelers take is to rent a vehicle and tour the country on their own. However, the roads of Costa Rica are not the best with lots of potholes and mudslides are common during the wet season from June to November. If renting a vehicle, a 4×4 is definitely recommended.

There is so much to see and do in Costa Rica that many visitors return to see parts of the country that they missed before. The country is easily the most popular destination to visit in Central America. Costa Rica now has tourist offices set up in North America for those who want further information.

More than one million tourists visit Costa Rica each year. What draws so many people to this lightly advertised destination? Natural beauty and diversity are the answers. Costa Rica covers only 0.03% of the surface of the planet but it has about 6% of the world’s biodiversity.

Visitors encounter seas, beaches, rivers, waterfalls, mountains, and an abundance of flora and fauna. Twelve major life zones provide habitat for over 10,000 kinds of flowering plants, 850 bird species, 3,000 butterfly species, and 209 species of mammals. Volcanoes, rainforests, cloud forests, lowland jungles, the Pacific coastline, and tranquil Caribbean beaches stretch across seven provinces. Thirty percent of the land is protected by national and private reserves, which harbor more than five percent of the world’s plant and animal species.

Costa Rica is Central America’s jewel. It’s an oasis of calm among its turbulent neighbors and an ecotourism heaven, making it one of the best places to experience the tropics with minimal impact.

Costa Rica boasts 20 national parks, 8 biological reserves, and a wealth of other protected areas to enchant those who marvel at the wonders of nature. It draws ecotourists from around the globe. Activities include horse-back riding, hiking mountainous paths in the cloud forests, guided bird-watching tours, volcanoes, scuba diving, snorkeling, sailing, canopy tours, golf and much more.

Ticos, as the people of Costa Rica are known, are famous for being hospitable, and are quite happy to live up to their reputation. They seem to be well aware that their country is a special place, and they go out of their way to accommodate their visitors, explaining things that might seem foreign to a foreigner, and helping make their stay as enjoyable as possible.

Northwest Costa Rica, the Guanacaste province is for the active soul, drawing visitors with its beaches, rivers, waterfalls and natural attractions. Forming the eastern border is a group of volcanoes that form the Cordillera de Guanacaste and Cordillera de Tilarán.

From the mountains flow various rivers that roll down and form an alluvial plain drained by the Rio Tempisque, which empties into the Gulf de Nicoya. The name Guanacaste is derived from quahnacaztlan, a native word for the guanacaste tree, which is Costa Rica’s national tree.

With a new airport at Liberia, tourism to Guanacaste has boomed.

Costa Rica is a tropical country with two seasons – dry and wet. The Guanacaste Province is the driest region of the country with less than 55 inches of rain in the coastal areas.

Costa Rica occupies a territory of around 20,000 square miles in the southern part of Central America, and includes several small islands mostly on the Pacific side. It is much like the state of Florida with two long coastlines. The country is only about 200 miles long and 70 miles wide at the narrowest part.

Costa Rica is often compared to Switzerland and Hawaii because of its mountains and forests. Unlike many areas of Mexico, Central and South America, Costa Rica remains beautiful year-round. This is partly because it borders the Pacific Ocean on the west, the Atlantic Ocean on the east, and has a string of towering volcanoes on the Central Plateau. Combine all this and you have a unique tropical paradise with 11 climatic zones.

The high season in Costa Rica, December through April, is the dry season. The green season, which lasts from May to November, usually sees sunny mornings, with rain showers in late afternoon and evening. Overall, the climate is tropical, with an average temperature of 72°F (22°C). It can be much hotter along the coastal areas of the country, and much cooler in the mountains.

In the past, agricultural exports, like bananas and coffee, have been the staple of the Costa Rican economy. However, tourism has always played an ever-increasing role, and now it has become the dominant economic force. Ecotourism travel is the most preferred for expansion because it will provide a sustainable resource for tourism for generations of Costa Ricans to come. Costa Ricans love to show off their country, and sincerely welcome all travelers and vacationers.

San Jose, population over one million, is the capital and cultural heart of Costa Rica. Other major cities (by population) are: Alajuela, Cartago, Heredia, Liberia, Limón and Puntarenas.
To enter the country you now must have a valid passport. Some countries now require your passport to be valid for at least 6 more months in order to leave your country to come here. Check with you embassy or airline. Costa Rica is on Central Standard Time, six hours behind Greenwich Mean Time and one hour behind EST in the States. It does not currently use daylight saving time.
No shots are required. The water in the major cities of Costa Rica is safe and most hotels and restaurants offer purified tap water. You might prefer to drink bottled water or seltzer to be sure. Costa Rica has excellent, low-cost medical care and well-qualified practitioners. Many North Americans come to Costa Rica for cosmetic surgery or dental work.

Costa Rica is a safe destination for 99% of its tourists, but it’s always a good idea to exercise caution whenever one travels. In general, the country has a low crime rate. In most cases, crimes are simple thievery – non-violent crimes of opportunity, so just exercise caution, as anywhere in the world.

Costa Rica has a reputation as one of the most stable and prosperous Latin American countries.

Costa Rica has something for everybody! Whatever your interests; eco-tourism trips bird watching, adventure tours, fishing, diving, rafting, canopy tours, golf, all inclusive hotels, vacation homes or just relaxing on an unspoiled tropical beach, you will find all of that and more in this tropical and secure paradise.

We traveled to Costa Rica on vacation in 2001. Fell in love with the people and their country. Purchased property on the last day of our vacation and built a villa in 2002. Handles villa rentals for five additional villas. Two, three, four and five bedroom villa’s available, all of which are surrounded by Costa Rica’s biodiversity and over looking the Pacific Ocean.

This may come as a surprise… but there are still far too
many people setting out on their vacations without adequate
travel insurance.

The usual story is that you start making your travel plans
and may have a limited budget to work with. Once you take
into account the cost of flights, hotels, tours and other
expenses you try to cut corners to reduce the overall cost
of your vacation.

While keeping costs to a minimum is a good idea it is
important not to go overboard and scrimp on things that are
a necessity such as travel insurance.

Does this mean that you should pay for an expensive travel
insurance package just because your travel agent wants a big
commission? Absolutely not. But you do need to purchase
enough insurance cover so that you’re not stuck in a
foreign hospital facing enormous expenses because you wanted
to save an extra few dollars on your vacation.

Some sensible tips to help decide on the level of travel
insurance you require are:

Check the details of any existing insurance you may have

Sometimes you will find that your existing health and/or
life insurance policies do cover a certain amount of
coverage while you are traveling. Go over the details
carefully and take note of what coverage you have and don’t
have so you can purchase a small travel insurance package
to fill the gaps in your existing coverage.

Check any travel insurance you may have connected to your
credit cards

These days there are a number of credit card companies that
offer free travel insurance as a bonus to card holders. It
is important however to check the amount of coverage
associated with these offers to ensure that it provides you
with adequate coverage for your entire vacation.

Check any previous travel insurance policies you may have
purchased

If you have traveled within the previous year then check any
travel insurance policies you may have taken out for your
previous vacation. Sometimes you will find that your old
policy is still valid if it was a one year policy.

Ensure that you are covered for unexpected expenses

Most travel insurance policies cover medical emergencies but
you should always check that the level of coverage is
adequate for the type of travel and your destination. Also,
while you don’t want to think about an extreme situation or
tragedy during your vacation it is important to ensure that
you are completely covered for any situation that may
eventuate. This means getting insurance coverage for things
such as accidental death and any associated emergency
evacuation.

Unforeseen events or losses

Also make sure you are covered for events such as lost or
delayed baggage, theft of personal belongings, and flight
cancellations or delays. All these events can be expensive
should you need to purchase extra clothes if your baggage is
lost or you need emergency accommodation when a flight is
delayed.

By now you should realize the importance of having adequate
travel insurance and what types of cover to get when
planning your next vacation. There have been numerous horror
stories where travelers have become ill or had accidents
while on vacation and been left with expenses in the tens of
thousands of dollars so don’t let this happen to you.

While travel insurance may be an added expense to your
vacation it is a wise investment and will save you money
should an unforeseen event occur while you’re
traveling.

Normally with a little research you can find discounts in
other areas of your travel to cover the entire cost of your
travel insurance and still leave a little extra money in
your pocket. So what are you waiting for? Get planning that
vacation.

Located in the Pacific Ocean south of Japan, in the group of islands called Micronesia, Guam, USA, is a gem hiding amongst the Pacific islands. In Guam, you can experience the ambiance and beauty of a tropical paradise while enjoying the intrigue and mystery of Asia.

Many people are surprised to find that Guam is a territory of the United States. This makes it the perfect vacation destination for Americans because there is no language barrier or currency to exchange.

Guam is a tiny island, only thirty miles at its widest point, and can easily be circled in a day. In fact, driving the circumference of the island to get your bearings is the best way to spend your first day in Guam. You will be surprised by the sharp contrast between the tourist side of the island, which is located around Tumon Bay in the Northwest, and the native side, which is found toward the southern tip of the island. You should try to start your tour in the south because there is a restricted Air Force Base in the north.

When visiting Guam, you’ll probably choose to stay in one of the resorts along Tumon Bay. These luxury resorts provide every amenity you could desire including private spas and water parks for the kids. After you’ve settled in, spend your first evening on the island at Chamorro Village which is next to Paseo de Susana. This public market is a great way to experience the culture of the native Chamorro people through crafts and local cuisine.

One of the most impressive locations in Guam is Two Lover’s Point. Legend has it that two Chamorro lovers jumped to their deaths from this point when they were forbidden to marry. Sad love story aside, this precipice offers breathtaking views of the island’s shoreline. For the more daring traveler, look straight down the precipice for a simply awesome view of the waves crashing against the rocks at the base of the mountain. It’s something you’ll never forget.

The Island of Guam was a major player in World War II, and there are many relics scattered around the island. If you enjoy scuba diving, the bomb craters left from the war are now home to some of the most colorful species of underwater life. However, if you’re a land lover, the water is so clear that you can enjoy the colorful fish without donning scuba gear!

Finally, Guam’s inland boasts some stunningly beautiful waterfalls. Talofofo Falls is a thirty-foot cascade of water that drops into a deep pool that is open for swimming. Here you can explore a cave that a Japanese sergeant inhabited for thirty years, thinking World War II was still being fought.

Guam is a paradise that is worlds away from the mainland, yet is still a part of America. To experience the friendliness of Pacific life, you must visit this emerald gem!

The princes of Savoy from the south side of the lake did the most notable work. After the Burgandian Wars got over in 15th century and the reformation made thereafter shaped the region around Montreux and Vevey as an attractive destination for the tourists from Italy.
