The incredible edibles of Belgium

Whenever I think of Belgium, I recall digging into a dish of mussels while seated on a sunny square in Brussels, in the shadow of a lacy medieval spire. My waiter bragged, "In Belgium, we eat as hearty as the Germans and as fine as the French." Belgium is where France meets northern Europe — and you can taste the cultural influences. The Flemish (Dutch-speaking natives of Flanders — now northern Belgium) were ruled by the dukes of Burgundy, and […]

Souvenir shopping in Europe? Lighten up

Shopping in Europe can be fun, but don't let it overwhelm your trip. On one guided tour of the British Houses of Parliament I saw half the group skip out on the tour to survey an enticing array of plastic "bobby" hats, Big Ben briefs, and Union Jack panties instead. Focus on local experiences, and don't let your trip become a glorified shopping spree. As a fanatic about packing light, I used to wait until the end of my trip […]

Lyon France

Business & Lifestyle

Sightseeing high and low in hilly Lyon

Smartly situated Lyon — just south of Burgundy, north of Provence, east of the Alps, and centered on a peninsula at the convergence of two major rivers — has long been a major culture hub. But its enjoyable cityscape is refreshingly untouristy, despite its welcoming old town, classy shops, worthwhile museums, and renowned cuisine. Just two hours from Paris by train, Lyon makes an easy one- or two-night stopover. Lyon's sights are concentrated in three areas: historic Vieux Lyon (the […]

Have a fleet of truckers? How to tackle break time for your truckers

If you own a fleet of delivery drivers, the chances are that you’ve been keeping on top with recent ruptures in break legislation. State laws, like California’s meal time break law, outline that drivers should have a thirty-minute break for every five hours they spend on the road. Federal law, however, states that drivers should spend eleven out of fourteen hours on the road, with a ten-hour break between shifts. All of which must now be logged with installed truck […]

Harley Davidson prepared to rent electric motorcycles to commuters

Commuting: the bane of working people’s lives. Heading to work may be difficult enough on a Monday morning, but when you are faced with a lengthy commute stuck in a packed carriage, pressed up against others with no personal space (and that’s if you manage to get onto the train or bus in the first place), it’s easy to feel filled with dread. You don’t get paid for this time and it’s something that you’re going to have to engage […]

What’s new in France for 2019

France has a rich history, an impressive infrastructure, and a tourism industry trying valiantly to cope with its big crowds. Travelers who plan ahead enjoy big rewards. Paris' most famous landmark, the Eiffel Tower, has a new look. A glass wall now rings its base for security reasons, with one access point at each side, meaning you can no longer wander freely under the tower. Visitors should allow an extra 30 minutes to go through screening. Also, summit tickets for the […]
