In the Mediterranean Sea, the uncontested queen of nightlife and transgression is Ibiza (Eivissa in Catalan). It is in the Balearic Islands (belonging to Spain), reachable by ferry-boat from Barcelona and Denia, or by plane from all the main European airports even with low coast flies. Ibiza is known as a tolerant place since some centuries ago when it became a pirates’ and fugitives’ hideout. Despite the despotic Franco’s brutal reign on mainland Spain, it became known as an island that was particularly sympathetic to gay men and women, well before most of mainland Europe. In the sixties and seventies it was a destination for hippies from all over the world that established there a community is still present in the island. |

How is it possible to describe Hong Kong and Macau in few words? It’s a very difficult undertaking because they are a mixture of eastern charm and western modernity. They are the symbol of the rapid and unceasing growth of Asian society.  Hong Kong was a dependent territory of the United Kingdom from 1842 until the transfer of its sovereignty to the People's Republic of China in 1997, becoming a special administrative region. It’s located on China’s south coast and the territory consists primarily of Hong Kong Island, Lantau Island, Kowloon Peninsula and the New Territories as well as some 260 other islands.

Moderntripper.com is a website has been born from my main passion: travelling! I not only spend my holidays travelling, but I consider myself lucky, because I travel for my business too. Certainly, on those occasions, I don’t have a lot of time to visit places as I would like or to lie down on the white sand of a tropical beach, however I can’t complain. |

Off Senegal coast, in the Cape Verde archipelago, the Boa Vista island is the ideal place for a low cost holiday based on relaxation and fishing. The island is the meeting point of two giants: the desert and the ocean. Here white fine sand dunes sink into the emerald green water of the Atlantic Ocean. The main town of Boa Vista is Sal Rei, a graticule of alleys, colonial stained houses, a little harbour every morning get lively at the fish market when boats come back. |
