The “Frozen South” (very distantly related to the Frozen North) is where all the action is and trust us – it’s way underneath “Down Under.” It’s too cold to post very often but the information is very hot!

From gorillas in Rwanda to the melting snows of Kilimanjaro and the best “sundowners” for every game drive in Africa – we’ve been there, done that and now want to talk about it. As if you have to ask – we love fine South African wines like Klein Constantia, Thelema and Vergelegen and like visiting the wine estates of Jordan Vineyards and Warwick Estates!

Asia is the favorite destination of FlyerTalkers. So it should come as no surprise that they have asked and talked about golden palaces, ancient temples, jungle treks, garden bistros, seaside cafés, classic noodle stands and where the best hawker centers are. And don’t forget the threads about Angkor Wat, smoldering volcanoes and of course, where the best pristine beaches are.

As one of Asia's most intriguing destinations, there’s more to talk about than the Singapore Sling, (it’s often a popular destination for mileage runners) and thus, members have learned where the best pan-asia foods are, where to embark on a night safari with Bengal tigers, where the best fortune teller is among the Chinese temples and of course, where to find those rare Shan and Thai Buddha statues amid the colonial architecture.

There’s much more to China than the terracotta warriors, hiking the Great Wall, seeing the “Birds Nest” in Beijing, exploring the old Silk Road and wrapping up a slice of Peking Duck. In fact, as soon as we sip some more tea, let’s get started reading these threads and much, much more … all from our members who have been there and back.

From the Star Ferry to the top of the peak without stopping for dim sum, this city ranks on everyone's 'visit' list.

There’s more than images of elephants and snake charmers in this vast country. You can see the Taj, Raj(istan) and the Third Eye of Shiva even with time left to enjoy curry in a hurry.

There's nothing 'Lost in Translation' here as we talk about the sights, sounds and the visuals of this gateway to the Orient. Tip: slurp the noodles and gift the kimono.

Listen as FlyerTalkers give advice on where to visit ancient civilizations that rose and fell, cruise the Nile, explore the rose-red city of Petra and shop among Dubai’s skyscrapers. And don’t be surprised if one offers advice on where to take tea in Iran. This is the land of deserts, seas and ancient ruins and the advice is very handy.

Done that: elephant trekking in Chiang Mai, tuk-tuks and long-tail boats in Bangkok, beach time in Phuket. Not done that: Phi Phi, street food, Bangkok tailor. Sawasdee – it’s all inside.

You'll never fall into the tourist traps when you travel with advice from FlyerTalkers. If you’ve wondered about the richest underwater kingdoms on earth, cuddling with koala’s, or breaking in your board shorts at a legendary beach and seeing towering rock formations carved by the ocean? Then this is all talked about in the lands of "no worries" - Australia, New Zealand, Tahiti, Fiji and the South Pacific's other islands which seem to have it all.

Questions about the legendary cultural capitals of Europe, from the vineyards and chateaux of the Loire Valley, the lovely villages of Oxford and Stratford-upon-Avon, the hill towns of Tuscany, and the spectacular scenery of the Alps – FlyerTalkers have been there, done that and live there with advice for all. If you have ever thought about climbing the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy, floating down the Danube River in Austria, or run with (or away from) the bulls in Spain, then these and many other threads await you.

Germany as we know it is more than bratwurst, Bauhaus, cobbled streets, music festivals, hiking in the Black Forest, Oktoberfest, , the Zeppelin Museum, castles, baroque architecture, picturesque villages, beer gardens, medieval towns, half-timbered houses along the Romantic Road, vineyards along the Rhine River, the Alps and Wagner’s opera’s.

Italy as we know it is more than a hike among olive groves or the steep area of Cinque Terre, riding the cable cars over Mont Blanc, the best pasta, the Vatican Museums, driving the Great Dolomite Road, Tuscany, the grand hotels of Rome, little-known trattoria’s, partying at the spring Carnevale in Venice, cruising the Brenta Canal and the Lake District. Now, do we have your interest?

Russia is the world's biggest country and has the world’s longest railroads. It also has gold-domed churches, historical palaces, striped cathedrals, Fabergé’s and the treasures of the Hermitage Museum and the Kremlin. And oh yea, is the home of Ivan the Terrible and Tchaikovsky. But the most popular question? How to get the Russian Visa!

We finally found the Bay of Pigs for everyone (aka Playa Girón), and now we’re on to valuable information about cigars, rum, old cars and so much more.

Did you know that Toronto has the same latitude as northern California? OK, did you know they have great theatre, great dining and some of the best lakefront activites in the world? And oh yea, a water park - Niagara Falls, is just a short drive away.
