Read Haseeb Qureshi 's ten rules for negotiating an employment offer. I agree with all of them so far

When the story of how I landed a job at Airbnb went viral, I was surprised at how infatuated people were with my negotiations. Media…

Lawmakers sick after celebrating legalizing raw milk by drinking raw milk

Lawmakers insist it's the flu, but media outlets have seized on the apparent irony of the situation.

Happy Holidays! Put this on your list for next year!
http://www.stopovertravel.com/events/dress-like-santa-clause-like-everyone-else-all-around-the-world/

Since then it’s expanded to dozens of cities around the world. Sometimes called SantaCon, Santapalooza or Naughty Santa, Stopover Travel prefers ‘Santarchy’. Because that’s what it is. A chaotic mix of thousands of people in Santa Clause costumes wandering downtown cores.

New post: Cycling through rural China
http://www.stopovertravel.com/activities/cycle-through-rural-villages-in-dali-china/

In China, everywhere you go the domestic tourists greatly outnumber foreign tourists. However, if you get even a little off the beaten track you will quickly leave even the throngs of domestic tourists behind. Dali is a great example of this. While the old town is packed with Chinese tourists, few v...

New post: Exploring Ice Caves in Iceland. Only accessible if you travel with a small group tour company!
http://www.stopovertravel.com/activities/explore-a-private-lava-cave-in-iceland/

The enthralling Lake Mývatn region of Iceland offers an array of wondrous sights and experiences, none more unique than a trip to the Lofthellir Lava Cave. Formed by volcanic activity over thousands of years and housing a singular collection of natural ice sculptures, the phenomenal attraction is ac...

We're planning a trip to India... where should the StopoverTraveller go?

Tiger Leaping Gorge in China. Amzing place and not going to last long.
http://www.stopovertravel.com/activities/see-one-of-the-deepest-gorges-in-the-world-before-its-gone/

Tiger Leaping Gorge, one of the deepest in the world, is a welcome break from crowds one tends to face in China. I recommend you go soon, as there is a large construction site at the Western edge of the Gorge, as well as a new road under construction. It suggests they are preparing for an influx of ...

Not as well known as the British Museum, but pretty damn cool.
http://www.stopovertravel.com/destination/see-the-originals-at-the-library-in-london/

London is one of the top tourist destinations in the world. Highlights include palaces, giant clocks, churches, tombs and Ferris wheels. The British museum is arguably the best museum in the world. But you knew all that.

Sure there are drugs, prostitutes and Anne Frank. But this is our favorite activity in Amsterdam.
http://www.stopovertravel.com/activities/boat-through-canals-in-amsterdam/

Amsterdam’s third most famous ‘feature’ is her canals. You can probably guess the first two. But what a third-place finish!

A little less-discovered gem in Prague. Have you been?
http://www.stopovertravel.com/destination/see-the-coolest-graveyard-in-the-world-in-prague-czech-republic/

That title may be false praise. I’m not sure how many ‘cool’ graveyards there are in the world. New Orleans, for one, has a few incredible cemeteries. But, in my opinion, the Old Jewish Cemetery is more interesting.

Ever feel like a hamster running on a wheel? How about a hamster rolling in a ball?
http://www.stopovertravel.com/activities/roll-down-a-hill-in-a-giant-hamster-ball-in-new-zealand/

Up to three people climb into a giant two-layer ball. A bucket full of water is thrown in with them (cold water on hot days. Warm water on cold days). Then the ball is pushed down the hill and everyone starts running so they don’t fall down.

This is not like any resort you have ever been to...
http://www.stopovertravel.com/destination/visit-atlantis/

Stopover Travel rarely (ever?) talks about resorts. But if you are going to do a resort vacation, there is one that stands apart from the rest. Atlantis resort in the Bahamas is a little different from most beach vacations.

Next best thing to an elephant?
http://www.stopovertravel.com/destination/see-the-closest-living-relative-to-an-elephant-in-south-africa/

Elephants are unique animals. They are one of four species other than humans that have been proven to identify themselves in a mirror (the others being chimpanzees, gorillas, and dolphins). They are majestic creatures.

When you go to the Galapagos we recommend finding a boat that will let you do a scuba dive or two.
http://www.stopovertravel.com/destination/do-it-like-darwin/

Every place in the world is unique in it’s own way. There are a handful of places that are far more unique than others. Madagascar. Socotra. The entire continent of Australia.

Did you know Petra was where they filmed Indiana Jones?
http://www.stopovertravel.com/destination/unleash-your-inner-indiana-jones-in-petra-jordan/

You know the scene: After an epic journey, Indiana Jones emerges in front of the temple that houses the Holy Grail. The beautiful shadows. The red stone. The theatrical carvings. The perfect Hollywood set.

Sure you've been to Australia, but did you make it to Kangaroo Island?
http://www.stopovertravel.com/activities/hold-a-koala-and-a-kangaroo/

Whatever koalas are they are the most popular wild animal in the world to cuddle with. Koalas are very slow moving, lazy animals who won’t protest too much if asked to hold on to you for a picture. They are also notoriously cute.

Ever inner-tubed through a pitch-black cave?
http://www.stopovertravel.com/activities/inner-tube-through-glowworm-caves-in-new-zealand/

New Zealand is a country of unique adventures (see our post on rolling down a hill in a giant hamster ball). This suggestion is no different.

Would you be willing to wrestle with an adolescent lion?
http://www.stopovertravel.com/activities/playing-with-lions/

Playing with fire means doing something that could cause you trouble later on. Playing with lions is nothing like that: if it causes you trouble, it will happen right then and there when the lion decides claws are a great addition to the “play-library”.
