A Blast from the Past

by Andrew Risch

Jan 10, 2019

Over holiday break, my best friend from high school came home to visit family and friends. The first night he was back, we were looking for something to do. We were both hungry, so we wanted eat — the problem was we did not know where.

Out of nowhere my friend exclaimed he knew exactly where we should go: Nifty Fifty’s in Philadelphia.

For those who do not know Nifty Fifty’s, it is a staple in the community for great food and an interesting venue. Now Nifty’s is not by any stretch of the imagination fine dining, but it is a wonderful family spot, and the atmosphere is always cheerful.

One of my favorite parts of the trip was seeing all of the old-school neon they have hanging in the restaurant.

We had some good nuggets and some phenomenal milkshakes; it was a great time and it was spent with great people.

Mindfulness City in Kingdom of Bhutan Unveiled as Future Economic Hub

In front of an audience of 30,000 Kingdom of Bhutan residents and officials, His Majesty King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck presented his vision for a new economic hub in Bhutan. Located between India to the south and China to the north, Bhutan is one of the most beautiful destinations in the world. Bhutan came late to global tourism. It opened its borders to international visitors in 1974 and, while tourism definitely increased, residents are enduring “light” rush-hour traffic in Thimphu, its capital city, as the only Asian capital without traffic lights.

Amansara Review

It was more than a car journey; it was a transition between worlds. At our first hotel in Siem Reap, huge coaches constantly pulled up outside the lobby to deposit or receive international tour groups; we departed in very different style, in a 1965 black Mercedes limousine once owned by King Sihanouk. The mundanities of mass tourism were left behind. We progressed through the chaotic Cambodian streets in regal comfort and soon arrived at a solid gate.
