New York City: Train or Car to DC from NYC?
If you're looking for a slightly less stressful ride, I'd do the train or bus. The drive is long enough that you might get a little antsy, and if you just take the main highway it's not particularly stunning scenery. :) Hope this helps! See More
Are you simply asking about transport from the airport? If so, try: Lyft, Wingz, or Uber. All will be cheaper than a taxi. There is also Super Shuttle as Maria mentioned, and the Fly Away bus is dirt cheap, but it will take up more of your time overall, since it makes stops... See More

Black Rock City: Why Do You Go Back to Burning Man?

Most beautiful waterfalls in the world?
I saw Dettifoss in Iceland and it was amazing. I went around New Year's so the country was covered in white, and since it's in the northern part of the country there were 2 other people there. Regardless, it's beautiful.... See More
New Orleans: Where can I find the best jazz bars in New Orleans?
As it's already been mentioned, Frenchmen Street is the way to go. It's beautiful, and if you walk down the street in the daytime or evening, you'll hear live music coming from all different bars and restaurants. The Spotted... See More
