Everlater Discover: It’s All About Everywhere

Now available for a limited time only in beta on Everlater, you can use the new Discover feature to search for any place you’re thinking about visiting and find out more about what others have thought of it! This is a great feature that we’ve really enjoyed experimenting with and wanted to let everyone else explore as well.

In Bariloche, Argentina, Annie describes a restaurtant called Tarquino: “This place was made completely out of Patagonia Cypress and resembled a hobbit house. Not only was the building made of wood, but there were very large trees that were scattered throughout the restaurant that were growing through the roof. It was a traditionally Patagonian menu. The food was delicious!” Don’t miss the chance to eat Patagonian food in a hobbit hole!

In Bangkok, Thailand, Norm warns about the gem scam, which sounds like something you definitely want to avoid. “I would hate to say that all locals are out to get you in Thailand, because they aren’t. Like in most countries, the bad ones get to you first and the good ones are only likely to run into you if you are in distress. The famous gem scam is very relevent here. Guys standing on the streets looking like pedestrians or standing in front of a tourist sight claiming that it is closed until a later time or that your clothes aren’t sufficient enough to enter are preditors waiting for prey. They then proceed to offer you a ridiculously cheap tuk tul ride to another sight as well as a thailand tourist office to get info on the city and assure you that the driver will bring you back on time to see the sight you are trying to see right now. Apparently if you accept they take you to hell and back stopping at all their buddies “gem” shops while forcing you to buy expensive colored glass that they claim to be a big score stone.”

Finally, in Barcelona, Spain, Zach and Tyler made some amusing comments about the spicy food and the sweet old lady’s house where they stayed. On food: “Know your gut. Can you handle spicy foods? If you can’t, do not try to impress your friends by trying to. You will definitely pay for it later, and you don’t want to be in the middle of a museum or tour when the food finally hits you…” On lodging: “Some Old Lady’s house. The locals sure are friendly! Too bad she didn’t have any pillows…”
