    Worldreviewer’s newest expert, Michael Rutzen is a Shark Behaviour Specialist (which sounds like a particularly thrilling job title) a diver and an underwater photographer.  Have a look at his first couple of recommendations if you’re feeling brave enough: Diving with Bull Sharks

  • Chocolate

    Was reliably informed by, Andrew Straw, one of our cycling experts that some of the best chocolate he has ever tasted comes from Chile’s Lake District…   And for people looking to try and adventure type sport for the first time but worried about making a fool of themselves, snowkiting may be the way to go, it’s fairly new so there are lots of people learning it at the moment.  Apparently it is much easier than kitesurfing ’cause it’s on the flat… Stay tuned for the review.

    In the lead up to All Hallows Eve World Reviewer will be examining the chilling thrills of some of the worlds most haunted places to visit.  One of our ‘Favourite Haunts’ experts, John Blythe has offered a paranormal prize for the best haunted recommendation (more info coming soon) and we’ll be kicking off the list with 50 of the worlds best known haunts.  Check out this grizzly review of The Spirits of Alcatraz from Jon Falkes.

    If as a child you were tormented by nightmares like I was you may prefer to have a look at a different experience, this one is in one of our newest categories, Literary Locations: Anne’s Green Gables.  Our expert says Green Gables has been ‘returned’ to the way the book describes it (it was a working farm which the author visited as a child, but has now been ‘made over‘ to fit in with readers expectations) which is more twee but then a lot safer than an inescapable federal fortress housing the likes of ‘Machine Gun Kelly’ (I’m not familiar with his work but an overactive imagination is a dangerous thing.).
