September 3, 2013 by John Rooney1 Comment

Unless you're a fan of wind and drizzle it is unlikely that a UK holiday can fulfil your dreams in terms of climate - but that doesn't necessarily mean that you are desperate to find the hottest and sunniest locations. As well as a veritable cornucopia of cultures to enjoy there is also a wide range of climates to experience but, depending on what sort of holiday you're looking for, where is the best place to go and when?

Exploring Michigan’s Upper Peninsula

August 30, 2013 by Laura P.3 Comments

Maybe Michigan’s Upper Peninsula is called God’s Country because only a supernatural force could withstand the ferocious Feel-Em-No-See-Ems, extreme weather, potentially dangerous wildlife or the keen loneliness of the endless forest. Then again, anyone who lays eyes on this place can’t fail to feel something celestial is at work. From Tahquamenon Falls and the Porcupine Mountains to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and autumn colors … [Read more...]

I Sweat, Therefore I Am (Sweaty)

August 27, 2013 by Tom Bentley4 Comments

The original author of the old saw about death and taxes never sat down at the equator. If he had, he would have instantly added “sweat” to his timeless twosome. I lived on the small Micronesian island of Kosrae for a year, and I had a constant companion: whether a silky sheen of perspiration or dripping rivulets of body water, sweat was never far from my side. Or my arms and legs either. The propinquity of the equator means that islanders … [Read more...]

Escape to Carmel-by-the-Sea

August 25, 2013 by Catherine Sweeney3 Comments

There’s no place like home, but when a trip is ending, I’m always a little sad unless I’ve got the next excursion in mind. Coming home after almost three weeks of having a fantastic time in the Emilia-Romagna and Puglia regions of Italy, I needed to plan a getaway! I found solace in Carmel-by-the-Sea. About a two-hour drive south from San Francisco, Carmel is a convenient getaway for area residents or visitors to San Francisco Bay Area. … [Read more...]

Santa Barbara: Make Mine Mediterranean

August 22, 2013 by Tom BentleyLeave a Comment

Oh the dizzying thoughts of a Mediterranean vacation: maybe a waterside villa in Lake Como, touring Turkey’s Turquoise Coast, or perhaps olive picking in Mykonos? Dizzying indeed—particularly the price. But there’s a stateside Mediterranean that’s no dowdy stepsister, and it’s only a few hour’s drive and many dollars less: Santa Barbara. Wrapped between the mountains and the sea, with picturesque palm trees for its ribbons, Santa Barbara … [Read more...]
