Chasing the horses: a road trip around Britain’s great racecourses

July 6, 2026 by Axel ThomasLeave a Comment

I did not grow up around horse racing, so I arrived at my first British race meeting expecting a stuffy afternoon of tweed and binoculars. What I found instead was one of the best days out this country offers: part sport, part social occasion, part excuse to wear a silly hat. Last summer I turned it into a proper trip, driving between four of Britain's most famous racecourses over ten days, and I came away a genuine convert. A quick word for … [Read more...]

Why Communal Ranch Bukidnon Should Be on Your Northern Mindanao Road Trip

July 1, 2026 by Aiden KenzyLeave a Comment

Bukidnon has a way of surprising travelers. One moment, you are passing through long highway stretches and cool mountain towns. Then suddenly, the landscape opens into rolling grasslands, misty ridges, cattle country, and wide scenic views that feel very different from the usual beach-and-waterfall image of Philippine travel. One of the best examples of that highland charm is Communal Ranch in Impasug-ong, Bukidnon. Known for its open … [Read more...]

San Jose de Cabo, Baja California Mexico – July 2026

July 1, 2026 by DaveLeave a Comment

Located only about 20 minutes by car from the moderately sized Los Cabos International Airport, San Jose de Cabo is a small town easily seen on foot. Known for its art and historical districts. The size of the town is just right - not to small, not to big. Its feel comes from its sun drenched streets, artisan shops, galleries, restaurants and bars. Fortunately the town is completely separate from the resorts (the Zona Hotelera) which line the … [Read more...]

5 Extraordinary Wildlife Destinations for Nature Lovers

June 17, 2026 by Penny LumasLeave a Comment

Wildlife trips are rarely just about ticking animals off a list. The surroundings also become part of the memory. A day spent tracking pumas in Patagonia might involve hours watching the wind move across empty grasslands before anything appears. In Alaska, bear viewing usually means standing near fast-moving rivers while bald eagles circle overhead. Tanzania's wildlife unfolds across vast open plains, while the Galapagos and Borneo place visitors … [Read more...]

The Complete Guide to Uganda’s Wildlife: Beyond the Gorillas

June 2, 2026 by Jon LarsenLeave a Comment

Uganda has a reputation that precedes it, and that reputation is built almost entirely on one animal. The mountain gorilla is without question one of the most extraordinary wildlife encounters available anywhere on earth, and the opportunity to spend time in the presence of these remarkable primates in their natural forest habitat draws travelers from across the globe to this small, landlocked East African nation. Yet to visit Uganda solely for … [Read more...]

A Journey Carved by Wind, Water, and East African Coastlines

May 25, 2026 by Daniel TimmonsLeave a Comment

Some journeys are shaped by roads, cities, and landmarks. Others are shaped by weather, tides, and the gradual movement of the sea itself. Along the East African coastline and across the islands of the western Indian Ocean, travel still carries that older rhythm. Wind determines direction, currents influence pace, and entire days unfold according to the conditions of the water rather than the pressure of schedules. Credit Pexels / Stunning … [Read more...]
