A Full Day in Mijas Pueblo (And I Still Didn’t See Everything)

October 25, 2026 by Heidi Spain on Foot1 Comment

Four years living twenty minutes from Málaga, and Mijas Pueblo was the trip I kept bumping to next month. Everyone who'd been gave me the same rundown of white walls, donkeys, and a coach park. I figured I already had the picture, so why rush it. I finally drove up a few weeks ago thinking I'd give it two hours before lunch back on the coast. I left at 5pm with a list of things I still hadn't got inside. The lift that drops you into the … [Read more...]

Razor Kayaks R2 Ultra Review: Ten Fossil-Hunting Trips in an Inflatable Kayak

October 21, 2026 by Morne MamlamboLeave a Comment

By Morne Mamlambo, Mamlambo Fossils My first trip in the Razor Kayaks R2 Ultra is the one you can watch in my video Fossil kayak adventure pays off. I drifted down the river toward the river mouth, past people fishing for salmon, with limestone and sandstone cliffs and the odd cave along the way. It was about 86°F (30°C), which is hot for New Zealand, and so peaceful on the water that it felt like the best way to fossil hunt. Drifting … [Read more...]

Inside Palawan’s Last Paradise

October 15, 2026 by Junfil OlarteLeave a Comment

The first glimpse of Palawan takes your breath away—a slender island province in the Philippines stretching like an emerald jewel between the South China Sea and the Sulu Sea. As my small propeller plane descended into Puerto Princesa, the capital city, I knew this journey would be unlike any other. Palawan is not just a destination; it's a living, breathing testament to the raw beauty of nature, a place where limestone cliffs rise from … [Read more...]

Cebu Island Escapes: A Slow and Simple Way to Enjoy the Philippines

September 20, 2026 by Aiden KenzyLeave a Comment

There are places that make travel feel easy. Cebu is one of them. You do not have to plan every hour. You do not have to chase every famous attraction.

A ferry ride, a quiet beach, a small roadside eatery, and a slow afternoon can already feel like a complete vacation. That is the charm of Cebu. It gives travelers many … [Read more...]

Chasing Adventure Across the Alps, Winter and Summer

September 1, 2026 by Penny Roberts1 Comment

The European Alps stretch for more than 1,200 kilometres across eight countries, but the experience varies dramatically across the range. In France, high passes and glacier terrain dominate parts of the landscape, while Switzerland has car-free mountain villages, and Slovenia’s Julian Alps rise in sharp limestone peaks. Even getting around can feel completely different depending on where you are and the time of year. In winter, ski lifts, deep … [Read more...]

The Santa Cova of Montserrat: The Chapel Where, According to Legend, It All Began

August 20, 2026 by Sergio López PrietoLeave a Comment

The Black Madonna of Montserrat, La Moreneta, a 12th-century Romanesque carving of the Virgin and Child

I live in Collbató, at the foot of Montserrat's southern face. When I climb toward the mountain along the Camí de les Coves, there's a moment I never tire of: as I round a bend in the path, a small chapel appears in the distance, wedged into the rock. This is the Santa Cova, and for many of us who live here it's the true spiritual heart of Montserrat, even more than the famous Benedictine monastery. This is the place where tradition sets … [Read more...]
