Painting My Way Through Portugal With a Travel Watercolor Kit
The cafe owner set down a tiny cup of espresso and said something in Portuguese I did not quite catch. I smiled, nodded, and turned back to my sketchbook. Across the narrow street in Lisbon's Alfama district, a woman was hanging laundry from a wrought iron balcony, and the morning light was doing something to the yellowed tiles on the building behind her that I knew a phone camera would never get right. So I painted it instead. I have … [Read more...]
Malta Beyond the Postcard: Why This Tiny Island Deserves a Full Week
Malta is a small island but it has probably the highest density of things to see and do per square kilometre of anywhere I've been. I know that sounds like a brochure. It's not.

Most visitors give it a day or two, usually on a cruise ship stop — they walk around Valletta, take a photo of the harbour, and leave, which means they miss almost everything. Give Malta a week and you'll see what … [Read more...]

Why Mt. Daraitan is the Ultimate Wake-Up Call for New Hikers
In the Philippine mountaineering community, there is a notorious concept known as the budol climb. It usually starts with a friend messaging you: "Let's hike this weekend! It’s just a minor climb, rated 4/9. We’ll be down by lunch." For thousands of unsuspecting beginners, that budol happens at Mt. Daraitan. Sitting on the windward edge of the Sierra Madre range in Tanay, Rizal, Mt. Daraitan has built a reputation that heavily contradicts its … [Read more...]
Hungary in a Hurry: A Quick Adventure through Enchantment
Soon after landing in Budapest, a friend and I were promptly held in one of several contiguous rooms. People from other flights kept arriving, ultimately packing us in like sardines. One of the more curious souls decided to go talk to the well-armed security guards. Apparently we were under a lockdown due to a bomb threat and we were being held until security until bomb sniffing dogs had made a careful assessment of the situation. After about … [Read more...]
Trekking to Annapurna Base Camp: A First-Hand Journey Through Nepal’s Heartland
Trekking to Annapurna Base Camp By Sunita Khadka The alarm went off at 4:30 AM, waking me up from a restless sleep 3,700 meters above sea level. My head hurt a little, which was a sign that the air here doesn't have as much oxygen as I'm used to. But when I unzipped my sleeping bag in the cold, dark teahouse, the thrill of it all made any discomfort go away. I would finally get to Annapurna Base Camp today, after six days of … [Read more...]

Beyond the Greens: Discovering the Ancient Soul of Serik, Turkey
Belek may be world-famous for its luxury golf resorts, but the heart of the region beats a few miles inland in Serik. Step away from the Mediterranean shoreline and the polished Riviera vibe quickly gives way to massive Roman stonework, quiet local streets, and rugged canyons where the water turns a postcard shade of turquoise. It’s the kind of place where you can sleep in a five-star resort and, within the same day, stand inside a … [Read more...]
