The 5 Best Things to Do at the Grand Canyon

November 17, 2020 by Ivana Turkovic1 Comment

The steep, red walls of the Grand Canyon are as iconic as it gets. Miles upon miles of epic hiking trails, photo-ops that look like snapshots of a different world and unruly, dusty wilderness just begging to be explored are just the tip of the iceberg. The Colorado River has chiseled this legendary 270-mile long canyon into something that has to be seen to be believed — the Grand Canyon is a must-visit, there’s no doubt about it, and here is … [Read more...]

Living the Independent Lifestyle, Freelance Writing

June 12, 2020 by DaveLeave a Comment

When I started my travel site in 1996, there were very few independent online travel focused websites. Like many others (especially those beginning blogs), my site began as a personal journal - a place to compile notes from various trips with tips and tricks to help other travels avoid mistakes that I made on my own travels. Over the years I've retained this focus - but the site has also morphed into more of a travel community with writers … [Read more...]

Aspen Meadows Resort a Dolce Resort: The World’s Best Biscotti Are In Aspen, Colorado

November 13, 2019 by Allison TibaldiLeave a Comment

I’m lucky enough to have lived in Tuscany for several years. During my time in the Chianti region, I consumed hundreds of biscotti made by professional bakers and family members alike.

This biscuit originated in the Tuscan city of Prato but they are now popular all over Italy and far … [Read more...]

It’s so big, in fact, that watching the sunrise in one section of the canyon is oftentimes a completely different experience than watching it from another area. Why? The Grand Canyon has a huge variety of terrains and biomes. You can find … [Read more...]
