11 Safety Tips for Solo Female Travelers in Korea

January 10, 2026 by Minjung SeoLeave a Comment

Korean Girl Explains_Seoul at night

Is Korea safe for a solo female traveler? For the most part, yes! Korea is a generally a great destination for female travelers, until you want some authentic Korean food or KBBQ. Some restaurants might not accommodate solo diners. But it's not because of your nationality. Their minimum order usually starts at a two-person portion, so they would refuse to serve me as well. Back to safety, it's always better to be safe than … [Read more...]

The Insider’s Itinerary: How to Find the Real Hunter Valley (Beyond the Big Names)

January 5, 2026 by David HenryLeave a Comment

The Hunter Valley is a bit of a legend in Australia. As our oldest wine region, it carries a certain weight. But for a first-time visitor, it can be... overwhelming. On my first trip years ago, I made the classic mistake: I bounced between the three giant, famous wineries you see on every billboard, tasted the same two styles of wine, and left feeling like I’d missed something. I had. The real soul of the Hunter isn't on the main road. It's … [Read more...]

7 Van Essentials: What to Know Before Your First Van Trip

December 29, 2025 by DaveLeave a Comment

Road trips are the ultimate freedom in lifestyle; when I go on a road trip, I have a rough idea of my geographical coverage, but I leave the trip mostly unscripted and unplanned letting the journey unfold as circumstances dictate. Some of my favorite road trips are to California's Eastern Sierra Nevada mountains, winding my way south into the desert, especially Death Valley and the Mojave. The silence, the stillness and the remoteness of … [Read more...]

A little preparation goes a long way, and the freedom is still very real. Here are five practical tips that make traveling under 21 smoother, cheaper, and far less … [Read more...]

Five Wine Regions That Changed How I See the World

December 20, 2025 by Ian Cauble2 Comments

Wine has a way of turning geography into memory. Not just places on a map, but moments burned into your senses—the smell of hot stone, the scrape of gravel underfoot, the way a long lunch quietly becomes dinner. Over the past 25 years, including the formative years spent training to pass the Master Sommelier exam, these experiences have shaped how I understand wine and the world around it. These are the places I return to in my memory—and the … [Read more...]
