Solo in Sweden

August 15, 2024 by Rosie McCann1 Comment

June must be the perfect time to visit Sweden. Quite far north, and in the build-up to solstice, the sun doesn’t set until around 10pm. The flowers were in full bloom in parks and roadside.

Five Easy Culture Highlights to Experience on a Visit to Marrakech, Morocco

March 15, 2024 by Michelle Lawson1 Comment

Marrakech backstreet

Why go to Marrakech, Morocco's fifth-largest city? For a start, Marrakech is an ideal destination to discover a taste of North Africa combined with French influence. The walled medina, where donkeys still transport goods, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The tiled palaces are stunning and the souks--piled with pots, spice pyramids, and leather bags--will enchant every traveler. But it may feel that every traveler is alongside you as you take a … [Read more...]

Experience a New Kind of ‘Snowbirding’ in Carson Valley Annual Eagles & Agriculture Brings Raptors to the Area

February 1, 2024 by DaveLeave a Comment

CARSON VALLEY, Nev. – While humans famously tend to vacation in warmer climates during winter, nature reflects a vastly different reality, especially in Carson Valley, Nevada, nestled between the Sierra Nevada and Pinon Mountain ranges and just 45-minutes south of the Reno-Tahoe International Airport. In fact, bald eagles and other raptors follow herds of cows during birthing season in winter, swooping in and feasting on the afterbirth of … [Read more...]
