July 8, 2026 by Lore IvesLeave a Comment

Italy is a beautiful country that tens of millions of people visit every year. It’s one of the world’s most popular destinations and ranks fourth for international arrivals. As popular as it is with tourists, both young and old, that doesn’t mean everyone’s travel plans go off without a hitch.

A New Hampshire summer road trip: mountains, lakes, and the quiet charm of the Granite State

July 6, 2026 by Axel ThomasLeave a Comment

Some states shout for your attention. New Hampshire is not one of them, and that is exactly why I keep going back. Wedged between the crowds of Vermont's ski towns and the tourist machinery of coastal Maine, the Granite State just gets on with being quietly spectacular, and summer is when it does its best work. Last July I gave myself a loose week to drive a loop from the seacoast up into the White Mountains and back down through the lakes. I … [Read more...]

Three Days in Tunisia

July 5, 2026 by Abdul RastagarLeave a Comment

As of the end of 2025, Tunisia has seen a nearly ten-fold increase in tourism in the past few years. Primarily from Mediterranean cruises docking and dumping tourists for the day into the crowded downtown area, where they will visit to the markets and bazaars of the Souk (but won’t see much else.) But don’t knock it, the Souk is absolutely huge and you can easily get lost in the many narrow alleys. Tunis’ Souk also claims to house Africa’s two … [Read more...]

Why Communal Ranch Bukidnon Should Be on Your Northern Mindanao Road Trip

July 1, 2026 by Aiden KenzyLeave a Comment

Bukidnon has a way of surprising travelers. One moment, you are passing through long highway stretches and cool mountain towns. Then suddenly, the landscape opens into rolling grasslands, misty ridges, cattle country, and wide scenic views that feel very different from the usual beach-and-waterfall image of Philippine travel. One of the best examples of that highland charm is Communal Ranch in Impasug-ong, Bukidnon. Known for its open … [Read more...]

San Jose de Cabo, Baja California Mexico – July 2026

July 1, 2026 by DaveLeave a Comment

Located only about 20 minutes by car from the moderately sized Los Cabos International Airport, San Jose de Cabo is a small town easily seen on foot. Known for its art and historical districts. The size of the town is just right - not to small, not to big. Its feel comes from its sun drenched streets, artisan shops, galleries, restaurants and bars. Fortunately the town is completely separate from the resorts (the Zona Hotelera) which line the … [Read more...]

5 Day Barcelona Itinerary for First-Timers: What to Do, Eat & Skip

June 25, 2026 by Aanchal Shukla2 Comments

Barceloneta Beach Afternoon

I landed in Barcelona with a broken suitcase wheel, a dead phone, and absolutely no idea what I was doing. It was my first solo trip to Spain, and I'd spent weeks reading guides that all said the same thing: "Visit the Sagrada Familia before 9 AM for the best lighting." Helpful? Sure. But not exactly the kind of advice that prepares you for the moment you step out of the metro into a plaza full of strangers, with the Catalan sun on … [Read more...]

Is Jetpac a Good eSIM for Europe? What Travelers Should Know

June 23, 2026 by Hazel RobertsLeave a Comment

Europe is one of the easiest regions in the world to explore, but staying connected can become surprisingly complicated. Many travelers visit multiple countries in a single trip, moving between airports, train stations, hotels, and city centers. The last thing most people want is to worry about finding a new SIM card every time they cross a border. That's why eSIMs for Europe have become increasingly popular among travelers. They allow users … [Read more...]
