Besides being a nature lover’s haven and the perfect destination for leisurely strolls down cobblestone streets to catch glimpses of incredible colonial architecture and stunning landscapes, Ecuador is truly a hub for cultural events. Music and festivals are a huge part of Ecuadorian day-to-day life. Throughout the year, locals find many reasons to...
When you think Carnival, you might picture Rio - feathery headdresses, colorful costumes and non-stop parties. But the reaches of Carnival go much further than Brazil. And even though Rio's Carnival has international acclaim, there are tons of bucket list-worthy Carnivals in so many destinations. In some cities, Carnival is a one-day event and in others,...
Two weeks ago, I was walking by a local pizzeria and the owner came out to chat (my kid is a lady magnet). Next thing you know, we were talking about our travels in Costa Rica.

I didn't go on an eco-tourism trip to Costa Rica with the hopes of getting out of my comfort zone. What I wanted to get out of was the nine to five work routine. I wanted to do something meaningful.

Aside from this destination's unbelievably unique landscape and the fact that you can stroll through golden deserts, indulge in local wine tastings, experience top-notch ski resorts, walk among penguins and spot whales, hike on spectacular glaciers, enjoy sultry tango, climb the...
Living in a country that gets travelers from all over the world, I think about how a hundred years ago, simply getting to another city was a real mission. And here we are now, sailing over continents overnight, falling asleep on one side of the world and waking up on the other. The ease with which we can experience new cultures and different landscapes...
If any nation is known for its rugged castles, impossibly beautiful princesses and legendary knights who fought arduously for their kingdoms, it is Scotland. I spent much of my childhood pouring over any King Arthur and Lady Guinevere literature I could get my hands on, letting my imagination wander into an ethereal land of mist rising on deep water lakes...
