Coloring isn’t just for kids. It can help the brain to switch off of other thoughts and to focus. It may sound absolutely ridiculous, but adult coloring really can be a great alternative to meditation for people just like me who have trouble stopping the ever running train of thoughts from constantly barreling down the […]
16 Places to Travel in 2016
As the new year kicks off and you drag yourself back in to the office, you’re no doubt already day dreaming about your next vacation. This year has a lot going on with destinations abroad like Germany celebrating 500 years of the Beer Purity Law and Rio de Janeiro hosting the Summer Olympics. The US’ […]
The Ancient Ritual of Panevin
Christmas may be over in most of the rest of the world, but the Christmas season in Italy doesn’t officially end until the Epiphany on January 6th. Here it’s not Santa Claus (Babbo Natale in Italian) that brings gifts on Christmas Eve; instead it’s an old witch called La Befana who arrives on her broomstick […]
Poffabro Presepi: An Italian Christmas Tradition
Nestled in the Val Colvera in the foothills of the Carnian Alps lies a charming little hamlet called Poffabro. A hamlet this small with its population of just 181 wouldn’t normally register on most visitors to the Friuli Venezia Giulia‘s itinerary, but for one month each Christmas seasons people come from far and wide. You […]
Luxe Adventure Traveler’s 2015 Year in Review
Another year comes to a close. 2015 was a weird year for us and on one hand I’m honestly so happy for this year to come to an end. We spent the better part of the year apart with Tim in Afghanistan, our 16 year old cat abruptly became sick and now is in kidney […]
Exploring Iceland’s Westfjords
Iceland is hardly off-the-beaten-path these days. Eyjafjallajökull‘s 2010 air-traffic-halting eruption may have wreaked havoc, but it also put Iceland on the map and on most travelers’ bucket lists. These days Iceland is more accessible than ever with the near constant addition of new routes and the Icelandair Stopover program makes it hard to resit exploring […]
Cay Hopping in the Abaco Islands
The vibe of the Abacos is pretty well summed up by a sign we spotted in Hope Town: “Open if we’re here, closed if we’re not.” Though Great Abaco is one of the largest islands in The Bahamas and home to one of the largest cities in The Bahamas, its remained free of the mass […]
Eating Our Way Around Ljubljana on a Ljubljananjam Food Tour
There’s are always two things I’m rather adamant about when traveling. First, when Tim and I are on the hunt for a restaurant, I’m always saying we need to go over at least one street from the main tourist drags. Second, food tours are an excellent way of discovering a city and I mean both […]
The Bahamas Resort You Should Avoid
We pulled up to a construction zone. I glanced around second guessing myself that we were in the right place. Surely a resort with pipes and construction materials strewn across the parking lot couldn’t be open to guests, let alone be hosting a wedding…could it? The construction materials littering the parking area in front of […]
Swimming With the Pigs in The Bahamas
The Exuma Cays have some famous residents. Stars like Oprah, Johnny Depp, Nicholas Cage and Faith Hill and Tim McGraw all own islands there. But the Exuma Cays have another unlikely star. Swimming with the pigs in The Bahamas is topping many travelers’ bucket lists these days and when a pack of porkers start doggy […]
