Over my two week trip island hopping around the Bahamas, I managed to visit 13 islands and cays. Some locals even told me that I’d seen more of the Bahamas than they had. So I feel confident in declaring that the Exuma Cays are my favorite place in the Bahamas. Nassau is easy to reach […]
How To Travel Like James Bond
Our favorite international spy is back in the 24th Bond movie and while the ladies love to swoon over Daniel Craig in all his sexy Bondness, it’s the jet setting across the globe that makes me go weak at the knees. There’s hardly another character as well-traveled as James Bond. But you don’t have to […]
Skiing at Austria’s Stubai Glacier
With so many ski resorts to choose from in Austria, why choose Stubai? The Stubai Glacier is the largest glacier ski resort in Austria and it has one of the longest open seasons in all of Europe, with guaranteed snow from late October until June. If you’re planning a ski trip early in the season, […]
Iceland Road Trip Around the Snæfellsnes Peninsula
Iceland is a country filled with take-your-breath-away landscapes that vary from massive blue glaciers to black sand beaches and colorful moss-covered lava fields to misty waterfalls. Since our first trip to Iceland four years ago, it’s become a country easily accessible to travelers with many of them taking advantage of Icelandair’s free stopover. Most explore […]
Adventure and Wine on the Rheinsteig Trail
The Rheinsteig Trail runs for 320 kilometers from Bonn to Wiesbaden, passing by castles and through vineyards on the east bank of the Rhine River. The perfect combination of adventure and wine, the German National Tourist Office invited me to hike part of the long distance trail to celebrate the Rheinsteig’s 10-year anniversary. Tim is […]
Biking The Lido in the Venice Lagoon
Six years ago I sprinted from the ferry stop to the festival grounds for the Venice Film Festival, held each year on The Lido in the Venice Lagoon. After the movie, I got right back on the ferry and sailed the short ride back across to Piazza San Marco. And I hadn’t given The Lido […]
Mount Etna: Europe’s Tallest Active Volcano
I might be a bit obsessed with volcanoes. And not just any volcanoes; its the active ones give me a real thrill. It’s why I couldn’t resist climbing Stromboli to get up close with spewing lava and why the one thing I just had to see when I visited Sicily was Mount Etna. After all, […]
Cittadella: A Hidden Gem in the Veneto
I couldn’t believe I was the only one on the Medieval wall. “It’s like this most of the time,” Ilaria told me as we walked. On one hand, it was utter bliss to be away from the crowds that descend on Italy’s most popular cities in summer. On the other, it’s a shame so many […]
8 Best Up-Close Animal Encounters
Cecil the Lion made news when American hunter Walter Palmer baited and killed Zimbabwe’s beloved human-loving lion illegally on private land. To say Tim and I are saddened and outraged in an understatement. We’ve been on safarai, and even if we hadn’t, we just can’t fathom how anyone could kill our majestic and endangered species […]
Hiking Stromboli: One of the World’s Most Active Volcanoes
Volcanoes fascinate me. Last year I was thrilled to be in Iceland when Bardarbunga started erupting and I got a thrill when I could see the explosions of lava shooting in to the air during my few nights in Myvatn. When I heard that you could trek up one of Italy’s three active volcanoes at […]
