Famous for its turquoise waters, white-sand beaches backed by tall palm trees, and luxurious resorts, the Caribbean is a no-brainer for Americans keen on a sunny getaway in winter, but in places like Punta Cana or Jamaica, it doesn’t come without its downsides. Be it the excessive crowding at beaches or the decreased safety levels, …
We know what’s going through your mind right now: Europe? In the dead of winter? Not in a million years! Granted, it can be unpleasantly cold, and the shorter days can wear you down after a while, but not all of Europe is depressing and moody right now: in fact, there’s one city that not …
Winter is finally upon us, and though the golden sands and warm seas of the Caribbean are certainly an enticing prospect, we can’t think of anything better to do than wandering fairytale villages blanketed in now, exploring Christmas markets, and soaking up the medieval culture. Yep, we’re going to Europe, baby, and if you resonate …

Dreaming of a Caribbean getaway as of late, but Cancun, Punta Cana and the like––and their jam-packed resorts and lack of authenticity––just don’t do it for you anymore?

We get it, European summers are truly unrivaled.
