Isn’t it about time we all moved past the Santorini/Mykonos obsession? Look, I get it—there’s something magical about blue domes and caldera views beneath a blood-orange sunset—but Greece has over 200 inhabited islands, and most travelers barely scratch the surface. Tucked away in the North Aegean, far from the overtouristed Cyclades, Thassos is the kind …

Barcelona is still the number one destination in Spain, no matter how trendy lesser-known spots like Galicia or the Basque Country get. It seems the average doesn’t really care that La Rambla is more crowded than ever, prices are at an all-time high, or even that they’re not even welcome. We won’t judge them. Barcelona …

There aren’t many places in North America that can genuinely pass for Europe, but having French as an official language is certainly a strong start.

We’ve all been somewhere where we feel as if we’re going to melt into the pavement. Heck, we’ve probably all been to beaches that feel like we’ll melt into the sand if we ever got out of the water. Leave those sunny getaways to the East Coast, where you find out real quick why many …

There is a specific kind of exhaustion that hits you when you’re standing in a fluorescent-lit customs hall after a nine-hour flight, clutching a battered passport and waiting for a border agent to stamp your life away. We’ve been completely conditioned to accept that if you want a truly wild, off-the-grid tropical escape, you have …

Bosnia and Herzegovina is probably not the first destination that sneaks into your mind when you’re planning a European getaway. I mean, it doesn’t have France’s world-famous Haussmann-designed cities, Italy’s scenic coastal drives and mouth-watering food, nor Spain’s sun-drenched shorelines. In fact, Bosnia has only about 12.4 miles of Mediterranean coastline, but that’s beside the …

Asia doesn’t exactly struggle to sell travelers on a dream trip.

It’s all smiles in one highly underrated California town beaming with history, mere minutes from some of the West Coast’s top beaches.

We all know the astonishment of Thailand with its world-wonder landscapes, vibrant array of wildlife, tangible cultures throughout massive cities and traditional villages, and of course, insanely cheap street food throughout its famous night markets.

If we’re being honest…many lakes across the U.S. just don’t hold a candle to our amazing beaches. While there are a few select spots like Tahoe and just about anywhere in Wisconsin and Michigan, oftentimes you’ll find brackish waters that conjure thoughts of escaping to the coast. Europe is a different playing field. Many travelers …
