Osa Peninsula
Costa Rica’s Osa Peninsula is where rainforest, wildlife, and remote Pacific beaches come together in one of the country’s wildest corners.
-
-
Queenstown
Queenstown earns the ‘adventure capital’ label — bungee, ski, hike, repeat — but the Gibbston Valley wineries made me stay an extra two days.
-
Asia
50 countries, thousands of languages, and the Himalayas to Tokyo’s neon grid — Asia doesn’t fit a single itinerary, and that’s the point.
-
-
New Zealand
Two islands, one country — Milford Sound, Maori marae, Marlborough wine, and the Southern Alps, all within a few hours of each other.
-
Riviera Maya
Skip the resort pool. Riviera Maya’s cenotes are cold, clear, and worth every muddy jungle road it takes to reach them.

-
Berchtesgaden
The Eagle’s Nest sits at 1,834 meters and the views over the Bavarian Alps are earned — Berchtesgaden National Park is the real reason to stay longer.
-
Nuremberg
Nuremberg holds 1,000 years of imperial power and Nazi-era reckoning in the same city — that tension is exactly what makes it worth your time.
-
Belize
The Great Blue Hole is real and worth it — but Belize’s jungle temples and Garifuna coast are what kept me coming back.
-
-
Puebla
Puebla’s mole poblano didn’t originate in a restaurant — it came from a convent. That context changes how you eat here.
-
Anchorage
Anchorage sits where the mountains meet the inlet — and the city itself is just the warm-up act for what’s outside it.

-
San Juan
El Morro’s walls are 25 feet thick in places. Walking the six levels takes longer than you’d expect, and that’s before San Cristóbal.
-
-
Quebec City
Old Quebec’s cobblestones will wreck your shoes and completely rearrange your expectations of what a North American city can be.
