In the Chile Lakes Region on the south-central coast just under two hours by air from capital Santiago, lies the Chiloé Archipelago, its largest island one of this fascinating country's most fascinating destinations - a mix of wild nature and mountainous interior, pristine beaches, and distinctive architecture (including more than 150 historic wood churches) that's like taking a time machine back a century. And while cattle ranching, farming, and fishing st

Becker Vineyards

It all began when the Becker family began searching for a log cabin to renovate for their Texas Hill Country getaway from their main residence in San Antonio. Inspired by travels abroad where they developed a passion for wines, the Beckers felt that central Texas was ripe for supporting more top quality vineyards. They purchased a cabin in 1990 on 46 acres of raw land and quickly discovered that native mustang grapes left over from German settlers grew abundantly in the fallow f

Once we can all start traveling again (hopefully by the summer), families will be looking to get out and experience - and bond with quality time together in - some of the amazing places our world has to offer. Here are four of the destinations I can think of to do just that:


Fabulous Florida, the Total Package

Beaches and the warm weather are, of course, what draw most visitors to the Sunshine State, from the Keys up the Atlantic and Gulf coasts, with top destinations including Miami, Fort

With lovely countryside, coasts, hills, vales, forests, and towns, much of Britain has much to offer families - or anyone, really - interested in a rewarding road trip. Here are three particularly excellent routes - two in England and one in Wales - that will delight everyone, young and old. (And by the way, remember that especially in the case of families of four or more, it's usually better to rent a van so that everyone can have ample space, as well as room for any luggage you

Old Delhi’s Chandni Chowk district is home to one of the Indian capital's oldest and busiest markets - as well as the country's busiest wholesale market - dating back to the 17th century. It's a colorful, raucous mix of shoppers both local and international browsing and buying from vendors offering an enormous range of products from household goods to art, handicrafts, and souvenirs. It's a singular (and highly Instagrammable) exemplar of Indian lifestyle and culture that's

When you think of world art meccas, the likes of Paris, Amsterdam, New York, and London are what typically come to mind. But there are quite a few others which are home to surprisingly rich art culture, and a good example, just a half hour's drive from Baltimore-Washington International Airport, is Maryland's largest city (pop. 602,000). nd you will be surprised by the rich and impressive art culture found in this city. And here are four excellent examples:

Visiting the castles of Germany is a wonderful experience for children. And of course many adults love it at least as much! You'll feel like you've stepped into a magical fairy tale. There are a number of scenic driving routes which will allow you to include many of the country's most famous and dramatic, such as the north-south Romantische Strasse and the east-east Burgenstrasse. While the former is more popular and you'll find a greater number of fellow tourists also following it, the latter i

As concern for our shared global biosphere rises, many are taking it to heart when it comes to travel, as well. Along with booming ecotourism, both providers and consumers in the travel and tourism sector are looking to promote tourism that's "sustainable" - a trendy buzzword, for sure, but one that simply means striving to minimise as much as possible any negative impacts on our increasingly beleaguered environment whilst allowing visitors to enjoy and learn more about it.

Some people fly without difficulty. When their plane drops in turbulence, stress hormones are triggered by their brain just as in the brain of a person whose nerves get jangled. The person who flies easily regulates the stress hormones – and the effects of the stress hormones – automatically and unconsciously.

The anxious flier, lacking automatic regulation, tries to regulate intentionally. When stress hormones are released, the person must prove what triggered the hormones is be

Located halfway along the coast of Vietnam, Hoi An is famous for its delicious food, excellent tailors and one of Vietnam's most historic old quarters, dating back to the 15th century and marked as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. And beyond its innate appeal, there's another feature which invariably enchants visitors. Every month on the 14rh day of the lunar month and the night of the full moon, people turn off their electric lights and the traditional Hoi An L

With its deep water harbour and a population of a bit over 5,200, the town of Kinsale in County Cork has been an important sea port for more than 1,500 years. St Multose founded a monastery here in the 6th century, and the early Celtic settlement that grew up around the estuary was later supplanted by a Viking trading post. The Normans fortified the town in the 13th century, and over the next 200 years it developed as a centre for fishing and shipbuilding.

India is geographically abundant and varied, with lush valleys, snow peaks, hills, lakes, green meadows, plateaus, huge deserts as well as beautiful coastlines and also bayous. But some are less well known than others; here are four examples.

Spain's third largest city (with a population of just under 800,000) is situated halfway down Spain's eastern Mediterranean coast, in between Barcelona and Murcia. It's easygoing, easy to get to (with links from all over Europe), and easy to get around. So here are 5 reasons to take a city break in Valencia.

The Lovely Climate

Valencia's weather is some of the best in Spain, with more than 2,660 hours of yearly sunshine.  Compare that with just 1,400 hours in London! The best time

Travel isn’t always a bed of roses. There are natural disasters, tainted products, bad actors, data breaches, regional and global viruses, and events big and small that require industries to step up, speak up, and do whatever it takes to care of their employees and customers. 

As the coronavirus outbreak tops 156,000 cases and 5,820 deaths in some 145 countries (at the time of this writing), it’s an appropriate time to offer advice on how to handle an industry crisis.

They fly through the air with the greatest of ease, these Totonac "bird men" re-enacting ancestral traditions in their home town of Papantla, located on forested hills a four-hour drive or one-hour flight from Mexico City in this country's northern Totonacapán region of Veracruz state (it's four hours by bus from the city of Veracruz). It's truly a great show - and furthermore a true slice of authentic Mexican culture with pre-Hispanic origins dating back to 600 AD.

Australia's second largest city is a delight to visit, for sure, with highlights including the National Gallery of Victoria, the Melbourne Museum, the Melbourne Cricket Ground, the Royal Botanic Gardens, the Laneways, and Federation Square. But among some it also has a reputation for being on the expensive side. I wanted to visit, but was skeptical as to whether I could pull it off on a budget. But I gave it a go, and was pleasantly surprised to learn that it wasn't so difficu
