Not all that long ago, Colombia’s second largest metro area was sadly synonymous with rampant drug-related violence, the notorious narco-lord Pablo Escobar, and the Medellín Cartel. This new century, though, has seen a remarkable renaissance – noted throughout the world - that has left all that a receding memory (except maybe for a few tours that focus on the sites and stories of the bad old days). These days, as I have discovered on three visits – I truly can’t seem to get e

Like migratory birds, more than 70 eminent authors and thinkers from across the globe just gathered in London this past May 20-21 for what has become an annual fixture, the Jaipur Literature Festival. The venue was different this year, because its traditional base at the Southbank centre had been taken over by the Karachi Literary Festival in what looked like a case of one-upmanship. So this year's gathering took place at the British Library, which was certainly an appropriate alternative venue

New Hampshire is synonymous with classic country inns, each reflecting their distinct personalities shaped by topography, property history, and innkeepers. Adair Country Inn & Restaurant, situated within the borders of White Mountain National Park in Bethlehem, is a perfect example surrounded by its very own 200-plus acres of meadow and forest land interlaced with a network of old carriage roads and hiking trails.

Hey, can you by any chance name a Danish city outside of Copenhagen? Most likely not. Your loss, really, because Denmark's second largest, for example, is a truly charming bit of business called Aarhus, (pop. 265,000, larger metro area 330,000), on the coast of the Jutland peninsula a three-hour drive (or three-and-a-half-hour train ride) from the capital. So charming - and cultured, in fact - that it's been named a European Capital of Culture for 2017.

One of the world’s most romantic and dramatic ancient archaeological sites, Peru’s spectacularly sited “lost city of the Incas” (though in reality an elaborate estate of 15th-century Incan emperor Pachacutec) up in the Andes a three-hour train ride from Cuzco, has become so popular that in effect it’s being loved to death. With an average of more than 3,300 visitors per day in recent years, its hundreds of terraces, pathways, plazas, and buildings spread over 125 square miles (325

‘If you steal a sheep, they’ll hang you, but if you steal a mountain, they’ll make you a Lord’

                                                                                                                          - old Welsh saying.

All of that makes the diversity and sheer excitement of this part of the world even more appealing to gay people across the board, but there are a select few desti

A top beach town on Malaysia's Langkawi Peninsula, Pantai Tengah has many restaurants, clubs and resorts, but does not boast many shopping opportunities apart from a small complex which houses a number of souvenir outlets situated along the beach strip. While duty-free shops in Langkawi are well-frequented for their cheap chocolates, cosmetics, and liquor, handmade souvenirs, Knick knacks and handicrafts still remain relatively pricey.

Recognized as the natural wonder of the world by UNESCO, Halong Bay is among the landscapes in Vietnam most worth visiting for those who love Mother Nature.
