Located in the Atlantic Ocean, this archipelago of 10 islands is just 350 miles off the coast of Western Africa, but it’s worlds apart. Featuring volcanic terrain and long, sweeping sandy beaches, the Cape Verde islands are blessed with tons of wind and undiscovered beaches.

Head south deep into Brooklyn’s interior on the elevated D train and get off at the 50th Street station. At the bottom of the stairs, an open air market greets you with fresh fruits and vegetables anytime of the year. One block away on 13th Avenue is Borough Park, spelled by locals as Boro Park– the main thoroughfare of one of the world’s largest Orthodox Jewish communities outside of Israel. Here you can learn a bit about Jewish culture by simply walking the streets and picking up a neighborhoo

Back before the industrial revolution, travelling was a perk that only the elite could afford, a luxury denied to most of the population, who even if they could afford the journey itself - which they couldn't - couldn't afford to stay away from work for that long.

Life acceleration makes us realize the value of time wasted while waiting at airports for delayed flights. Activities or meetings need to be moved at another date or time until you arrive. This makes you think about private aircrafts, which is a faster, easier, more customized way to reach any destination in the world.

Fortunately, flying in a private jet is one of the most secured and conducive ways to travel. These jets fly from smaller suburban airports that are near to departure and destinati

Now, I'd always wanted to visit the place, but various factors
