Mariela has been a forceful ally for LGBT rights as the director of the Cuban National Center for Sex Education in Havana.

On a rare, warm, spring-like winter night in a farmhouse in La Marche, Italy, it was also a bright sunny Sunday morning in California. I was cutting up a chicken and potatoes in my PJ’s, while chef Jason Bartner, in La Marche, instructed me. Jason told me to make sure my chicken was dry, and to use a towel—it won’t get stuck and it will wash. All I had to do was roll out of bed, turn on my IPad, click a link, and there he was—live, available for any questions I had. We braised the chicken a
Finding yourself in a Mediterranean village just 10 kilometers from Budapest is one of the surprises the Danube offers up to travelers. The small town of Szentendre (Saint Andrew) is the gateway to the Danube Bend, a curve of Hungary’s most majestic river. The town retains its 18th and 19th century appearance and atmosphere.
With a population of approximately 26 000, to this day the customs and traditions of Serbs who fled the Turkish hoards at the end of the 17th century are kept al
Spend a few days in Charleston South Carolina's Low Country and you'll either hear about Wild Dunes Resort or be staying there. An iconic beach getaway across the harbor from downtown Charleston in Isle of Palms, Wild Dunes is a sanctuary from everyday hassles. This means you're not even getting inside the gates unless you're on the guest list or show your pass.
The resort's 1600 acre chunk of barrier island wasn't always so intensely developed. Long the stomping grounds of Sewee Natives and loca

Itatiaia National Park is the first and so also the oldest National Park of Brazil. It was inaugurated in 1937 and covers almost 30.000 hectares of the
larger Environmental Protection Area of the Mantiqueira mountain range.
Getting there from Rio de Janeiro is a +/- 200 km drive via the BR116 (Rio – São Paulo). The distance from São Paulo is about 250 Km. I’m
lucky to live in Volta Redonda, which is only 80km from the park.

He took the body of his beloved woman out of the grave, dressed her in queen's clothing, sat her on the throne, knelt in front of her, kissed her dead dried hand, and ordered all his vassals to do the same. "She is my queen eight years already. Now she is your queen too." No one dared to object to King Pedro I of Portugal, and Ines de Castro became the Queen of Portugal ten years after her brutal murder. She died at age 30.
But before this, a bloody love affair to

Es el barrio de la alegría. Bellavista, situado entre el río Mapocho y el Cerro de San Cristóbal de Santiago de Chile, apabulla con tanto colorido y tanta juventud con ganas de comerse el mundo. En los siglos XVII y XVIII era el lugar donde la aristocracia levantaba sus mansiones. Luego llegaron los intelectuales y artistas, como el Premio Nobel Pablo Neruda, que se mudó a su casa La Chascona en 1955 (actualmente la vivienda se puede visitar y constituye uno de los alicientes del barrio).

When did it stop being an experience and more of a package, a deal, a search result?
Travel has turned into an obsession for the cheapest airfare, cheapest hotel room and pretty much the lowest, cheapest cost for anything and every thing related to travel.
Wasn't so long ago that airlines, the most "commodified" of the travel experience, were sufficiently different from each other that you could tell them apart.
There were differences in food served, space between rows of seats, service, in-
Planning holidays is fun and very exciting, and if you are heading towards a marvelous nation like the Maldives, then your fun proportion is going to get doubled. Amid all your packing, daydreaming and excitement, you forget to think upon the most crucial point, which you should never ignore while traveling to a foreign country. If you have taken Maldives holiday packages then the same thing is applicable for the Maldives too. Thus it is better that you take into consideration the most vital par

A local saying describes the Buddha like this: "The Mountain unveils a Buddha, while the Buddha fades into the mountain." If you are traveling in the east of Leshan City, Sichuan Province, you can’t miss the Buddha for your tour. The figure occupies the entire hillside and its head reaches the top of the cliffs, his hands rest on his knees and his face has a serene expression as it gazes at the Leshan city across the river which rushes past its feet.
Looking up at the Buddha is 71 meters high. Hi
It is an unknown town, Guangfu. The nearest big city is Handan, a very historical city, which was the capital of Kingdom Zhao for 158 years (from 386BC to 228BC) and now a industrial centre in the North of China. But Guangfu is just so special. From the moment you step on its land, you can feel it. It is much more than an old town, it is the birth place of Yang Style Taichi.
Nowadays, it is difficult to find such a solemn, peaceful and authentic Chinese town in modern China. Partially reason lie
