Our recent weekend in Ceuta, the Spanish city in North Africa

Photos by David Paul Appell unless otherwise noted Both my husband and I have always had something of a fascination for oddities of geography, and so Spain´s two cities of Ceuta and Melilla, on the coast of North Africa, had been forever on my bucket list. Since moving to Spain, we ticked Melilla off that list three years ago, and this past spring we finally made it to sister city Ceuta for a two-night visit. Perched on a narrow peninsula where the Mediterranean Sea meets the Atlantic Ocean,…

7 spots to definitely not miss in Havana

Eric Marshall Deteriorated though much of it is, what might be the most surprising thing to travelers about Cuba´s capital - still the most beautiful in the Caribbean - is how well-rounded it also is. Especially culturally, with restaurants, cafés, shops and ubiquitous music joined by high-quality museums such as the Museum of Fine Arts, with international as well as Cuban works, divided between a modern facility and the magnificent late-19th-century Centro Asturiano (Asturian social club);…

European Capitals of Culture 2026: Oulu, FInland and Trenčín, Slovakia

Arto häkkilä, Scotch Mist Every year since 1985, the cultural grand poobahs of the European Union have designated one to three of the continent's cities as Capitals of Culture, focusing not only on their own cultural offerings but also allowing them to organize a series of wider cultural events (many with a strong pan-European dimension) - which bring in considerable additional revenue; foster urban renewal; and raise their international profiles and images. Since the first was Athens (then…

Why Zambia´s Capital Lusaka Is Worth a Visit

Mondoka Zambia Set on a high plateau in the center of the country and surrounded by rolling countryside, this low-rise, sprawling city of 3.3 million is one of Africa´s fastest growing - and it´s highly underrated, ending up surprising more than a few visitors. Though it may not have the safari fame of Livingstone or South Luangwa, Lusaka has no grand monuments but it does provide a vibrant look into modern Zambian life — where street-food stalls, crafts and traditional markets, contemporary…

I went to college in Washington DC many years ago, and have been back a number of times since, but lately it's been quite a while. So just this week I was interested to catch this very recently in the Huffington Post.

Just saw "Uncharted" several days ago - silly but quite a ride (not surprising, since it was adapted from a video game) - but one of the things I especially liked about it was seeing locations in Barcelona - the Sagrada Familia, Montjuich, the Barri Gòtic, Santa Maria del Pi, and so forth! Here's the trailer: https://youtu.be/eHp3MbsCbMg

I was in Toronto once in April -- and it snowed. But I had a great time anyway! Can't wait to go back.

Welcome to our new group members. It is nice to see so many new places added to our list. It makes me want to get out and explore. Though know that is not realistic as Toronto's spring and summer traveler's have begun to trickle in.
