Stockholm
As a city located in a Baltic Sea archipelago, it's not surprising that Stockholm has 50 bridges and sightseeing boats moving people between its 14 islands. This contemporary and welcoming capital of Sweden is nonetheless easily navigable by foot. Every district here has a distinct flavor, from the sophisticated Östermalm to the bustling downtown energy of Norrmalm to the delightful Old Town.
Orvieto
Orvieto, perched atop a volcanic tuff cliff in Umbria, Italy, is a town that effortlessly combines history, art, and striking landscapes. Its dramatic position overlooking the surrounding countryside immediately captures attention.
Sturbridge
Nestled in the scenic heart of central Massachusetts, Sturbridge is a charming town that offers a delightful blend of historical intrigue and natural beauty. One of the town’s prime attractions is the Old Sturbridge Village, a living history museum that brings the early 19th century to life. The village is renowned for its extensive collection of artifacts and its engaging, hands-on exhibits that provide a fascinating look at life in the early 1800s.
St. John Island
Think of it as a beach a day even on Leap Year. That's right, 366 beautiful beaches encircle this tropical island paradise, the focus of centuries of battles between Spain, France, Great Britain and Denmark. The Dane's influence has been the strongest.
Whitsunday Island
The Whitsunday Islands sit in the heart of Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, where more than 70 islands rise from wide blue seas and offer an invitation to explore. Whitsunday Island itself is the largest of this group, known internationally for its ribbon of white silica sand stretching over seven kilometers at Whitehaven Beach. This sand feels cool underfoot even in warm sunshine because it’s made of nearly pure silica carried there by ancient ocean currents.
