Ilok
Ilok, the easternmost town in Croatia on the Danube River, may be small but it has a lot to offer. A well-preserved Franciscan monastery and a 15th century castle make it a popular day trip for domestic as well as foreign tourists. Its wine-making tradition is even older; some say the region's viniculture dates back as early as 280 AD.

Eleuthera Island
Eleuthera Island, one of the gems of the Bahamas, is an enticing blend of natural beauty and laid-back charm. Known for its pink sand beaches and crystal-clear waters, this island stretches over 100 miles, offering visitors an intimate escape from the bustle of larger tourist destinations. A must-see for beach lovers is Harbour Island, just a short ferry ride away, where the famed Pink Sands Beach provides a stunning backdrop of pale rose-colored sand against the turquoise sea.
Dordogne
The British have long been associated with the Dordogne Valley. Fertile and green, this is where the 100 Year's War was fought. Many of the castles and "Bastides" were built by the British. The French say it is the land with "a little bit of everything", from a gentle river to lush pastures to wonderful wineries.
