Puerto Penasco
Puerto Peñasco, also known as Rocky Point, rests along the warm waters of the Sea of Cortez in northern Sonora, Mexico. Along its shoreline, Sandy Beach draws visitors with long stretches of walkable sand and calm water, while Playa Hermosa and Playa Mirador offer quieter spots where tide pools appear as the sea pulls back. Boat rides to Bird Island, also known as Isla San Jorge, provide a rare chance to see large colonies of sea lions resting on rocky ledges.
Slovenia
>Slovenia, tucked between the Alps and the Adriatic Sea, is a small country with a strong sense of identity and an impressive variety of landscapes. Its capital, Ljubljana, is known for its walkable center and mix of Baroque, Secessionist, and modern architecture. The Ljubljanica River runs through the city and is lined with open-air cafés and artisan shops.
Saskatchewan
Regina is the provincial capital of Saskatchewan. Covering an area of 251,699 sq. miles, this Canadian heartland is ripe with sprawling farmlands and fertile soil producing almost one-third of North America's wheat supply. The Metis people populate a sparse area of the territory's northern wilderness of lakes, swamps and forest.
Progreso
Progreso, a coastal city in the state of Yucatán, offers travelers a relaxed atmosphere with strong ties to the sea. Founded in 1871 as a port to support trade in the region, Progreso now welcomes both cargo ships and cruise liners to its shores. Its most defining feature is the Progreso Pier, one of the longest in the world, stretching over 6 kilometers into the Gulf of Mexico.
Vézelay
Perched high above Burgundy’s vineyards and fields, Vézelay is defined by its winding stone streets and the great Basilica of Sainte-Marie-Madeleine, a centuries-old destination for Christian pilgrims. Its Romanesque architecture, far-reaching countryside views, and enduring connection to the pilgrimage routes toward Santiago de Compostela give this small hilltop village an unusually rich sense of place.
