The Philippines is an archipelago of more than 7,600 islands in Southeast Asia, known for its striking coastlines, tropical forests, and vibrant cultural diversity.

Although not accessible by road, it is Peru's most important commerical center in the east. It is on the Amazon which is wide enough to allow freighters at their busy port. The 1880's saw the rubber boom and recently oil has been the boom.

Surfers Paradise is located along the Gold Coast. The 300 days of sunshine throughout the year make it perfect for enjoying the beach. Golfing, wildlife parks and theme parks are just a few of the many things to do.

Bordeaux is ready for its close-up! After years of improvements, modern public transportation is in place and the city is gleaming after a wave of restorations. When visiting this lovely destination, be sure to walk across the Garonne River-spanning Stone Bridge (17 arches in all!) and see Place des Quinconces, France's grandest public square.

Cabo Rojo, located on the southwestern coast of Puerto Rico, is a region of striking natural contrasts where salt flats, mangroves, and limestone cliffs meet the sparkling Caribbean Sea. Its most iconic feature is the Cabo Rojo Lighthouse perched on dramatic cliffs overlooking the ocean, offering panoramic views of turquoise waters and nearby beaches.
