Nelson
Nelson sits along the West Arm of Kootenay Lake in southeastern British Columbia, embraced by the rugged peaks of the Selkirk Mountains and threaded with over 350 heritage buildings that tell the story of its silver-rush beginnings. A short trip outside town leads to spots like the Salmo–Troup Rail Trail, a wide, gentle path that follows an old rail line for kilometers through forest and alongside rivers.
St. Helena
St. Helena is a remote island in the South Atlantic Ocean, known for its dramatic cliffs, volcanic landscapes, and rich history. It is most famous as the place where Napoleon Bonaparte spent his final years in exile, and visitors can explore Longwood House and other historic sites that tell the story of this period.
Seattle
Seattle is a city shaped by water, mountains, and innovation. Its skyline, dominated by the Space Needle, tells only part of the story. Beneath it lies a vibrant mix of neighborhoods, each with its own character. Seattle was the birthplace of grunge music and remains a stronghold for independent arts. The Museum of Pop Culture (MoPOP), located at the Seattle Center, celebrates the city’s creative spirit with exhibits on everything from Nirvana and Jimi Hendrix to science fiction and gaming.
Cap Malheureux
Cap Malheureux is a small coastal village at the northern tip of Mauritius, facing the islands and open waters beyond Grand Baie. It is best known for Notre-Dame Auxiliatrice, a Catholic chapel with a bright red roof that stands beside the shoreline and has become one of northern Mauritius’s most recognizable landmarks.
Sault Sainte Marie
On the Canadian border where Lake Huron and Lake Superior meet, a canal built in 1895 still is used to have boats bypass the rapids of the St. Mary's river.
