Davos, located in the Swiss canton of Graubünden, is the highest town in Europe at 1,560 meters above sea level and known for its alpine sports and outdoor activities. In winter, it offers over 300 kilometers of ski slopes shared with neighboring Klosters, along with cross-country trails and Europe’s largest natural ice rink. In summer, the same mountains transform into hiking and mountain biking routes, including the panoramic Jakobshorn and Parsenn areas.

Sirmione, a picturesque town on the southern shore of Lake Garda, Italy, offers a unique blend of natural beauty and historical intrigue.

Tongatapu, the main island of Tonga, is where tradition, history, and the South Pacific’s natural world intersect in quiet and unexpected ways.

Mamora Bay, tucked into Antigua’s southern coastline, is a serene crescent-shaped bay framed by gentle hills and swaying palms. Known for its calm, sheltered waters, the bay offers a tranquil setting that contrasts with the island’s more rugged Atlantic side.

Pokhara, nestled in central Nepal, sits at the base of the Annapurna mountain range and has long served as both a rest stop for trekkers and a destination in its own right. What sets Pokhara apart is the rare opportunity to see 8,000-meter peaks like Machapuchare (Fishtail) and Annapurna I reflected in the calm waters of Phewa Lake. Early mornings are often the clearest, with boat rides offering peaceful views of snow-capped peaks mirrored in the lake.
