One of the most adventurous dives of my life is hands down the Beqa shark dive in Fiji, where you scuba dive with several species of sharks — all without a cage.

Well, I’ve done it; I’ve found the most beautiful place in all of the Caribbean. No, not one of the St.’s where the paparazzi are always snapping photos of celebrities. Nor the Bahamas where Instagrammers snap pics of themselves with swimming pigs or swarming nurse sharks Nor even Richard Branson’s private island (think my invite … Read more
Amongst its impressive collection of hikes, the Lavena Coastal Walk stands up to the test as one of the best hikes in Taveuni to explore the island’s lush, jungly side and truly understand why it’s nicknamed “The Garden Island” of Fiji.

A scorching hot, volcanic landscape in the middle of the ocean doesn’t seem like the most hospital landscape for winemaking — and it’s not — yet somehow, Lanzarote winemaking perseveres and endures. The fury of past volcanic eruptions have cooled, creating a unique mineral-rich volcanic landscape that gives all its wines a unique terroir, distinct … Read more
With every curve in the road, driving Provence offers a panorama of scenic views in a rainbow of colors. From the deep purple of lavender fields to the canary yellow of summer sunflowers to the turquoise waters of its lakes and rivers, Provence is full of natural and man-made wonders. And traversing it by car … Read more
Barcelona is a lively city with so many incredible sides to it, but if you have extra time, I strongly suggest getting out of the city and exploring a bit more of the Catalonian surroundings. Whether that’s taking a day trip to lovely Girona or Besalú or exploring the mountainous area of Montserrat and its … Read more
