Being able to travel the world is a great privilege and an opportunity that remains inaccessible to a significant proportion of the world’s population. Many people’s attempts to travel are curtailed by financial, social, political, and sometimes even physical barriers: having the ability to move across the globe with little resistance ought never to be taken for granted.
In 2025, the nationwide nursing shortage exceeded 200,000 registered nurses. This figure puts into question the U.S. medicine's ability to provide high-quality, timely, and accessible care. The reasons for the growing gap between the nursing workforce needed and available nursing staff are diverse, ranging from demographic to systemic factors.

What would the City of Light be without the poetry of its bridges? Arcing across the Seine like stone verses in a love letter to the past, the bridges of Paris offer more than a way to cross from Left Bank to Right.

School’s out for summer! In the northern hemisphere, it’s the height of the sunshine season. Picture ice cream dripping down happy toddler faces, blue tongues from the best ice pops around, running through sprinklers, lake life and beach days, unstructured playtimes, and firefly chasing.
Hi, I’m Kelly – founder and editor of International Teaching Families, official “trailing spouse,” and mum of three. I grew up in Australia and caught the travel bug early after moving to the UK in my 20s. That’s where I met my husband (a fellow Aussie and travel enthusiast), before we returned home to get married, buy a house, and have a few kids... But we quickly realised the traditional path wasn’t for us.
After the whole world had to spend a couple of years at home, in lockdown, travel and tourism returned with renewed vigour, as many of us sought to catch up on what felt like lost time.
Unfortunately, a surge in visitor numbers is putting tremendous pressure on many of the destinations that we know and love so dearly.
