Travel is amazing for a plethora of reasons: to learn about others, to increase your intercultural awareness, to eat great food, and to experience new ways of being in the world, to name a few.

Imagine opening a book so filled with peace that you long to jump in and revel in it.

One thing that often turns many people off of booking a cruise is the idea that cruise ships are inherently large, impersonal environments full of crowds, constant activity and noise.

If you’ve always wanted to go on safari to Africa, you’ve probably been dreaming of it for ages. But there’s an expanded version of the safari, called an overland tour. This is really something interesting, intriguing, and well worth experiencing.

When you’re all set to jet off to sunnier shores or even travelling for business purposes, no one likes to hear the words that their flight has been delayed, right?

From technical issues to extreme weather conditions causing havoc in the air, flights can be delayed or cancelled with little notice.
