Located in the Horn of Africa, the little country of Djibouti has some dubious neighbors: Ethiopia, Somalia, and Eritrea by land and Yemen and Saudi Arabia by sea.

Hot Springs Hotels in Japan: Stay in a Japanese Ryokan

Ryokan offer more than just a place to stay for the night – they are a truly unique experience and provide a glimpse into traditional Japanese lifestyle and culture. Our ryokan stays were the most memorable experiences of our trip (maybe even top five of all our travels!) and I highly recommend spending a night or two in one while you’re in Japan. Luckily, these traditional Japanese inns can be found all over the country. And while they can be more expensive than chain hotels, it is possible to find budget-friendly ryokan as well.

Queenstown, New Zealand is one of the most perfect small, touristy towns. You can’t help but catch that adventure vibe. While others might be jumping off bridges and skydiving, if you’re not as daring, I recommend the Luge at Skyline Queenstown.

Where to Eat in the Faroe Islands | The Faroe Islands’ Best Meals

While Drew and I were in the Faroe Islands, we met Ólavur, a retired school teacher, who invited us to join him for a tour of some of Faroe’s fjords on his fishing boat. After about an hour on the water, he surprised us with a dinner on a 100-year-old sailboat with his best friends. Ólavur’s friend Dorias was a wonderful chef and plate after plate appeared with beautifully prepared carrots and potatoes, brown gravy, cranberry sauce, currant jam, and the main course—oven-roasted pilot whale steak stuffed with bacon.
