      <image:caption>Left: Crossing the river to our peaceful lodge—the perfect entry point into Bhutan’s tranquility: Bhutan’s pristine environment is protected by law, making every path feel like a journey into a secluded paradise. Many roads and paths follow the winding rivers, connecting remote valleys. Even the walk to our accommodation felt like an adventure, often involving crossing traditional wooden bridges over crystal-clear, glacier-fed water. It’s a constant reminder of how life here is interwoven with nature. Right: The incredible geometry of the rice paddies, managed by local farmers: Bhutan’s landscape is vertically diverse, with elevations ranging from 500 feet to over 24,000 feet. This dramatic shift allows for everything from subtropical jungles to high alpine pastures, contributing to its incredible biodiversity. The rice paddies we walked through are a testament to how the Bhutanese master this rugged terrain for sustainable farming, which is vital for rural population retention.</image:caption>

Right: Inside the traditional art school, where the thirteen arts and crafts are preserved: Our visit to the Choki Traditional Art School was a highlight, showcasing the country’s commitment to preserving the Zorig Chusum (Thirteen Arts and Crafts). These schools offer free education, not just to pass on skills like painting, sculpting, and wood carving, but also to instill discipline and cultural identity. It's a key strategy in the government's approach to empower youth and keep them connected to their rich heritage, providing fulfilling employment opportunities at home.</image:caption>

This focus on archiving and preserving the past is a core tenet of GNH. In terms of future development, Bhutan is also embracing technology, including plans to leverage blockchain technology to secure its National Digital Identity (NDI) system, demonstrating a unique balance between tradition and high-tech progress.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>One of my favorite activities was taking a cooking class to make Momos (delicious, traditional dumplings). Food is central to Bhutanese hospitality, and everything is prepared with pride using ingredients sourced from local farms. Food Fact: While chilies are the most famous ingredient (Ema Datshi is the national dish), the Momos were a perfect, savory counterpoint. This focus on locally grown food not only ensures good health but also directly engages the population in sustainable practices, minimizing the reliance on imports. Market Fact: The government ensures a wide variety of seasonal produce is available, promoting healthy eating and self-sufficiency. This supports the well-being and environmental pillars of GNH, demonstrating how policy connects directly to daily life.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Strasbourg proudly holds the title of the "Capital of Christmas" (Capitale de Noël), and for good reason! Its Christmas market, one of the oldest and largest in Europe, dates back to 1570. Spread across various squares, most notably around the magnificent Strasbourg Cathedral, you'll find hundreds of stalls brimming with Alsatian crafts, delicious regional specialties like bredele (Christmas biscuits), and, of course, plenty of French flair.

Enjoy leisurely swims, quiet taverna meals, and unhurried exploration of charming villages.

      <image:caption>Slovenia (Beyond Lake Bled): Explore the Julian Alps at a slower pace with hut-to-hut hiking, discover the charming medieval towns like Škofja Loka, or relax by the tranquil Soča River.   The Azores, Portugal: These volcanic islands offer stunning natural beauty, from lush green landscapes to dramatic coastlines, perfect for hiking, whale watching, and enjoying a slower, more authentic island experience.   The Cyclades (Smaller Islands), Greece: As mentioned before, but worth reiterating, the smaller Cycladic islands offer a more authentic and less crowded Greek experience. The Dalmatian Coast (Smaller Towns &amp; Islands), Croatia: While Dubrovnik and Split can be busy, explore smaller coastal towns like Korčula or Hvar's less crowded areas, or hop between the quieter islands for a more relaxed Adriatic experience.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Naturally Cool Climate: The UP's location, surrounded by the vast waters of Lake Superior, keeps temperatures significantly cooler than much of the Midwest. Expect comfortable daytime highs and refreshingly cool evenings, perfect for sleeping. Abundant Natural Beauty and Outdoor Activities: From the stunning Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and the Porcupine Mountains to countless waterfalls and pristine forests, the UP offers endless opportunities for hiking, kayaking, fishing, and exploring. The cool air makes these activities even more enjoyable. Fewer Crowds and Peaceful Atmosphere: Compared to popular summer destinations, the UP remains relatively uncrowded. This allows for a more relaxed and peaceful vacation, where you can truly connect with nature. Refreshing Lake Superior: Lake Superior, the largest of the Great Lakes, provides a natural air conditioner. The lake's cool waters create refreshing breezes and opportunities for swimming, boating, and enjoying stunning lakeside views. Unique Towns and Culture: Explore charming towns like Marquette, Munising, and Copper Harbor, each offering unique local culture, delicious food, and friendly hospitality. The UP has a distinct "Yooper" culture that is worth experiencing.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I am a travel curator. I am also your advocate. If something goes wrong — delays, cancellations, bad weather — I'm ready to get your trip back on track, and quickly. No need to stress about potential snafus. But I also make sure things go right. If you're celebrating something, or want to surprise a partner with a special experience, or arrange something out of the ordinary, I will make it happen. Peace of mind comes from knowing the details are taken care of.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The following hotels — all helmed by remarkable women — respect their locales and rich history. They maintain an elegant timelessness imbued with a refreshing modern twist. Everything feels right, and everything — from the wall colors to the antique furnishings to the light fixtures to the cutlery — have been hand selected. In other words, these women get it. When you visit their properties, you’ll see why.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Grand Hotel Tremezzo is a Lake Como icon. And its new sister property, Passalacqua, became one as soon as the formerly private villa opened as a hotel, in 2022. The magic you feel when staying at either gem is courtesy of Valentina De Santis, whose family has preserved a unique sense of Italianness on the storied lake. In a destination where Italian owners have become few and far between, Grand Hotel Tremezzo and Passalacqua are a breath of fresh air. Valentina works with Italian craftspeople to adorn her hotels with hand-crafted beauty. And many of the decor gems have been picked up at global markets and antique shops over the years. The result is an exceptionally chic — and exceptionally Italian — place to stay.

      <image:caption>At Lily of the Valley, in St. Tropez, guests are treated to a new kind of wellness. Lucie Weill, the hotel’s founder and owner, wanted to create a wellness destination that wasn't clinical and cold. Instead, taking care of one’s health is fun, nourishing and sustainable. There are several programs to choose from: weight loss, detox, sports and aging. If weight loss is your goal, meals are not devoid of indulgence — or wine. Dine on Provençal stew, foie gras, seasonal salads, poulet rôti and delectable desserts (Lucie loves the vegan chocolate avocado mousse) — all of which are hyper-seasonal and made with local produce, of course. Opt for at least one spa treatment, and don’t miss the facials, which feature products from the clean French beauty line Biologique Recherche.

      <image:caption>The ultra-stylish Mariella Avino is behind this Amalfi Coast hotel, also aptly referred to as the Pink Palace (its façade is a lovely blush pink). The decor is soft and feminine — gem tones, smooth lines, playful pops of color, fresh flowers — and there’s always something exciting going on. In 2023, the hotel partnered with Valentino for a beach-club takeover, complete with bright-red umbrellas and perhaps the best party favor ever: a pair of Valentino sunglasses. Savor hand-made meals prepared with the freshest local ingredients while you overlook the coastline (a cooking school is in the works). Relax by the rooftop pool with a glass of Prosecco. Indulge in a massage after enjoying the spa’s sauna and steam bath. Palazzo Avino is the perfect place to experience la dolce vita, and to do so in style.  Jetset Journeys Perks: $100 spa credit, complimentary daily spa access, breakfast daily, upgrade &amp; extended check-in/out whenever possible.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Dina De Luca knows what works. The Lowell, an elegant, sophisticated retreat on New York City’s Upper East Side is timeless and fresh, historic and modern. It preserves Manhattan's historic glamor — it was originally opened in 1927 — with a dose of modern elegance. Dina has achieved this distinctive combination with her keen eye for art and appreciation of beauty. A Cy Twombley painting mingles with 16th-century Italian prints and work from a young New York Academy of Art graduate. (Dina regularly attends auctions to source pieces for the hotel’s impressive art collection, and the art in each room is unique.) Bookshelves display gorgeous collections on topics ranging from fashion to travel to cars, boats and airplanes. It’s playful refinement, steps from Central Park.

      <image:caption>Blue Apple Beach, a sustainable beachfront stay (and certified B-Corp) in the ultra-colorful Cartagena, is the place to go for great vibes, great hospitality and great food. Portia Hart couldn't find a solid beach club in the Colombian town, so she founded one herself. Expect farm-to-table food, warm service (most of the staff are locals), live music and breezy cabañas, each named after a tropical fruit. Here is where you can truly relax and unwind. But on the weekends, don't miss the high-energy DJ sets.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The standout dish for me was the Blue Lobster with Pan Perduto and Broccoli. The lobster was so fresh and perfectly cooked.  For the finale, I ordered pan perduto—a Tuscan take on bread pudding—it was both refined and comforting. Every bite told a story of the region, a beautiful balance between tradition and innovation. What made the experience even more special was how personal the dining experience felt. The staff’s warmth and passion for Tuscan cuisine shone through in every detail, from their thoughtful wine recommendations to their stories about the ingredients sourced from their organic garden. Sitting there, sipping on a glass of Brunello di Montalcino from their estate’s vineyard, I couldn’t help but feel completely immersed in the magic of Tuscany. Dining at Campo del Drago wasn’t just a meal—it was an experience that captured the soul of Italy. Even now, when I think back to that evening, I can almost taste the flavors and feel the gentle breeze of that perfect Tuscan night.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Destination Guides - 15 Minutes to Paradise: A Curated Guide to Cap Cana - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>Cap Cana is home to some of the most prestigious addresses in the Caribbean. During my site inspections, two properties stood out for their distinct personalities: Eden Roc Cap Cana: As a Relais &amp; Châteaux property, this is the pinnacle of boutique luxury. Staying in one of their private pool villas offers a level of seclusion and "home-away-from-home" comfort that is perfect for couples or families seeking privacy. The St. Regis Cap Cana: The brand-new arrival to the area. It brings a sleek, modern, and high-glamour energy, complete with their world-renowned butler service.</image:caption>
