The French countryside has much to offer both local and international travellers in the way of culture, history and natural beauty. I’ve put together a list of 16 towns and villages that stand out for their unique features.

I recently ​took​​ ​an unforgettable 15-day trip to Morocco with my spouse and four of our closest friends. Our itinerary included Casablanca, Marrakech, Erg Chigaga, Taroudant, and Essaouira. The scenery was mind-blowing and the cities vibrant, but my highlight was how friendly and welcoming the locals were, everywhere we went.  

Due to its unique topography and its tropical climate, Costa Rica is a haven for wildlife. The country lies between the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea and has two mountain ranges that run through nearly the entire length of the country.
