Results for America
Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937) was an American writer of science-fiction and cosmic horror, best known for creating the popular Cthulhu Mythos. As we stroll through the streets of his beloved Providence, we'll explore the places that shaped his visions and dreams. It features photos and information from my two HPL-inspired trips to Providence -and a few items from different sources, with attribution where possible.
Most of the suggested spots are within walking distance of each other and can be covered on foot in one day. A few ones (eg. the Observatory and the Swan Point cemetery) require transportation.

Ajijic is a small slice of heaven along the coast of Lago Chapala, Mexico's largest fresh water lake. It is where several retirees from Europe and North America flock to, and for good reason. However, while there is a quite large retired expat community, there still remains a vibrant local culture.
In this guide, you'll get info on where to eat, and what to do both inside Ajijic and the surrounding area.

If you’re looking for what to do in Death Valley National Park with kids (or without!), you’re in the right place. This guide will help you decide what to see in Death Valley and what to do in Death Valley with kids.
⭐️ This park is home to the lowest point in the United States and holds the World Record for the hottest place on Earth.🥵
⭐️ Here you will find majestic sand dunes with Mountain backdrops, salt flats that make it seem like a snowy paradise, rocks that move by themselves (or do they?), the most well-preserved charcoal kilns in North America, giant volcanic craters, and Mars-like terrain everywhere you look.
⭐️ The Park was designated a National Park in October 1994, but the fight to protect this land started long before that. Death Valley National Park is visited by approximately 1 million people annually and is the largest National Park in the lower 48 with over 3 million acres of and.
🤓 Whether you are traveling with kids or without, you’ll fall in love with this unique National Park.
Every visitor to Death Valley National Park should make a stop at the Furnace Creek Canyon Visitor center to get a park map, get a weather update, info about the park’s road conditions and possible closures.
Park Rangers are also a wonderful resource for finding out the parks more off the beaten path spots.
☀️ Summertime is Death Valley’s busiest and hottest season.☀️
I believe the best time to visit Death Valley National Park is in the late fall, winter, or early spring. The crowds are much thinner and the weather is much cooler.
🚘How far is Death Valley National Park from Las Vegas? 2 hours, 15 minutes
🚘Los Angeles to Death Valley National Park is 4 hours, 20 minutes
🚘Zion National Park to Death Valley National park is 4 hour, 50 minutes

There are secret islands in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean. Nine of them, actually. The Azores are an autonomous region of Portugal, even though they're nearly 900 miles off the coast of Lisbon. Mount Pico, on the island of Pico, is actually the highest point in the European country. The volcanic archipelago is covered with farmland. Small fishing communities line the coasts. Travelers were first introduced to the remote islands when they became a refueling stop for flights between Europe and North America. Direct flights from Boston and New York eventually followed.
The Azores are finally being discovered by North Americans without Portuguese heritage. It's about time. Ponta Delgada, the little capital, mixes historic buildings with modern hotels and restaurants. São Miguel, the main island, is full of hiking trails and hot springs. Pico Island is famous for its wine. While seven other islands are just waiting to be explored. With mild climate, thanks to the jet stream, the Azores are a year-round destination. Go before the secret gets out.
This detailed guide includes:
Places: islands, cities, neighborhoods, towns, hidden villages
Stay: hotels
Eat: bakeries, coffee shops, ice cream stands, pizzerias, restaurants, teahouses
Drink: beach bars, rooftop bars, tapas bars, wineries
Do: abandoned hotels, aqueducts, bamboo groves, beaches, botanical gardens, bridges, chapels, churches, fountains, fumaroles, gardens, gates, hikes, lakes, marinas, mountains, natural swimming pools, nature preserves, public parks, roads, sculptures, squares, statues, tourist offices, UNESCO World Heritage Sites, viewpoints, windmills

The best markets in Australia: Great food, souvenirs and much more!
We do love a good local market! Being 'in town' on the right day to catch market day is crucial - sometimes they're daily (or nightly!), some are on Saturdays or Sundays, and some are only on every second weekend or so. So do plan ahead - and don't miss out! We love wandering around and checking out the local products and wares - especially the food!!
We're pretty biased and think Salamanca Market in Lutruwita/Tasmania is the best market in the world! Yesssss we know Barcelona's La Rambla Market is pretty darn impressive and we've been to some epic markets in Asia and South America too, but Nipaluna/Hobart packs well above its weight with an amazing local arts, craft and artisan scene, very talented buskers and of course the food is amazing! You can also pick up great handmade souvenirs as well as locally grown fruit, veg and other produce.
Australia's markets are not to be missed. Wander through the stalls and rub shoulders with locals and tourists alike. And, of course, in Australia markets are safe (no pick pockets!), are generally accessible (check the website links below for more!) and many are committed to sustainability with biodegradable, recycled or reusable packaging and no single-use plastics in sight.
Feel good by supporting local businesses and artists. And if you do feel the need to buy souvenirs - check the labelling and make sure you are buying locally made products whenever you can.
OK now we're craving a papaya salad at sunset at Mindil Market in Darwin!!

A guide to eating your way across the iron curtain. South Brooklyn is often overlooked and tourism beyond the Dyker Heights Christmas lights and Coney Island's Luna Park is rarely talked about. This is a guided tour with full access to authentic experiences full of delicious cuisine, dancing and entertainment.
It will feel like you have traveled to Russia, Armenia, Georgia, Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Tajikistan or Uzbekistan in one concentrated area of the city, situated by the ocean.
After moving out of New York I realized that South Brooklyn is NOT America. This little part of the world is the only area that gives you access to true Eastern European and Mediterranean culture, tradition and cuisine with the ability to experience it all authentically without a passport.
Here is a guide to the hidden gems of South Brooklyn. A list of cafes, ocean view restaurants and where to celebrate life and special occasions if you want to dance the night away with live music and great food.

During a three month trip exploring Central America, I spent a glorious chunk in the beautiful yet incredibly underrated Nicaragua. This guide highlights all the best bits of this beautiful country's culture; its attractions, cuisine, history and people.
The itinerary covers a number of locations and therefore recommend allocating at least 10-14 days to enjoy at leisure. If you have less to work with, then obviously feel free to tailor as it suits.
