Well Read: My Top Books on Travel (Part 3)
Can you really write a roundup of travel books and not include Eat, Pray, Love? I think not. But my goal here was to introduce you to some lesser-known stories and perspectives, showing that even if you travel solo for a year, not everyone has the exact Liz Gilbert experience. The other
Ljubljana, Slovenia: Europe’s Under the Radar Gem
It’s rare in my travels that I’ve found places that appear
completely void of American tourists during high season, but Ljubljana,
Slovenia felt like my private undiscovered gem in Eastern Europe. What began as a last-minute solo weekend trip

Stunning Spanish-style plazas with a fraction of the tourists. Delicious tapas and sangria at a fraction of the price. A walkable city just minutes from the beach, providing all the art, culture, and entertainment one could want in a long weekend. Interested? We’ve made a

“religion” of choice. Regardless of the
rap it gets for hosting these faux-influencers, both basic and extra at the
same
Unforgettable South African Vineyards
Some of the most breathtaking parts of South Africa are the winelands that surround Cape Town. A quick drive from the city center, Constantia, Franschhoek, or Stellenbosch boast stunning views with world-class wine. Enjoy a French-style MCC, a crisp Sauvignon Blanc, or a native Pinotage
