A trip to Punta Cana is mostly about unwinding on its stunning beaches — but adding these beach clubs, restaurants, and excursions will elevate your adventure and boost your knowledge about this beautiful Caribbean destination. Whether you’re building your own itinerary or staying at an all-inclusive, you may want to try our favorite things we did on our last trip to Dominican Republic’s gorgeous Bavaro…
We recently stayed on Bavaro Beach in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic — which is one of the most gorgeous high-traffic vacation spots in the world. With direct flights from many cities — and its location less than 30-minutes from the airport — Bavaro Beach is an easy and ideal place to unwind without a lot of hassle getting there. But of course, all this comes…
We’ve spent a lot of time exploring the beaches of Mexico but have recently fell in love with the beautiful cities of the interior, too. The country’s capital is a bustling metropolis with seemingly endless neighborhoods and activities to add to your to-do list. So what should you explore if you only have one full day?

I’ve been in love with Cuban culture since my time in Miami when lived with a wonderful Cuban family during my first year of law school.

I always find it hard to fall asleep. As an insomniac, I know all about the bumps in the night. Sometimes they frighten me. But at the same time, the night has always inspired and energized me. I love the sounds of the night creatures. As a teenager, I loved the feel of the cold morning dew on my bare feet when I snuck back…
I was first introduced to Machu Picchu when I read the Celestine Prophecy nearly 20 years ago. From that point on, I wanted to visit Peru. It seemed inaccessible at the time, but that didn’t stop me from dreaming. I imagined hiking the Inca Trail and watching the sunrise over the historic site. I imagined feeling the energy of an ancient culture long since passed….
Our 13 course dinner tonight at Maido in Lima was one of the best meals of my life. The flavors were phenomenal and complex without being over the top. The service was top notch and the atmosphere was elegant, yet still comfortable and casual. This was a meal to remember. Amazing! 21-Aug-2017 Lima, Peru
