Here are a few of our currently featured regions and themes:

Vietnam Fusing modernity and tradition in the heart of Southeast Asia.

Prosperous at last after decades of conflict, Vietnam is open for exploration. Seamlessly combining its own ancient traditions with French colonial influences, Vietnam’s cities are rapidly modernizing even as its lush villages feel untouched by the passage of time.

1. 

   Pho(tolicious)!

   Who knew that the best Pho in Vietnam would come from our own meager culinary abilities...with a little help of course.

2. 

   Hoi An

   Hoi An is located in central Vietnam on the Thu Bon river and close to the famous beaches of Danang. It escaped most of the destruction of war and retains lots of historic charm.

3. 

   Rowing in Halong Bay

   Vietnam's Halong Bay is a UNESCO World Heritage site characterized by beautiful islands. As I watched this determined old woman rowing across an open expanse of water as she has probably done many times, I was reminded of how rarely we travel long distances under our own power.

San Francisco Getting friendly in the city where the good life is taken seriously.

In San Francisco, America’s most lifestyle-obsessed city, the quirky and the chic are celebrated in equal measure. Home to stunning natural beauty, great food, and friendly people, the Bay Area is a place where almost anything goes. Just don’t call it “Frisco” or “San Fran.”

1. 

   Golden Gate Bridge

   The Golden Gate Bridge is a world-famous suspension bridge completed in 1937. It is part of US 101, and it connects the City of San Francisco to Marin County and the rest of the northern California coast.

2. 

   Dolores Park

   Dolores Park is named for the nearby Mission Dolores and is a common hangout for San Franciscans on a sunny day.

3. 

   Walking, Driving, Eating, Drinking & Touring Through Sonoma

   “I love Napa; I used to work there. You can spend three days in Napa and a lifetime in Sonoma.”

Weird Tours Odd or unusual journeys that reveal something different about a place.

While most tourists trudge to the usual museums, churches, and historic sites, other travelers seek out tours that are unusual or out-of-the-way. Obsessive collections of junk? Factory tours? Tours of underground tunnels? Abandoned ruins? Crime scenes? Weird tours provide a unique perspective on oddball places that don’t usually qualify as “tourist attractions.”

1. 

   Walking in a Corporate Wonderland

   Big wealthy corporations? Booo. Guided tours of corporate headquarters, including swanky gift shops and lots of free samples? Yay! So it goes on a day spent in Downtown Atlanta, Georgia.

2. 

   Cell Block - Eastern State Penitentiary

   This cell block is not yet open to the public. The only view was from the main rotunda.

3. 

   Up, Up, Up...

   Inside the Golden Gate Bridge: At the bottom of an access shaft, looking up into the darkness... This ladder goes all the way to the top. Fortunately, there's an elevator that makes the ascent safer, easier, and much, much faster.
