Cape Town South Africa - An Accessible Place to Stay

When it comes to great views, excellent service, and top-notch amenities, I highly recommend the Taj Hotel, Cape Town. It’s quite affordable and offers some of the best views of Table Mountain as well as a convenient home base for all tourist attractions.

Cape L'Agulhas, South Africa

Cape L’Agulhas, South Africa is the real southernmost point of Africa, the point where the Indian and Atlantic Oceans meet. It’s a truly magical experience looking off the southernmost tip of the African continent knowing the next land one would encounter is Antarctica. (The only continent I have left to visit.) Many tourists see The Cape of Good Hope (which you should also definitely see) but not many make the almost three-hour drive through beautiful countryside to Cape L’Agulhas.

4 Days in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua

Seven years ago this summer I discovered glamping. I also discovered the most comfortable, high-quality hammocks in the world. This was ideal for someone like me, whose second favorite pastime is napping. I also developed a taste for Toña beer and a love for volcanoes. I practiced my incredibly rusty Spanish with my tour guide, Elvis, while drinking a beer in the back of a seatbeltless Jeep. I took a motorboat across a shark-filled lake to look at an island filled with monkeys. I fell in love with Nicaragua.
