San Jose, California

San Jose is California’s third largest city and the tenth largest city in the United States. Deemed a “global city,” San Jose is the Mecca of Silicon Valley: high-technology and electronics industries have brought significant tourism and attractions to the city. The city also boasts a great proximity to all of Northern California’s areas of interest due to its position in the greater Santa Clara Valley. Over 300 days of sunshine and the kingdom-like panorama of the Santa Clara Mountains make San Jose a beautiful urban retreat.

Surabaya

Founded nearly eight centuries ago, Indonesia’s second-largest city has seen empires come and go. The founders of the Hindu Majapahit Empire arrived in the late 13th century and remained until the 17th, to be followed by Muslim rulers of Mataram, then the colonialists of the Dutch East India Company. In recent decades, Surabaya has grown into a cosmopolitan seaport and conurbation where 21st-century hotels, apartment towers, and shopping malls stand next to historic mosques and palaces.

Mishawaka, Indiana

Mishawaka is situated in the Michiana area, which encompasses counties in northern Indiana and southern Michigan, and it forms part of the South Bend metropolitan area. Named after a legendary Shawnee Indian princess, the city takes pride in its history and legacy. Nonetheless, Mishawaka is also evolving with the changing times, and the convergence of classic and modern is evident in its architecture, industry, and culinary offerings.

Baghdad

Baghdad remains a vibrant and colourful city despite recent hardships. The locals have steadfastly resisted the conflicts and violence, striving to keep their beloved city bustling with life, courage, personality and optimism. However, it is important to acknowledge that risks and dangers persist, and most world governments currently advise against leisure travel to the city.

Le Cap d'Agde Méditerranée, France

Autumn and winter colours

Malta

Nestled between Sicily and North Africa, Malta is an enchanting island nation that offers a unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. Beyond its historical wonders, which include ancient temples and medieval fortresses, Malta boasts stunning coastlines, crystal-clear waters, and picturesque beaches, which combined with nearly uninterrupted sunshine year-round and some of the mildest temperatures worldwide, make the island a delightful escape for travellers in any season.

Banjul

The low-rise Gambian capital might not be as advanced of a visitor hub as one would, perhaps, expect from a city of such national significance, but it certainly boasts some raw appeal contained within its pulsating and often rather hectic streets. Beyond Banjul proper lies the sprawling Serekunda — Gambia's most populous area — and the vacationer-favoured coastal settlements of Kololi, Bakau, Koto and Fajara.

Jakarta

Indonesia’s sprawling capital is one of Southeast Asia's fastest-growing, most chaotic, and exciting places. It is the gateway to a vast, vibrant, and varied island nation home to dozens of fascinating cultures. Formerly the colonial capital of the Dutch East Indies, when it was known as Batavia, Jakarta has grown from its original seaport district into a huge modern conurbation of high-rise hotels and apartments, thronged shopping malls, and wide, crowded avenues.
