Bangalore

Once a sleepy regional capital, Bangalore today is a modern metropolis that will come as a big surprise to those visiting for the first time. Also known as Bengaluru, the capital of Karnataka, is the technological hub of India and the very place where the country’s new, confident global identity is being forged. Although the city might somewhat lack historical sites, its buzzing and liberal atmosphere provides the perfect base for exploring the beautiful temples and palaces of the Deccan.

Tivat

Tivat feels like a town that’s caught in between—between old fishing days and shiny new marinas, between quiet corners and glamorous yachts. It’s small, but the kind of place that makes you want to stick around. Wander the cobbled streets, grab a coffee by the water, and you’ll get a sense of its easy-going rhythm. The Bay of Kotor stretches out before you, and while Tivat has its share of sleek, modern spots, there’s a certain charm in the old stone buildings and the salty breeze that still gives the place its soul.

Baltimore, Maryland

Perched along the Chesapeake Bay, Baltimore has been a vital port city since the 1600s, historically serving as the second most popular immigration gateway after Ellis Island. Just 35 miles northeast of Washington, D.C. and 75 miles southwest of Philadelphia, the city’s waterfront continues to define its character, blending history with modern cultural energy. A hub of innovation, arts, and diverse cuisine, Baltimore offers something for every traveler.

Funchal, Madeira

The 6th largest city of Portugal, known for its wine and amazing weather, Funchal is more than just the hometown of Cristiano Ronaldo. The city is filled with historical buildings, fantastic cuisine and surrounded by the truly spectacular nature of the Madeira archipelago. Make sure to taste the famous Madeira wine and pastel de nata.

Fort Myers

Chosen as a winter refuge by Thomas Edison at the turn of the last century, Fort Myers sits away from busier and more opulent Florida centers, maintaining the carefree, low-key atmosphere of a sea town.

The area's natural beauty continues inland, where protected animal species take shelter among mangroves and narrow bayou bends.
