This 1.5-hour experience takes place at CasaPlan—a collaborative workspace for artists living in the city of Valparaíso and the wider Fifth Region of Chile. Located in El Plan (the flat part of the city), CasaPlan features a printmaking workshop, two galleries dedicated to contemporary Chilean art, and a cafe. Hosted by one of CasaPlan's resident mixed-media artists, Marcela Rodriguez, you will enjoy a private tour of the printmaking workshop, witness a lithography demonstration, and engage with creatives over their latest projects. 

Traditionally using limestone slabs, lithography is a printing technique that works on the immiscibility of oil and water. Marcela will also accompany you to the two visual art shows—explaining the concept behind each installation. In the instance that one of the artists exhibited is available in the workshop, Marcela will facilitate a cultural exchange with them. The experience includes coffee/tea and a slice of cake in the cafe and a print to take home.

CasaPlan is a cultural hub in Valparaíso that brings together art, food, education, and hospitality in a beautiful historic space. It was founded by the female artist Javiera Moreira and the architect Antonia Jarpa to serve as a printmaking workshop where established artists nurture emerging creatives through courses and residency programs. Being located on the periphery of Valparaíso's typical tourist trail means the venue retains a community vibe and is primarily visited by artists and local residents. 

Although cafe-goers glimpse the artists at work in the open-concept studio, Marcela's experience is the only means of interaction. As one one the few bilingual creatives, Marcela can facilitate conversations with the resident artists and lead a fascinating dialogue about Chile's modern art scene. Marcela will also escort you to the two art shows which often exhibit work by CasaPlan's resident artists. She will provide insightful commentary on the pieces, to be continued over coffee.

Marcela Rodriguez is a contemporary multi-media artist who grew up living in lighthouses with her lighthouse-keeper father along the rugged Southern Chilean coast. The vast Patagonian landscape and turbulent Pacific Ocean greatly influenced her. While in college, she discovered street theatre and performed with two important Santiago theatre troupes.

In 1992, Marcela moved to Minneapolis in the US and obtained a bachelor’s degree in Theatre Arts and an MFA in painting and drawing. In 2001, she moved back to Chile and developed a passion for printmaking, focusing on lithography. Her artwork has been exhibited in galleries throughout Chile, Mexico, Cuba, and the USA.

Marcela has completed two art residencies for printmakers, including a month-long one in Veracruz, Mexico, at La Ceiba Grafica in 2018 and with renowned artists from “Taller 99” in Santiago, 2019. She currently lives and works as a visual artist in Concon, Chile, and teaches at CasaPlan in Valparaíso.

Spain

This experience begins in Sacromonte, the hillside district where the cave-dwellings of Granada’s Roma community shaped a culture found nowhere else in Spain. With Gabriela, you walk through this historic neighborhood and visit the Cave Museum, stepping inside reconstructed cave-homes that show how people lived, cooked, forged iron, wove baskets.

From the terraces, you see an iconic golden view of the Alhambra. Gabriela shares stories about the origins of the Roma community here, their role in Granada’s culture, and how Sacromonte became the cradle of the zambra, a flamenco style born in these caves.

The evening continues in the city center with an intimate flamenco show performed in a small tablao, where the focus is on artistry. Here, you witness the expressive singing, guitar and dance that define Granada’s identity. After the show, enjoy a drink and tapas.This experience blends history, community, and performance into a single evening that reflects the true spirit of Granada.

Sacromonte was the birthplace of the zambra — flamenco was shaped inside the caves you’ll walk through. Few visitors understand the neighborhood’s cultural weight: how Roma families kept traditions, how weddings gave rise to the barefoot dance of the zambra, or how the cave acoustics influenced the music.

In the Museum, you see spaces that recreate daily life: loom rooms, forges, kitchens, animal shelters. This gives you context most flamenco tours never include. From the hill’s terraces, you see the Alhambra from a beloved viewpoint.

The flamenco show is chosen carefully by Gabriela: intimate (no more than 20 people), authentic, performed by professional artists who treat each night as a personal expression, not a zambra cave show popularized by tourism. When possible, you may meet performers after the show — a chance to ask questions, feel the compás, or understand how music is passed down from generation to generation. You may even try the palmas (clapping) or a simple dance step.

Gabriela’s aim is to help guests feel the soul of the city through stories, local connection, and an unhurried way of moving. Evenings with her unfold like exploring with a trusted local who knows the paths, the people, and the small moments that make Granada unforgettable.

Mexico

Join Lydia on a three-hour walking street food tour of Narvarte and Del Valle, residential neighborhoods in Mexico City that are rarely included on tourist routes yet offer some of the city’s best street food.

Deep-fried pork carnitas, tacos al pastor shaved straight from the spit, battered and fried poblano peppers — these are some of the iconic dishes you’ll try, each reflecting distinct techniques, flavors, and regional traditions.

Street food in Mexico preserves culinary knowledge, supports local livelihoods, and remains central to daily life. It is where regional flavors stay alive and accessible.

Each stop is chosen for quality and character. You’ll end with a cold beer or a coffee, depending on your style, and a deeper understanding of how food and neighborhood life intersect in Mexico City. This exploration of flavors and textures also provides an excuse to see another side to the city and local life.

This experience takes you away from Mexico City’s tourist-focused food districts to see how street food functions in everyday neighborhood life. You’ll explore areas you’re unlikely to visit on your own. Narvarte is lively and residential, with a relaxed local rhythm and consistently good food. Del Valle is quieter and more spacious, known for its parks, wide streets, and family-oriented atmosphere.

You’ll learn about the city through the perspective of a long-time transplant who has spent years researching its food culture and eating at hundreds of street stands. She curates the walk around vendors who represent different styles, histories, and techniques, rather than chasing hype.

Each taco or dish reflects a distinct approach to Mexico City street food. You leave with a clearer sense of how the city eats, how its neighborhoods function, and how food connects daily life and place — along with a full stomach.

France

Revolutionary ideals aren’t always what they seem. The 1789 French Revolution is marked by two competing narratives: the Enlightenment humanism that led to “liberty, equality, fraternity,” and the populist rhetoric that culminated in the Reign of Terror.

Whether referring to 1789, the 1871 Paris Commune, or the May 1968 student revolutions, this experience is a walk through Paris’ rich history of revolutionary ideas that continue to shape debates about democracy today.

Led by a novelist and expert in modern European history, this journey unfolds as a dialogue about the ideas, stories, and events that sparked France’s major revolutionary moments, with particular focus on 1789, 1871, and May 1968.

The walk concludes in the Latin Quarter, where the conversation continues over a drink, allowing time to reflect on history, philosophy, and the revolutionary ideas that still unsettle authoritarian regimes today.

This experience is shaped by Samuél Lopez-Barrantes’s way of reading history as a living, contested process rather than a closed chapter. A novelist and publisher with an MA in social theory and an MFA focused on the invention of historical narrative, he approaches the French Revolution through the ideas that emerged from it and the legacies of figures such as Rousseau, Voltaire, Louise Michel, and Guy Debord.

With a focus on the modern intellectual history of Paris and the narratives that shape how the Revolution is remembered, this experience challenges common understandings of the “French Revolution” in a nation that has experienced multiple revolutions since 1789.

Samuél's approach invites participants to consider how the storming of the Bastille and the Declaration of the Rights of Man also led to the Terror and Napoleon Bonaparte’s colonial regime, and how three 19th-century revolutions helped inspire Situationism and May 1968.

Walking Tour in Paris exploring French revolutionary history from 1789, the Commune, to May 1968.

Paris, Rethinking Revolution

Private, historical walking tour in Paris focused on the French Revolution and later revolutionary movements.

Full guidance by a novelist and expert in European history.

Contextual exploration of key revolutionary sites and ideas from 1789 onward.

One drink of choice, including soft drinks, coffee, half-pints, or a glass of wine.

One-page summary of key dates and revolutionary ideas.

A notebook for curious note-takers.

Umbrella or rain jacket during the rainy season.

You’ll meet Samuél at the Colonne de Juillet, the large column in the center of Place de la Bastille.

Samuél has lived in Paris since 2010 as a novelist, musician, and literary tour guide. He holds an MA in social theory and an MFA in creative writing. He is a member of an indie rock band and the co-founder of an independent anglophone publisher in Paris.

He taught creative writing at the Sorbonne for five years before focusing on writing and leading historical walks on modernism, existentialism, and the Nazi Occupation of Paris. His first novel, Slim and the Beast, shares its name with his band, which has played extensively across Europe. His second novel, The Requisitions, is a work of historical metafiction set in Nazi-occupied Poland.

Samuél is also fiction editor at SOUVENIR Magazine, an anglophone arts and literature magazine based in Paris.

You are invited into a private house in charming San Miguel Chapultepec, where the rooms reveals facets of Mexico’s textile traditions, conceived as lived context. This visit traces materials and fibers — cotton, wool, ixtle — alongside weaving techniques that predate the Spanish conquest and continue today, including the backstrap loom still used in weaving communities across Mexico. You explore natural dyes such as cochineal and indigo, along with regional patterns and histories.

With your hosts at Onora, you examine how motifs, colors, and structures communicate community identity across Mexico — signaling origin, status, and cosmology. Textiles move beyond decoration into language and symbol — present in ceremonial dress, domestic life, and intergenerational knowledge. Some pieces require months of hand-weaving, their complexity visible only through close observation. The house becomes a setting in which contemporary design and ancestral weaving practices are placed in dialogue.

This is a curated visit that invites you to appreciate Mexican textiles and materials, and understand how they function within today’s lived environments. Lorena and her colleagues work in long-term, horizontal partnerships with a network of more than 725 artisans from 183 communities across 28 Mexican states — relationships built on respect, transparency and shared creativity. These collaborators are involved in design conversations and credited for their work — an approach that reframes craft as shared authorship rather than anonymous tradition.

Rather than presenting textiles as aesthetic objects alone, the experience situates them within worldview and practice. Each piece is discussed in relation to the region that produced it — the dyes, fibers, techniques, and cultural meanings embedded in its structure. An artisanal drink and snack are offered during the visit, extending the hospitality of the house and reinforcing its character as a lived, working space rather than a showroom.

Meet Lorena and her colleagues at ONORA Casa in San Miguel Chapultepec. The exact location will be shared with you upon booking.

Lorena de la Piedra studied sociology and textile art and is a weaver herself, but what really defines her work is time spent alongside artisans. Since 2013, she has been working directly with makers, learning through shared processes, conversations, and everyday practice. After living in Oaxaca for eight years and working at the Textile Museum of Oaxaca, she developed a deep connection to the region’s textile traditions and the communities who sustain them.

She invites visitors to slow down, get their hands involved, and experience craft from the inside. Whether through textiles or ceramics, the focus is on learning directly from artisans – understanding materials, techniques, and the stories behind them. Each experience is designed as a space for exchange, curiosity, and meaningful connection. Her colleagues at Onora collaborate with artisans from across the country to create contemporary textiles and objects, using traditional techniques that reflect their cultural identity.

This 14-day Peloponnese road trip is designed for travelers who enjoy long scenic drives and the freedom of shaping each day on the road. It unfolds through constantly changing landscapes, from urban Athens to fortified coastlines, mountain interiors, remote peninsulas, and fertile wine country. Guided experiences anchor key moments, while the drive itself connects regions, histories, and atmospheres across southern Greece.
DAY 1 – ATHENS TO NAFPLIO | The journey begins in Athens with a guided exploration of the Acropolis, uncovering layers of history.

The afternoon is open for independent exploration along the waterfront or through the old town. With no driving today, the pace resets before longer distances ahead.
DAY 3 – EPIDAURUS FROM NAFPLIO | You travel inland on a guided day trip to Epidaurus, focusing on sacred landscapes and the connection between theater and healing in the ancient world. After lunch nearby, you return to Nafplio in the afternoon, balancing travel with depth.
DAY 4 – NAFPLIO TO SPARTA | Leaving the coast behind, you drive into the interior of the Peloponnese. Olive groves, mountain roads, and quiet villages shape the route toward Lakonia. Arrival in Sparta by early afternoon allows time to settle in after the transition.

DAY 7 – ELAFONISSOS | In the morning, you drive to the coast and take a short ferry to Elafonissos. The shift in scale is immediate, from fortified town to open shoreline. The day is left unstructured, shaped by water, light, and rest.
DAY 8 – MONEMVASIA TO AREOPOLI | One of the journey’s longest drives takes you north into the Mani Peninsula. Remote landscapes and stone-built settlements define the route, with a pause in Limeni before continuing inland to Areopoli.
DAY 9 – MANI COAST | Today is dedicated to driving along Mani's coastline. You follow the road toward Cape Tenaro, stopping at villages, chapels, and coves as the landscape opens to the sea. The day forms a loop, returning to Areopoli by evening.
DAY 10 – AREOPOLI TO KALAMATA | Leaving Mani behind, you drive west through olive groves and cultivated plains. The road widens as you approach Kalamata, where arrival around midday leaves time to explore the town or walk along the seafront.
DAY 11 – KALAMATA TO PYLOS | You continue along the Messinian coast, stopping at Koroni and Methoni to explore their seaside fortresses. By late afternoon, you reach Pylos, overlooking the calm waters of Navarino Bay.
DAY 12 – PYLOS TO OLYMPIA | The route turns inland again, trading coastline for rolling countryside. Arrival in Olympia around midday allows time to orient yourself before a quieter evening.
DAY 13 – OLYMPIA TO NEMEA | A scenic drive crosses Arcadia’s mountainous interior, with stops in Dimitsana and Stemnitsa revealing stone village life. By evening, vineyards replace mountain roads as you arrive in Nemea.
DAY 14 – NEMEA TO ATHENS | The day begins with a guided experience in Nemea, combining archaeology, wine, and a relaxed lunch. In the afternoon, you drive back to Athens, closing the loop of the road trip. The final evening unfolds in Piraeus through a guided exploration of music, memory, and port-city life.

Salt, Song and Time in Cádiz

3-day itinerary in Cádiz blending Moorish history, flamenco traditions, sherry, sea-slowed meals.

This Milan itinerary is sleek, elegant, and curated — the perfect expression of Milanese sophistication across architecture, design, fashion, and food. It’s about Milan as it’s truly lived: designed, composed, and always in conversation with its past and future.

Milan is precision with personality—a city where modern lines meet Renaissance texture, and where fashion, architecture, and food are expressions of the same pursuit: style with substance. This three-day itinerary moves through that balance with intent, beginning in the geometry and vision of Gio Ponti’s architectural legacy. From the Pirelli Tower to lesser-known gems, the morning reveals how Milan’s skyline was shaped not just by ambition, but by design thinking.

The afternoon shifts to the Navigli District—Leonardo da Vinci’s hand in its canals, but today, the flow belongs to artists, gallery owners, and baristas. You’ll wander cobbled paths, stop for an aperitivo, and settle into a slow dinner at Osteria Conchetta, where Milanese cuisine is served without pretense but full of detail.

Day two leaves the city for the lakes. A curated visit to Lake Como weaves together water, stone, and stillness. At Villa del Balbianello and through the towns of Como and Bellagio, nature is never separate from design—it’s framed by it. This isn’t just sightseeing; it’s about atmosphere. Scale, silence, villas on cliffs. Beauty at rest.

On your final day, the focus returns to Milan with a walk through Brera. Here, art meets appetite—small galleries, curated boutiques, and a lunch scene that respects tradition while playing with it. The afternoon brings you to Castello Sforzesco and its layered museums, followed by a pause in Sempione Park—green space as counterbalance. And finally: dinner at Tartufotto, where truffle meets elegance in the heart of the city.

With a thoughtful mix of guided encounters and unhurried moments, it is designed for travelers who value creativity, connection, and depth.
DAY 1 – STREET ART AND CERAMICS | The day begins with a guided street art walk that weaves together mural stories, cultural memory, and local tastings. From bold facades to vibrant flavors, you explore the city’s history through both image and palate. In the afternoon, take time to rest or explore the viewpoints of Cerro Alegre before heading to Concón. There, a ceramic workshop invites you to create your own lucky clay pig in a bright studio facing the coast. After the session, stay for a seafood dinner by the ocean and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of this quiet beach town.
DAY 2 – COOKING AND CITY SPACES | Spend the morning in the kitchen of a local chef learning traditional South American recipes in an engaging cooking class. After the shared meal, continue the day with a guided architecture walk through ten public spaces shaped by Valparaíso’s unique topography and social rhythms. From plazas and staircases to hillside viewpoints, the tour brings the city’s built environment into focus through design, memory, and daily use. Together, the experiences offer an intimate look at how people live, gather, and create in this layered urban landscape.
DAY 3 – PHOTOS AND FLAVORS BY NIGHT | Start your final day with a photography walk in Playa Ancha led by a local artist.

Art to Coast in Valparaíso

3 days in Valparaíso blending street art, food, architecture, and coastal craft with local guides.

Fes moves at the pace of intention—through hands that craft, stories that endure, and streets that remember. This four-day itinerary is designed to experience the city not from a distance, but from within. It’s a journey built on conversation, tradition, and daily rituals that still carry meaning.

Your time begins in the calm of a riad, where a portrait session and henna ceremony introduce the elegance of Moroccan hospitality and dress. In the afternoon, a guided photo walk invites you into the medina’s light and movement—capturing not just images, but insight into how the city breathes.

On day two, you cook what you’ve sourced, learning to prepare classic dishes in the flow of the market. The flavors carry memory, the process carries lineage. Later, at Al-Attarine Madrasa, geometry and detail reveal the intellectual and artistic sophistication of Islamic Morocco.

The third day opens at the Nejjarine Museum, tracing the arc of wooden craftsmanship. Then comes a deeper look at Berber culture—through healing traditions, bread-making, and domestic arts practiced for generations. These aren’t performances—they’re living legacies, generously shared.

Your final day moves toward the future, exploring how traditional forms evolve in contemporary Fes. A visit to the Merenid Tombs offers a high, quiet view over the city, framing what you’ve just lived through: not a list of sites, but a rhythm of presence. You’ll close the experience over dinner in a restored historic house, where old beauty continues to welcome.

One Day in Valparaíso

Fernwayer’s perfect one day in Valparaíso blends street art, studios, and a hillside guided walk.

A city that moves through stories as much as streets, Buenos Aires invites travelers into its layered identity—through architecture, ritual, and rhythm. This three-day journey is designed for those who want more than a snapshot, weaving together curated experiences that unfold the city’s emotional and historical heart. From grand avenues and tango classes to quiet moments of mate and cultural evenings, each day offers a full immersion into the spirit of the Argentine capital.
DAY 1 – LANDMARKS AND FIRST STEPS | Begin with a guided city tour by car through Recoleta, San Telmo, and the Historic Quarter. Your host brings to life both the architecture and the lesser-known stories behind the plazas, statues, and neighborhoods that shaped the city. After a midday break, head to a tango studio for a class with a local dancer. Learn the basic steps, sip mate or wine, and connect to the emotional roots of this iconic movement.
DAY 2 – POLITICS, RITUAL, AND THEATER | Spend the morning on a walking tour exploring the city’s political legacy through Recoleta Cemetery, public monuments, and symbols of Peronism. In the afternoon, join a local host for a mate tasting session in her home, where you’ll prepare and share the traditional drink while learning its meaning in Argentine daily life. The day ends on Avenida Corrientes, where a cultural walk takes you through the city’s theater district, with bookstores, street food, and stories of the stage.
DAY 3 – FLAVOR AND EXPRESSION | A guided food tour leads you through the tastes of Palermo Soho, with stops for empanadas, choripán, asado, and sweet bites along the way. The experience weaves together local flavor and neighborhood energy, perfect for a slower-paced final day. In the early evening, step inside a historic tango house in San Telmo for a unique photography experience. Lights, shadows, and movement tell their own story as you enjoy a dinner immersed in the visual world of tango.
WHERE TO STAY IN BUENOS AIRES | Base yourself in Palermo Soho for stylish boutique hotels, creative energy, and easy access to the day’s starting points. Recoleta offers a quieter pace and tree-lined elegance, with cafés, architecture, and green spaces ideal for walking. Both neighborhoods work well for this itinerary, and each gives you a distinct view of the city’s rhythm.

Argentina

Icons to Stage in Buenos Aires

3 days in Buenos Aires with Argentina’s icons, mate rituals, tango nights, and local flavors.

Athens is a place where ancient history and everyday life meet at every corner. From marble ruins to modern murals, the city is layered with memory, myth, and movement. This three-day itinerary invites you to experience Athens not as a checklist of monuments, but as a living conversation between past and present. Through guided encounters, sensory discoveries, and sacred pauses, each day opens a different door to the city’s many lives.

DAY 1 – HISTORY IN GRAFFITI AND STONE | Begin in Kerameikos, Gazi, and Psyrri, where the streets pulse with creativity and protest. The Urban Canvas of Athens takes you through layers of mural, message, and meaning, ending with a hands-on workshop and a piece of your own to carry home. Then head to the National Museum of Contemporary Art to explore bold works that question the narratives of history. End the day at the Acropolis, but from a different angle: walking the lesser-seen paths of the hill that shaped the Western world. As the sun sets, dine at Point A with the Parthenon glowing above.

DAY 2 – MEALS, HILLS, AND MOONLIGHT | Start your morning at the Varvakeios Market for a cooking class with a Greek local, learning to craft gyros and taste your way through spices, olives, and cheese. After lunch, wander through the hidden village of Anafiotika and climb Filopappou Hill for sweeping views of the city. Let the evening unfold with Under the Athenian Sky, an open-air cinema experience filled with conversation, food, and the quiet glow of Athens by night.

DAY 3 – RITUALS AND REVERENCE | Your final day brings you into rhythm with something older. In Ilioupoli, Cultivating Gratitude offers a guided ritual rooted in Demeter’s myth, the harvest, and the practice of reflection. Later, pause in the shade of the National Garden and witness the changing of the guards at Syntagma Square. End in Piraeus with Rebetiko, Red Lights, and the echo of old sailor songs. Between bites and melodies, you’ll feel the weight of memory, celebration, and time.

This journey is not about rushing ruins. It’s a curated immersion, shaped by texture, taste, silence, and spark. You’ll leave Athens not just with photos, but with a piece of the city imprinted on your pace, your palate, and your way of seeing. Three days in Athens. One city. Countless echoes.

WHERE TO STAY IN ATHENS | When it comes to where to stay, Athens offers neighborhoods for every travel style. Plaka is charming and close to ancient sites, while Psyrri and Exarchia are full of life, street art, and cafés. For a quieter stay with Acropolis views, Koukaki is a great base. And if you’re looking for sea breeze and space, consider Piraeus for a local feel near the coast. Choose what fits your rhythm.

Athens in Three Acts

3 days in Athens exploring art, cuisine, the acropolis of Athens, Greek traditions, and rebetiko.

This road trip traces Iberia’s southern arc, where Moorish legacies, rural traditions, and Atlantic-facing cultures converge. Beginning in Seville and ending in Lisbon, the journey favors intimacy over spectacle, inland landscapes over coastlines, and continuity over contrast. Andalusia and Portugal are revealed not as opposites, but as neighboring expressions of shared histories shaped by craft, song, labor, and endurance. The pace is deliberate and gentle, inviting reflection, listening, and presence as places and people unfold.

DAY 1 – ARRIVAL IN SEVILLE | Arriving in Seville sets the tone: warm air, historic density, and lived-in beauty. In the evening, Night at the Alcázar transforms one of Spain’s most iconic sites into a hushed, almost dreamlike experience. Without daytime crowds, Mudéjar architecture, courtyards, and gardens feel contemplative. Soft lighting and stillness reveal details slowly, allowing history to surface through atmosphere rather than explanation. Beginning the journey at night feels symbolic, encouraging observation before movement. The Alcázar becomes an emotional entry point into Andalusia’s layered soul.

DAY 2 - SEVILLE | Today explores Seville’s quieter, introspective side. Moving through intimate spaces, the city reveals how spirituality, art, and daily life intertwine. Rather than accumulating facts, the focus is on awareness and emotional connection. By slowing down, Seville’s warmth and complexity come into focus. This day grounds the experience, balancing the previous night’s magic with lived meaning.

DAY 3 – SEVILLE TO TAVIRA | The morning begins with an experience exploring flamenco through fashion and design, highlighting its evolution as a living tradition. In the afternoon, you drive west and south, crossing into Portugal and arriving in Tavira. Its riverfront calm and understated elegance mark a clear shift from Andalusian intensity to Algarve tranquility.

DAY 4 – A:GARVAE | The day focuses on two pillars of Portugal’s rural economy: acorn-fed pigs and salt. Visiting Zambujal and Alcoutim, you’ll see how food systems emerge from ecology, patience, and centuries of knowledge. The quiet landscape underscores how culture is sustained through labor, restraint, and continuity.

DAY 5 – ALGARVE | Morning in Alte brings an encounter with ancestral artisans, celebrating manual knowledge passed through generations. Afterward, you drive north toward Lisbon, leaving the Algarve hills as the landscape opens toward the Tagus. Lisbon’s larger scale and layered energy unfold gradually over two nights.

DAY 6 – LISBON | The morning reframes Lisbon through the lives of women who shaped its cultural and social fabric. In the afternoon, Saudade: Lisbon’s Soul explores the city’s defining emotional undercurrent—reflective, expressive, and resilient rather than nostalgic. Together, these experiences offer a complete portrait of Lisbon: strong, tender, and deeply human.

WHERE TO STAY | In Seville, Santa Cruz offers historic calm near the Alcázar, while El Arenal feels more local and walkable. In Tavira, stay near the Gilão River or historic center. In the Eastern Algarve interior, rural guesthouses near Alcoutim or Castro Marim deepen immersion. In Lisbon, Alfama suits those drawn to history and saudade; Chiado and Bairro Alto balance culture, dining, and centrality. Each choice supports the journey’s rhythm and sense of place.

Ruins & Mediterranean Shores

14 days in Italy exploring Rome, Naples, and Sicily through guided tours, cuisine, and coastlines.

From the iconic Dubrovnik walls to the calm waters of Banje Beach, this three-day journey invites you to explore the city’s rich heritage and coastal beauty at your own pace. Walk through centuries of history, taste traditional Croatian food in atmospheric Old Town restaurants, and end your days with a golden boat ride in Dubrovnik’s shimmering bay.

DAY 1 – CITY WALLS AND FORTRESS | Begin your trip with a morning walk along Dubrovnik’s city walls. This 1.2-mile loop offers sweeping views over rooftops and sea, with countless photo moments along the way. For lunch, head to Proto Fish in the Old Town, known for its elegant terrace and fresh Adriatic seafood. In the afternoon, visit War Photo Limited, a striking gallery that documents human conflict through powerful photography. Continue to Lovrijenac Fortress, perched just outside the city walls, where stone stairs lead to panoramic views and centuries of defense history. In the evening, join a culinary walking tour led by locals. You’ll taste traditional dishes, hear family stories, and explore the city’s flavors through its oldest streets.

DAY 2 – BEACH, MOUNTAIN, AND SEA | Spend the morning at Banje Beach, just outside the Old Town gates. Swim in clear water, relax with a book, or simply take in the view of the city rising above the bay. After a midday break, make your way to Mount Srđ. Whether you hike or take the cable car, the view from the top is unforgettable, with wide horizons stretching over Dubrovnik and the coast. As the sun begins to set, step aboard a boat for a sunset cruise along the shoreline. The city glows behind you as the boat glides past islands and cliffs, closing the day on the water.

DAY 3 – MONASTIC AND BAROQUE HERITAGE | Start your day at the Franciscan and Dominican monasteries, two of Dubrovnik’s most historic sanctuaries. These calm, beautiful places are filled with carved cloisters, quiet chapels, and traces of centuries past. For lunch, walk to Konoba Kopun, a small square near the Jesuit steps where traditional Dalmatian recipes are served with care. In the afternoon, explore Dubrovnik Cathedral, a baroque landmark filled with light, then visit the Rector’s Palace, once the seat of power in the Republic of Ragusa. As your final experience, leave the city behind and visit Trsteno, a coastal village known for its historic gardens. A guided walk and picnic offer a quiet, green farewell to your time in Dubrovnik.

WHERE TO STAY IN DUBROVNIK | If you want to be in the heart of it all, stay inside the Old Town. It’s full of charm but also crowds and stairs. For more space and sea views, choose neighborhoods like Ploče or Lapad just outside the walls. Both offer easy access while giving you a peaceful place to rest.

Stone, Sea, Story in Dubrovnik

3 days in Dubrovnik with Old Town walks, exploring Fort Lovrijenac, Croatian food, and Banje Beach.

A rhythm of sand, salt, and sky unfolds across three elemental days in the Atacama Desert. This journey takes you from grounded, hands-on moments to vast desert panoramas — from the intimacy of a ceramics workshop to the stillness of floating lagoons and the dazzling clarity of the high-altitude night. Designed for travelers drawn to light, texture, and time, it pairs immersive photography with meditative moments of pause. You’ll begin slowly, then ascend into the surreal landscapes of the altiplano before closing among geysers, wetlands, and warm springs.
DAY 1 – CLAY, FLOATING, AND STARS | The journey begins gently in the Salt Mountain Range, where you’ll be welcomed into the adobe studio of a local ceramic artist. Using a clay unique to the region, shaped by ancestral Licarantai traditions, you’ll create your own piece while learning how reverence for Pachamama lives on through craft. In the afternoon, take time on your own to visit nearby Laguna Cejar — a salt-rich lagoon where the water suspends you weightlessly in its mineral grip.
DAY 2 – FLAMINGOS AND THE ALTIPLANO | Wake early to head deep into the Chilean altiplano. This is a day of altitude and scale, where pastel lagoons stretch beneath volcanoes and flamingos lift off from mirror-still water. As you travel across remote salt flats and highland valleys, your guide helps shape the light into story through photography. There’s time to pause, to breathe thinner air, to notice shadow and color shift by the hour. After returning to town, the evening invites rest and reflection after a day spent far above sea level.
DAY 3 – GEYSERS AND WATERS | Before sunrise, set out north toward El Tatio, where steam rises from the earth in silence. As the first light filters across the geysers, capture the raw power of fire meeting water at 4,000 meters. Descend slowly through villages and wetlands, where llamas and flamingos move between grasses and mineral pools. The day ends in thermal springs tucked inside a desert canyon. Let your body ease back into warmth as your time in the Atacama comes to a close.
WHERE TO STAY IN SAN PEDRO DE ATACAMA | Most travelers base themselves in San Pedro, a walkable adobe town that serves as the region’s gateway. For easy access to experiences, stay near the center where pickups and drop-offs are seamless. If you prefer quiet evenings, choose a boutique lodge just outside the plaza. Accommodations range from rustic guesthouses to high-end eco-hotels, many designed with local materials and open-air courtyards perfect for desert stargazing.
GIVE YOURSELF TIME TO ARRIVE | The desert rewards those who arrive slowly. Because much of this journey takes place at altitude, we recommend arriving in San Pedro at least one or two days before your first experience. This extra time helps you adjust to the dry air, shifting light, and elevation changes that define the Atacama. It also offers space to settle into the desert’s rhythm — walk the quiet streets, explore the artisan market, and watch the color drain from the sky in the evenings. Let the landscape meet you gradually.

Stretching along the banks of the Guadalquivir, this popular promenade links some of Seville’s most famous attractions, offering a blend of history, culture, and leisure activities. The river itself played a key role in Seville’s development, once serving as the main conduit for trade with the New World. Today, the walk is a favorite for both locals and tourists looking for relaxation and a touch of Seville’s past.

Highlights of the Guadalquivir River Walk:

2. Triana Bridge and Market: Cross the picturesque Puente de Triana to visit the traditional Triana neighborhood, known for its flamenco roots and lively market. The market is a great spot for fresh produce, local crafts, and authentic tapas.

3. Parque de María Luisa: Along the river, you'll find this lush park, perfect for a rest amidst palm trees, fountains, and beautiful gardens. Nearby is the iconic Plaza de España, another must-see.

4. River Cruises and Water Activities: If walking isn’t enough, hop on a riverboat cruise for a different perspective of the city. Alternatively, rent a kayak or paddleboard for a more active experience on the water.

Tip: Visit during sunset for a magical atmosphere, as the golden light reflects off the water, providing perfect photo opportunities.

A visit to Fogo Island is all about the power of culture, art and community as catalysts for social and economic change. It’s a story of the indomitable spirit of people who refuse to give up their land.

First Impressions?  Minimalist winter scenery, it’s 🧊 season, one of Fogo Island’s seven  seasons. There are wooden Saltbox Houses, that must have leaped out of a child’s painting book. Reminders of fishing are everywhere. 

My favorite part of the trip is spending time with the islanders who do community orientations and cabin outings for visitors. These are people who are proud of their Irish or English heritage (seven or eight generations in Fogo Island notwithstanding) — who sing songs and tell stories of their ancestors, invite strangers into their homes to share salted cod and tea, take you on ski-doo for ice-fishing, teach you to forage for berries and show you how to preserve vegetables in mason jars to last through winter.

Far Away From Far Away

Trieste, Italy, is home to the Risiera di San Sabba, a former rice mill turned Nazi concentration camp during World War II. As the only Nazi extermination camp in Italy, it serves as a chilling yet essential reminder of one of history’s darkest periods. Today, the site operates as a museum and memorial, honoring the thousands of political prisoners, partisans, and Jewish victims who were imprisoned, tortured, and deported from this location. Walking through the stark, somber complex offers a powerful and deeply moving experience.


1. At the entrance, a vast, empty courtyard evokes a haunting sense of history, where prisoners once stood before being interrogated or deported to Auschwitz and other camps. The atmosphere is solemn and reflective.

2. Inside the museum, exhibits display personal belongings, historical documents, and testimonies from survivors and victims, providing an in-depth look at the horrors that took place here.

3. In the remains of the former crematorium, visitors can see the chilling site where bodies were burned after executions. The original structure was destroyed by retreating Nazis in an attempt to hide evidence of their crimes.

4. Along the walls, prison cells used for interrogation and solitary confinement remain preserved, offering a stark reminder of the suffering endured by those who were held here.

5. The steel memorial sculpture, designed by architect Romano Boico, stands as a tribute to the victims, its cold, industrial design reflecting the brutal reality of the site’s past.

Visitor Tip: Visit with an open heart and allow time to reflect. The museum is free to enter, and audio guides are available to provide deeper historical context.

Faroe Islands

I’m seduced by the untouched beauty and drama of the Faroe Islands. Driving into Tórshavn, I witness a rare Faroese sight.

The ocean is bright red. The beach is packed with onlookers. It’s a grindadráp, a pilot whale hunt. Heavily regulated, it’s being carried out with process perfected over millennia. A local couple points out their son to me, he is on one of the boats — “unless we send a boat, we won’t get our share of the whale meat.”

When a school of pilot whales is sighted, boats gather around and slowly drive them towards the chosen bay or beach, for it’s illegal to kill the whales in the open sea. This time, there are about two hundred of them. Every bit of them will be consumed or used — and none can be sold.

I’m shocked, outraged, fascinated, caught up in the excitement and terribly conflicted. As a traveler, I respect — and seek to understand — culture and tradition. And the Faroese are holding on to this one — as it symbolizes for them their relationship with the sea.
