North America

A hip neighbourhood with plenty of quiet areas, Brooklyn Heights has a distinct town feel over it, some great architecture, tree-lined streets and streets with shops and restaurants. Visit North America

Africa

Fantastic hiking terrain, with surprisingly well-equipped cabins and many trails to explore the basins. Here, you can see wildlife, waterfalls, peaks, rocks, trees - and peace of mind. Visit Africa

Asia

A small temple on a historical site is dwarfed by an ocean of prayer flags, which also cover some parts of the kora on the hill behind the temple. Visit Asia

Europe

Behind the city walls, the old town of Kotor has much to offer when it comes to narrow alleys, quiet squares, unexpected encounters; on top of that: several charming churches and history jumping at you from all sides. Visit Europe

Oceania

The Great Ocean Road will take you to cliffs that were literally cut off the mainland. Visit Oceania

Central&South America

Everywhere on the streets of Cap Haïtien, you can see people trying to scratch a living and earn some small money. It only adds to the admiration one must feel for Haitians working hard for very little. Visit Central&South America

Antarctica

Elephant seals and different kinds of penguins on a black sand beach at the foot of a rockface covered by a glacier: Gold Harbour is the icing of the cake of a visit to South Georgia. Visit Antarctica
