Many of our favorite getaways close to home are in the Caribbean Islands. Most of these island paradises are still open to tourism, including Aruba, the Bahamas, Barbados, the Dominican Republic, and Jamaica. Grab a drink and relax in the sun on white-sand beaches.
Brazil, Costa Rica, and Mexico are all among the countries in South and Central America that are still opening their borders to Americans. Explore the Amazon in Brazil or the Mayan ruins in the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. Tourist hotspots like Christ the Redeemer and Chichen Itza will have far less traffic than usual.
Hop across the pond to visit our European neighbors. A number of countries on the Mediterranean are open for travel, including Malta. Ireland and the United Kingdom are also open for travel, but require a 14-day quarantine upon arrival.
If you’re looking to travel and get out of the house, it doesn’t need to be an international ordeal. With 49 different states to choose from, go on a road trip, visit friends or family, go see a cultural site that you’ve never seen. With a wealth of natural and cultural sites, there is guaranteed to be something for everybody, and close to home too!

Although there has been a small craze in the last few years about putting butter in coffee, people living in the region of the Himalayas have been putting butter in their tea for hundreds of years. Yaks have been commonly available, making them the perfect way to make fermented tea creamier.
Another drink reigning from the Central American country of Costa Rica, this drink literally means sweet water. People make it by scraping sugar cane into a cup of boiling water or milk to start their day.

]]>Central Park is probably one of the most famous parks in the world. It is a landmark of New York City for good reason, as it splits the city into the Upper East and Upper West Side neighborhood. You could easily spend the entire day walking around the park, eating at the various restaurants, and enjoying all the ponds and infrastructures.

Rome is home to the Villa Doria Pamphili, a beautifully landscaped park that is actually the biggest in all of Rome. Set amongst a 17th-century villa, the park itself is a magical place to escape from all the chaos of the city.
Although Los Angeles is not a city known for their parks, Griffith Park is definitely one that you need to see. It is a wonderful place to go hiking with many different trails leading you to stunning views of both nature and the Los Angeles skyline.

If you’re staying at a hostel, make friends with the people at the front desk or other staff members! Most likely they will give you generic recommendations, but if you befriend them they are much more likely to go into the nitty-gritty and tell you the real dirt about the city.
Explore places outside the city center and start talking to people. Even though not everyone you meet will speak English, be patient and you can probably make some new friends and get some good dirt.

When you are traveling throughout the Middle East, with a few exceptions, know that you will have to cover up. Even though it gets hot there, it is traditional to wear clothes that at least cover your knees, and some historic or ancient sites will not admit you if you are not dressed modestly. The best way to do that is with light fabrics like linen and cotton.
