You can't help but get annoyed by the desert. Perhaps it's the peace, the endless horizon, or the fact that you're in a place so vast and wild that your own problems seem unimportant. I thought I was dreaming when I first set foot on the Saharan sands in Morocco. The air was dry and …
You've undoubtedly imagined Santorini sunsets, Italian piazzas, or Parisian cafés if you've ever daydreamed about Europe. Things changed when I came to know about Albania. When I was planning to come here, I was very doubtful as to why I was going there; I had very low expectations. But what I discovered was truly remarkable. …
You may want to give up in Italy. Perhaps it's the aroma of freshly baked bread from a nearby bakery, the way the sun sets over a vineyard at dusk, or the quiet conversation of a piazza where neighbours converse as if they were family. The true Italy is found in the countryside, where people …

It could be the endless sky, the sight of kangaroos hopping across the horizon, or the salty ocean breeze blowing in your face as you drive along the coast. Due to its size and uniqueness, …
