As celebrity chef, cookbook author, TV host, world traveler, and wordsmith Anthony Bourdain once said, “Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and…
In 2013, while visiting the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), I had one of the most surreal tourism experiences of my life. But it wasn’t for the reason I expected. If you don’t remember, 2013 was also the year that a jointly run North and South Korean factory was temporarily shut down (and the resolution talks…
Being on a flight can be one of the most stressful parts of any trip, business or leisure. Now imagine having to do it multiple times a week. And imagine if it were your job. Flight attendants tend to get an unfair reputation as nothing more than in-flight servants by some entitled passengers, but they’re…

Armed with the knowledge that my dad is (almost!) always right, I quickly located an emergency exit on the floor of my new apartment building and pointed…
I’d spent two weeks in Rio Dulce, the yachting capital of Guatemala, and all I wanted to do was get out. Masha, the Russian-Canadian kiteboarder, agreed. “I feel so claustrophobic there,” she said. Decked out in mesh anti-mosquito pants, she helped her boyfriend, Jim, strike sail on his 28-foot Beneteau named Chakra. “And I think…
You know that feeling when you’re on vacation — pina colada in one hand, beach read in the other — and you think to yourself “I wish I could stay here forever”? Well, Lina and David Stock, the husband-and-wife team behind Divergent Travelers, took the road less traveled and turned that familiar fantasy into their…
Being an Oyster hotel investigator is eventful, to say the least. The globetrotting gig is filled with memorable once-in-a-lifetime moments like spotting wildlife in the Galapagos Islands, exploring tranquil destinations like Fiji and bustling cities like Cartagena, and capturing every inch of a hotel’s grounds, so that fellow travelers know exactly what they’re in for…
Photo by Katherine Alex Beaven From the street, the Red Coach Inn looks cute, quaint, and adorably cozy. The sky may be an ominous blue-gray, but the 93-year-old, English Tudor-style inn, with a red-bricked first floor, black wrought iron gates, and deep-steeped roof, appears warm and welcoming. You can almost picture a fire roasting inside.…
View of the bog; Photo by Katherine Alex Beaven “How do you like the harvest?” Cas Gilmore asks as he grins ear-to-ear. He’s a sixth generation cranberry farmer; his great-great-great grandfather, John Makepeace, was one of the three founding fathers of the Ocean Spray cooperative back in 1930. Right now, we’re both wading to our…
