Dominica
Dominica, known as the “Nature Island of the Caribbean,” is a haven for eco-tourists and adventure seekers. Nestled between the French islands of Guadeloupe and Martinique, this lush island boasts a remarkable landscape of volcanic mountains, dense rainforests, and stunning waterfalls. Dominica’s most iconic natural wonder is the Boiling Lake, the second-largest hot spring in the world.
Cres
Cres is a large Adriatic island off Croatia’s northern coast, shaped by a long history of seafaring, pastoral life, and quiet isolation.
Greenland
Greenland, the world’s largest island, offers travelers an experience that feels like stepping onto another planet. Vast ice sheets, towering glaciers, and deep fjords stretch across the horizon, creating a landscape that constantly shifts with the light. During summer, the Midnight Sun casts a golden glow well past midnight, while winter brings months of darkness lit by vibrant displays of the Northern Lights.
Grundarfjörður
Situated on the north coast of the Snæfellsnes peninsula between a mountain range and the sea is the small town of Grundarfjordur, Iceland. Though certainly now the most well-known town on the peninsula, its nearby mountain Kirkjufell ("church mountain" in Icelandic) is perhaps Iceland's most famous.
Dubuque
Dubuque sits along the Mississippi River in northeastern Iowa, where steep limestone bluffs rise above a broad river corridor. The city is Iowa’s oldest incorporated community and developed around river commerce, lead mining, manufacturing, and trade. Its historic downtown contains preserved brick buildings, churches, shops, restaurants, and the distinctive Town Clock, while the Port of Dubuque provides a more modern riverfront district.
