Folégandros
Folégandros is a small Cycladic island in the Aegean Sea, known for its steep cliffs, dry hills, whitewashed villages, and traditional stone architecture. Its main settlement, Chora, sits more than 200 metres above sea level and extends around the medieval Kastro, a fortified district built near the edge of the cliffs.
Agdz
Agdz is a small town in Morocco’s Drâa Valley, positioned between the High Atlas Mountains and the long oasis corridor leading toward the Sahara. The town sits beside the Drâa River, where irrigated gardens and dense stands of date palms contrast with the surrounding dry hills. Agdz has traditionally served as a stopping point along routes crossing southern Morocco, and its location still makes it a useful base for exploring the valley.
Jerusalem
This beautiful holy city is a spiritual lightning rod and sacred to Jews, Muslims and Christians all over the world. Although Jerusalem is known primarily for its religious history, the city is also home to many artistic and cultural venues.
Belgium
Belgium may be compact, but it offers a surprising variety of experiences shaped by centuries of shifting borders, artistic innovation, and culinary tradition. In Brussels, the Grand Place sets the stage for history and architecture in one square lined with ornate guild halls. The city is also home to the European Union’s headquarters, surrealist painter René Magritte’s former house, and a lively comic book trail that winds through murals of Tintin and other Belgian icons.
Malta
Malta, a small island nation in the heart of the Mediterranean, offers visitors a rich blend of history and vibrant local culture. Its capital, Valletta, is a UNESCO World Heritage site filled with grand Baroque architecture, narrow streets, and significant historical landmarks like St. John’s Co-Cathedral, home to masterpieces by Caravaggio. The city's fortifications tell stories of centuries of military importance, guarding one of Europe’s busiest harbors.
