Summer in the Nordic Island Nation

As Iceland prepares to open its arms to tourists on June 15th, we’re day-dreaming about swan diving into the sparkling Blue Lagoon, road tripping around Ring Road, scuba diving the Silfra Fissure, stuffing our faces with local seafood in Reykjavik until it’s necessary to unbutton our pants, and exploring all that the Golden Circle route has to offer. We’ll be waiting with our passport ready to be stamped, ready to consume all the adventures to be had and sights to be seen, from the dramatic landscapes – geysers, volcanoes, hot springs, and lava fields – to meeting friendly locals, and getting cozy in cocktail bars. From long days and whale watching in the summer, catching the northern lights in the winter, and admiring the arrival of the puffins in the spring, each season brings plenty of good reasons to visit this Nordic island nation.

Would you go on a quietcation? One of this year’s biggest travel trends has us seeking out silence—like the kind you’ll find if you’re in Bali on March 19th for Nyepi. For 24 hours, the island goes quiet in celebration of the Hindu New Year, giving residents and guests space to cleanse negative energy, reflect, and welcome in new beginnings. 📸 Courtesy of Hoshino Resorts #quietcations #traveltrends #luxurytravel #bali

Sometimes, over-the-top trips look like five-star hotels and private jets. Other times, it looks more like this: taking in the stars while on a guided horseback trek across Mongolia’s wild steppes, deserts, and mountains with pelorusx. What’s more your speed? #luxurytravel #travelinspiration #bucketlist #mongolia
