Greetings From… Split, Croatia

Touted by many as the “new” Italian Riviera, the Dalmatian coast of Croatia is dotted with countless charming communities. With a population of roughly 250,000, Split, Croatia’s second-largest city, is like an open-air museum.

Travel Photo Thursday: Brooklyn Bridge, New York

Chá Gorreana: Europe’s Only Tea Plantation

The tidy rows of chá bushes that stripe the rolling, emerald hillsides almost seem out of place. Chá, the Portuguese word for tea, is certainly not something you’d expect to see growing on an island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. In fact, the fifty-or-so hectares at the Chá Gorreana tea plantation (Plantações de […]
