Known for its rich musical heritage and southern charm, Nashville is one of my favorite cities in the U.S. Whether you’re a country music fan or a foodie looking to indulge in some mouthwatering barbecue, this city has something for everyone. As a popular weekend destination (and bachelor/bachelorette hotspot), there are a lot of hotels…
9 One of the best places to see nature and animals in Thailand is at the Khao Sok National Park, near Phuket. We spent 3 days at Khao Sok and had a blast. The turquoise lake is really nice, and it’s easy to see animals in the park. We even saw wild elephants! The best…
81 The Ciletuh Geopark is a scenic valley in West Java that’s loaded with big waterfalls and other good things to see. This area is a UNESCO-designated global geopark, and it has some of the best waterfalls in Indonesia, but most international tourists have never heard of it. We spent several days here and we…
7 Yosemite was one of the first national parks established in the United States, and in my opinion it’s one of the most beautiful places in the world. You won’t see the whole park in one day, because it covers almost 1,200 square miles, but it’s enough time to see a lot of the main…
Quebec City is beautiful. While it’s regularly overlooked in favor of bigger destinations like Toronto and Montreal, this is where European explorers first arrived in the 16th and 17th centuries. A cultural hub in the province of Quebec (as well as the province’s capital), the city’s Old Town is one of the best preserved in…

It felt that too many websites were over-optimized for search and not run by real people providing real answers based on firsthand experience. Instead, there were too many SEO farms pumping out bad content for search and ad revenue. Hence, the desire to put…
The South Island of New Zealand is the country’s larger (but less-populated) island…but it’s also the most visually stunning. With just 23% of the country’s 5.2 million inhabitants, it’s a dramatic and beautiful island, home to wineries, wildlife, high-octane adventure sports, and pristine beaches. This is the island that people end up spending more time…
New Orleans is one of my favorite places in the world (and that’s saying something). There’s just something about this city. It’s magic. The people and energy make it impossible not to have a good time here. It’s really bounced back from Hurricane Katrina (I visited right after, and it was a completely different city)….
From cosmopolitan cities to stunning nature, pristine beaches to volcanic mountains, New Zealand’s North Island really packs a punch. Home to seventy-five percent of New Zealand’s population, a lot of travelers think you can easily see the sights in a matter of days. The island isn’t huge after all. But there’s actually a lot of…
Big news everyone! The Nomadic Network (TNN) is back! TNN is the community we built for travelers back in 2019. TNN’s goal was to connect fellow travelers through in-person meetups all around the world.
