9 Jul 2024Talampaya National Park, Argentina

Today, Talampaya National Park invites us to venture into Argentina"s ancient heart. Situated in La Rioja province, this 830-square-mile park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here, towering red rock formations, reaching skyward at 143 metres, are etched with the secrets of prehistoric life. The park is home to some of the oldest dinosaur remains ever found. Talampaya is also a canvas for ancient art. The park"s cliffs and caves feature petroglyphs created by the Ciénaga, Diaguita and other Indigenous cultures that inhabited the area between the 3rd and 9th centuries CE. Moreover, nature"s beauty is shown in the local flora, like xeric shrubs and cacti, and fauna. Guanacos, hares and foxes roam free, while condors, white-throated cacholotes and Sandy gallitos grace the skies. So, if the spirit of adventure beckons, heed its call.Desktop Version

Sep 10, 2023Grandparents Day

Have you called your nana, abuela, pop-pop or lolo lately? No matter what you call them, there"s no better time to pick up the phone than Grandparents" Day, held on the Sunday after Labor Day. Grandparents play a special role in our lives, helping to raise new generations, passing down family history and sharing the wisdom of their experience. Wisdom is not always indicated by a thick Wilford-Brimley-esque mustache, but whiskers do lend a certain esteemed quality. Perhaps that"s why these Atlantic walruses look like they"re about to tell you why they voted for Hubert Humphrey.Desktop Version

2 Dec 2025Christmas market in Leipzig, Germany

Do you know what people bought at Christmas markets 567 years ago? Not costly ornaments or fancy souvenirs but candles, spices, local goods, knitted items and toys. Leipzig"s Christmas market began in 1458 and quickly became a favourite stop for merchants and locals alike. Today, with its cultural and culinary offerings spread across the historic old town and about 300 stalls, it is one of the largest Christmas markets in Germany. Imagine streets buzzing with the chatter of traders and children following the scent of "Lebkuchen"—honey-sweetened cakes. This is where townsfolk gather to celebrate winter and catch up on news while sipping mulled wine. These markets have always symbolised more than shopping—they offer an escape from the everyday routine.Desktop Version

14 Jun 2025Trooping the Colour

When your head of state has a birthday, you don"t throw a surprise party. You summon the Household Division, clear the Mall and get the Red Arrows to write a message in the sky. Trooping the Colour is a centuries-old military tradition, held each June to mark the official birthday of the reigning monarch—even if their actual birthday is in, say, November. The real reason? The weather"s better. No one wants to troop anything through puddles. There"s marching, music, horses, salutes—and a good chance of spotting a royal in a bearskin or bonnet.Desktop Version
