One day retreat to Takayama.. definitely a tourist trap as a town, but probably worth it if you are staying more than 2 days for hikes etc.
A visit to the princess islands – a short commute of 1.5 hours across the Marmara Sea – was one of the highlights of our stay in Istanbul. Mostly for the ferry ride and the cimit (turkish sesame bagels) that you can purchase on the boat.
Checking out the sky high business of Pudong area across from the Bund in Shanghai, China.
Hiking around the hills of Lake Inle with our guide Thanzin (like Dancing) — from Sunny day tours, he was great! — and Mr. Peter.
We are off on our first adventure outside of Tbilisi — the wild and pristine mountains of Tusheti. The road from Tbilisi to Tusheti is only maybe 120 km, but it took us 9 hours (!) due to the highway conditions. Never mind that though, just enjoys the views!
