Borneo, perhaps one of the last true nature paradise destinations, also happens to be the third largest island in the world and the largest in Asia. Located in Southeast Asia’s Malay Archipelago, this rugged, shockingly beautiful island doubles as a biodiversity epicenter.

One of the world’s tiniest countries, Belize, may just be the jeweled crown of adventures for nature, wildlife and ancient human civilizations in Central America and the Caribbean. Tucked neatly into a pocket of mainland Central America and stretched along the Caribbean Coast, friendly Belize (formerly British Honduras until 1981) truly has it all.

Some would argue that Costa Rica, which encompasses one of the most beautiful and biologically diverse regions on Earth, leads the world in ecotourism. Others would go so far as to suggest that it successfully pioneered the concept on a mass scale decades ago.
Alaska

With the official start of summer arriving in just a little over a week, our thoughts are naturally turning to the world’s beaches. We won’t be the only ones, however, who’ll soon be populating the sands. Sea turtles are found in almost every ocean basin throughout the world.

Almost a year ago, in July 2014, Washington state experienced the worst string of wildfires ever in its history. The first fire began on July 8 near the Entiat River. Then, on July 14, a lightning storm started dozens more across the eastern Cascade Range.
Travel Tips
Every few months, it seems that we travelers get hit with increasing airline fees and baggage costs. And as seat space and overhead bins get smaller and smaller, it’s a wonder we can still travel comfortably with any luggage at all. Packing space is extremely limited.
