Bend, OregonWhenever anyone comes to Bend, they straightaway feel devoured by envy that they don't live in this wonderful western town. For outdoor activities, the town is unrivaled, boasting options in the Deschutes River watershed and the Cascades. Being close to the high desert, Bend's summers are saturated with warm days and cool refreshing nights. As for the food and music scene, need we say more?

...and much safer to bring the jungle to the hotel than vice versa.

Cappadocia, TurkeyCappadocia, an area in Turkey where entire cities have been carved into rock, is pretty incredible on its own. But whenever hot-air balloons pepper the sky, its beauty level simply skyrockets.

The Strait of Naruto, Japan, located between Naruto city and the Island of Awaj, where the waters of the Kii Canal fall into the Seto Inland Sea, is one of the world's three largest tidal currents, along with the Strait of Messina in Italy and the Seymour Narrows, located between America and Canada. The speed of the currents can reach up to 15-20km/h. Because of this, a large number of whirlpools of various dimensions get formed in this area, with some of them reaching even 20 m in diameter. The best time to see the whirlpools is an hour before or after the high tide and the low tide. The largest whirlpools emerge during the high tides in spring and autumn.

I was there in 1980, but then, only the tower was finished. I turned out that the guide had worked alongside my uncle in Ethiopia!

A few kilometers from the town of Kotor, Montenegro in Boca Bay lies the small and ancient town of Perast, decorated with uniquely built church buildings. Excellent fish restaurants, mountain views and Boca Bay at the foot of the city are some of the attractions this area has to offer, but undoubtedly the biggest attraction is a trip to the small island in front of the city called "Our Lady of the Rock" and next to it to the Historical museum about the place. You can get there by way of small taxi boats that leave every few minutes.

We can’t get enough of the National Park of American Samoa. Like an emerald set in an ocean of aquamarine, this jewel of a park welcomes visitors to a world of sights, sounds and experiences unlike any other national park in the United States. You can celebrate Samoan culture, spot exotic birds, snorkel in clear ocean waters and hike up into the lush mountains for unforgettable views. And after all that, you can just lay on the perfect white sand beach. Photo by National Park Service.
