Review: Cyclomundo Sicilian Crossroads self-guided tour
Siciliy’s winding, hilly roads and sweeping landscapes offered the perfect pandemic tonic for our travel-deprived souls.

5 things I noticed about Sicily
Just a stone’s throw over the Mediterranean from Italy’s “toe,” Sicily is one of the country’s most beautiful regions and enjoys a distinct character. It’s got a bit more of a laid-back vibe than the mainland, in our experience. You’d be hard-pressed to find any business open between the hours of 1 -4 p.m., for example, when Sicilians take a leisurely lunch break.

After a bit of online research, it seems my hypothesis about how dogs differ around the world has some merit. […]

Art is also an enduring visual reminder of your travels that offers more than, say, a fridge magnet. I reached out to a few people in my real life and online network for art-buying stories and advice on how to make a wise purchase while travelling. […]
7 Unconventional Museums Worth Visiting
I’ve visited my fair share of galleries and museums around the world, and to be honest, I don’t remember much about most of them. Unless you’re deeply into art or history, it all becomes a blur of genius talent and antiquity. On the other hand, I have experienced several unconventional museums during my travels that have stayed with me years later. Some have been on the lowbrow side, but they are all so much fun. Here are seven unconventional gems worth visiting on your next trip to one of these cities. […]
