If a lack of vacation days is holding you back from taking a road trip across the USA this year, it might be time to turn to math to make it happen.
On a hot summer’s day in Arlington, Texas, I’m walking through a small, little-known cemetery. Gold-embossed lettering glitters from black marble tombs. Colourful bunches of flowers, some with tear-stained notes, dot the narrow path. But – thankfully – I’m not here to grieve for a recently-passed family member; which begs the question, what exactly am I doing here?
Moscow has served as Russia’s capital for most of its history, except for a short period when the Tsar relocated to St Petersburg.

In Iqaluit, the capital of Canada’s territory of Nunavut, the afternoon temperature in April hovers around 5°F (-15°C) – not exactly weather for daffodils or cocktails on the terrace. However, this is springtime in a region where the sun barely rises above the horizon for months, and the arrival of this new season is something to celebrate.
Strong and flavourful Vietnamese coffee makes converts as quickly as it raises pulses. French colonists might have introduced coffee to Vietnam, but the morning cup of ca phe soon became a local habit. With variations that incorporate yoghurt, eggs, and even fruit, Vietnamese coffee has developed a distinctive style of its own.
It’s a sweltering September morning in Nairobi when I make my way into a gas station to grab cold water for the road. My 10-day journey with Intrepid’s firstfemale-only expeditionthrough Kenya has only just begun. I feel a small bead of sweat collect on the back of my neck before it drops down my spine and seemingly evaporates into thin air somewhere along the way. As I step outside, I think to myself,what sweet relief it will be for the engine to turn over on our 20-passenger truck, roll down the windows, and feel the air wash over my face. And that’s when I see it. The truck broke down.
If your family is eager to don their Mickey and Minnie ears for a memorable vacation, the next question is which US park to choose: should you venture west and visit Walt Disney’s original park, Disneyland in Anaheim, California, or should you head south to experience the fun with Pluto and friends at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida?
Sometimes, a picture really is worth a thousand words.

By our fourth day in Merida, Mexico, we felt we’d seen most of the major sights (especially on this day and this day for the cenotes and Mayan ruins just outside of Merida), but one place we hadn’t covered yet was Paseo de Montejo, renowned for its grand homes and palaces.
