Game Reserve sits on the western boundary of Kruger National Park in Mpumalanga. It is one of South Africa&#8217;s most celebrated private safari destinations. Guests here find close-up encounters with the Big Five, off-road game drives, and leopard sightings that Kruger&#8217;s public roads simply cannot match. If you are planning a South African safari, Sabi Sand deserves a close look.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/portugals-madeira-at-its-best">Madeira sits far out in the Atlantic Ocean, about 600 miles south-west of mainland Portugal and roughly 400 miles off the coast of Morocco. It is a small island, only about 35 miles long, yet it rises steeply from the sea to more than 1,800 metres at its highest point. This gives it a landscape that changes quickly: warm coastal towns, deep green valleys, and bare volcanic peaks that often stand above the clouds. The island was uninhabited when Portuguese sailors landed in the early 1400s, and much of what visitors see today &#8212; the terraced fields, the water channels, the mountain paths &#8212; was shaped by hand over the centuries that followed.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/portugals-madeira-at-its-best" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/portugals-madeira-at-its-best&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">Funchal, Madeira -

It is a small country, roughly the size of Ireland, but it holds a great deal within its borders: high alpine valleys, subtropical coast, ancient churches cut from stone, and one of the oldest living wine traditions on Earth. People have made wine here for around 8,000 years, and they still do it much as their ancestors did, in clay vessels buried in the ground.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/portugals-madeira-at-its-best">Madeira sits far out in the Atlantic Ocean, about 600 miles south-west of mainland Portugal and roughly 400 miles off the coast of Morocco. It is a small island, only about 35 miles long, yet it rises steeply from the sea to more than 1,800 metres at its highest point. This gives it a landscape that changes quickly: warm coastal towns, deep green valleys, and bare volcanic peaks that often stand above the clouds. The island was uninhabited when Portuguese sailors landed in the early 1400s, and much of what visitors see today &#8212; the terraced fields, the water channels, the mountain paths &#8212; was shaped by hand over the centuries that followed.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/portugals-madeira-at-its-best" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/portugals-madeira-at-its-best&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!kLHf!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F07991511-f9e2-4465-a87b-6fdf363756db_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">Funchal, Madeira - Shutterstock</figcaption></figure></div><div><hr></div><h2>Around the World</h2><h3>Castle Cornet &amp;

It is a small country, roughly the size of Ireland, but it holds a great deal within its borders: high alpine valleys, subtropical coast, ancient churches cut from stone, and one of the oldest living wine traditions on Earth. People have made wine here for around 8,000 years, and they still do it much as their ancestors did, in clay vessels buried in the ground.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

in the Atlantic Ocean, about 600 miles south-west of mainland Portugal and roughly 400 miles off the coast of Morocco. It is a small island, only about 35 miles long, yet it rises steeply from the sea to more than 1,800 metres at its highest point. This gives it a landscape that changes quickly: warm coastal towns, deep green valleys, and bare volcanic peaks that often stand above the clouds. The island was uninhabited when Portuguese sailors landed in the early 1400s, and much of what visitors see today &#8212; the terraced fields, the water channels, the mountain paths &#8212; was shaped by hand over the centuries that followed.</p><p>What makes Madeira different is its climate and its water. The island is mild all year, with warm summers and gentle winters, which is why it earned a reputation long ago as a place for rest and recovery. Because rain falls mostly on the higher, wetter north, early settlers built a network of narrow irrigation channels called levadas to carry water to the drier, sunnier south. There are now around 2,000 miles of these channels, and the paths that run alongside them have become some of the finest walking routes in Europe. You can follow a levada for hours through laurel forest, past waterfalls, and along the edges of steep valleys.</p><p>This is an island that suits slow travel. Distances are short on the map but slow on the ground, because the roads twist and climb. The pleasure here comes from walking, from long lunches, and from watching the weather move across the peaks. It suits travellers who are happy to take a few days over a small area rather than rush from sight to sight.</p><h3>In This Email:</h3><ul><li><p><strong>Portugal&#8217;s Madeira at its Best </strong>- Travel from the harbour city of Funchal up into the gardens of Monte, then higher still to the island&#8217;s central peaks.

It is a small country, roughly the size of Ireland, but it holds a great deal within its borders: high alpine valleys, subtropical coast, ancient churches cut from stone, and one of the oldest living wine traditions on Earth. People have made wine here for around 8,000 years, and they still do it much as their ancestors did, in clay vessels buried in the ground.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/georgias-wild-caucasus" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/efbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/georgias-wild-caucasus&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">Shepherd with herd of sheep along Georgian military road, Zhinvali village, Mtskheta-Mtianeti, Georgia -

These sea-arms are the fjords: deep channels carved by glaciers over many thousands of years, then filled by the sea when the ice retreated. The result is a landscape of steep rock walls, waterfalls, and small farms set on narrow shelves of green. This is one of the clearest examples anywhere of how ice shapes a country, and it has drawn travellers for well over a century.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

href="https://www.visitgreece.gr/en/islands/cyclades/santorini">Santorini, known in ancient times as Thera, is one of the most famous islands in the world. It owes this to its active volcano, in whose caldera you can stay, enjoy exceptional local products, and have a drink or coffee while taking in an unparalleled view. Santorini is located at the southernmost point of the Cyclades and comprises a complex of islands: Thera, Thirasia, Aspronisi, Palea Kameni and Nea Kameni. Behind its current image lies a fascinating geological history: successive major explosive phases over hundreds of thousands of years shaped the characteristic caldera, collapsing and rebirthing the island time and again.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://www.visitgreece.gr/en/islands/cyclades/santorini" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ny_3!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc293a0f6-b093-4d18-bd84-d7a66a4558b7_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ny_3!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc293a0f6-b093-4d18-bd84-d7a66a4558b7_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ny_3!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc293a0f6-b093-4d18-bd84-d7a66a4558b7_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ny_3!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc293a0f6-b093-4d18-bd84-d7a66a4558b7_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ny_3!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc293a0f6-b093-4d18-bd84-d7a66a4558b7_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/c293a0f6-b093-4d18-bd84-d7a66a4558b7_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://www.visitgreece.gr/en/islands/cyclades/santorini&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ny_3!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc293a0f6-b093-4d18-bd84-d7a66a4558b7_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ny_3!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc293a0f6-b093-4d18-bd84-d7a66a4558b7_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ny_3!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc293a0f6-b093-4d18-bd84-d7a66a4558b7_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ny_3!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc293a0f6-b093-4d18-bd84-d7a66a4558b7_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">Summer sunset vacation scenic of luxury famous Europe destination.

People have made wine here for around 8,000 years, and they still do it much as their ancestors did, in clay vessels buried in the ground.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/georgias-wild-caucasus" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/efbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/georgias-wild-caucasus&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">Shepherd with herd of sheep along Georgian military road, Zhinvali village, Mtskheta-Mtianeti, Georgia -

This volcanic beach gets its name from the deep red cliffs that tower above dark pebbles and sand.</a></p><h3>Walk from Fira to Oia</h3><p><a href="https://santorinidave.com/fira-oia-hike">The Fira-to-Oia hike is Santorini&#8217;s best walk and my favorite activity on the island. The route follows the caldera rim through Fira, Firostefani, and Imerovigli before crossing a rugged, exposed trail to Oia</a></p><h3>A Santorini Sunset Cruise</h3><p><a href="https://www.manawa.com/en/articles/santorini-sunset-cruise">Perched atop incredible volcanic cliffs and surrounded by the deep blue Aegean Sea, Santorini is one of Greece&#8217;s most iconic destinations.</a></p><div><hr></div><h2>Norway&#8217;s Western Fjords</h2><p><a href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords">Western Norway sits along the country&#8217;s Atlantic edge, where a coastline of islands, inlets, and long sea-arms reaches far inland between high mountains. These sea-arms are the fjords: deep channels carved by glaciers over many thousands of years, then filled by the sea when the ice retreated. The result is a landscape of steep rock walls, waterfalls, and small farms set on narrow shelves of green. This is one of the clearest examples anywhere of how ice shapes a country, and it has drawn travellers for well over a century.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

It is a small country, roughly the size of Ireland, but it holds a great deal within its borders: high alpine valleys, subtropical coast, ancient churches cut from stone, and one of the oldest living wine traditions on Earth.

The beach is surrounded by natural dunes and jagged cliffs, topped with a 17th-century watchtower built by the Knights of Malta.</a></p><h3>A Cathedral Like No Other</h3><p><a href="https://darkmaltatours.com/tour/secrets-of-st-johns-co-cathedral/">Built by the Order of St John, this church is one of Tripadvisor&#8217;s Top 25 Attractions in Europe and has &#8220;the most beautiful floor in the world&#8221; consisting of more than 400 marble tomb slabs.</a></p><h3>Welcome to Blue Lagoon</h3><p><a href="https://bluelagoon.com.mt/">Malta is a marvelous country with loads of things to offer, all in a very small area. Blue Lagoon is one of Malta&#8216;s top jewels and anyone who visits the Islands will want to explore it.</a></p><h3>How to Spend a Day in Valletta</h3><p><a href="https://www.nationalgeographic.com/travel/article/what-to-do-valletta-malta">Built by the Knights of St John in the 16th century, Valletta retains much of its time-worn charm, with narrow streets leading between honey-coloured buildings, and glimpses of the Mediterranean never far from view.</a></p><div><hr></div><h2>Norway&#8217;s Western Fjords</h2><p><a href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords">Western Norway sits along the country&#8217;s Atlantic edge, where a coastline of islands, inlets, and long sea-arms reaches far inland between high mountains. These sea-arms are the fjords: deep channels carved by glaciers over many thousands of years, then filled by the sea when the ice retreated. The result is a landscape of steep rock walls, waterfalls, and small farms set on narrow shelves of green. This is one of the clearest examples anywhere of how ice shapes a country, and it has drawn travellers for well over a century.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

These sea-arms are the fjords: deep channels carved by glaciers over many thousands of years, then filled by the sea when the ice retreated. The result is a landscape of steep rock walls, waterfalls, and small farms set on narrow shelves of green. This is one of the clearest examples anywhere of how ice shapes a country, and it has drawn travellers for well over a century.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

There are extraordinary things to do on Staten Island that almost no tourists bother to discover &#8212; from a living history museum that dates to 1695, to 2,800 acres of urban forest, a world-class botanical garden, and some of the finest pizza you will eat anywhere in the five boroughs.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://lovetovisitnewyork.com/things-to-do-on-staten-island-complete-visitors-guide-2026/" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sdgU!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4710b288-e22b-457f-8763-5fbe071cc063_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sdgU!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4710b288-e22b-457f-8763-5fbe071cc063_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sdgU!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4710b288-e22b-457f-8763-5fbe071cc063_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sdgU!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4710b288-e22b-457f-8763-5fbe071cc063_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sdgU!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4710b288-e22b-457f-8763-5fbe071cc063_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/4710b288-e22b-457f-8763-5fbe071cc063_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://lovetovisitnewyork.com/things-to-do-on-staten-island-complete-visitors-guide-2026/&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sdgU!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4710b288-e22b-457f-8763-5fbe071cc063_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sdgU!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4710b288-e22b-457f-8763-5fbe071cc063_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sdgU!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4710b288-e22b-457f-8763-5fbe071cc063_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sdgU!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4710b288-e22b-457f-8763-5fbe071cc063_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">Aerial view of Staten Island St George Ferry terminal. -

It is a small country, roughly the size of Ireland, but it holds a great deal within its borders: high alpine valleys, subtropical coast, ancient churches cut from stone, and one of the oldest living wine traditions on Earth. People have made wine here for around 8,000 years, and they still do it much as their ancestors did, in clay vessels buried in the ground.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/georgias-wild-caucasus" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/efbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/georgias-wild-caucasus&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eXIe!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefbbc779-922d-4ce1-ad94-e7c0c4155479_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">Shepherd with herd of sheep along Georgian military road, Zhinvali village, Mtskheta-Mtianeti, Georgia -

These sea-arms are the fjords: deep channels carved by glaciers over many thousands of years, then filled by the sea when the ice retreated. The result is a landscape of steep rock walls, waterfalls, and small farms set on narrow shelves of green. This is one of the clearest examples anywhere of how ice shapes a country, and it has drawn travellers for well over a century.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

point of Europe and Asia, in the southern folds of the Caucasus Mountains between the Black Sea and the peaks that mark the border with Russia. It is a small country, roughly the size of Ireland, but it holds a great deal within its borders: high alpine valleys, subtropical coast, ancient churches cut from stone, and one of the oldest living wine traditions on Earth. People have made wine here for around 8,000 years, and they still do it much as their ancestors did, in clay vessels buried in the ground.</p><p>What makes Georgia different is how much of its past remains part of daily life. This is not a country that has turned its heritage into a museum. Monasteries built in the sixth century still hold services. Families still press grapes each autumn and store the wine underground. The Georgian language has its own alphabet, one of only a handful of writing systems still in use worldwide, and you will see its rounded letters on every shopfront and street sign. The country adopted Christianity in the early fourth century, which places it among the oldest Christian nations anywhere.</p><p>This route suits travellers who prefer depth over speed. Distances are short but roads can be slow, so the pleasure lies in stopping often &#8212; for a long lunch, a glass of amber wine, or an hour in a quiet courtyard. It rewards patience and an open mind, and it works best for those who enjoy real conversation, simple comfort, and food made with care.</p><h3>In This Email:</h3><ul><li><p><strong>Georgia's Wild Caucasus - </strong>Below you will find a clear, practical guide to five places that give you the fullest sense of the country, along with a suggested seven-day route, the best times to travel, and honest notes on how to get around.

These sea-arms are the fjords: deep channels carved by glaciers over many thousands of years, then filled by the sea when the ice retreated. The result is a landscape of steep rock walls, waterfalls, and small farms set on narrow shelves of green. This is one of the clearest examples anywhere of how ice shapes a country, and it has drawn travellers for well over a century.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">N&#230;r&#248;yfjord, Norway during winter - Shutterstock</figcaption></figure></div><div><hr></div><h2>Around the World</h2><h3>The Alley Helsinki</h3><p><a href="https://www.thealleyhelsinki.com/">The Alley Helsinki is a welcoming spot for enjoying good food and drinks in a relaxed setting.

The real place has little to do with the vampire stories. For more than 800 years, this was a meeting point of cultures. German-speaking settlers known as the Saxons arrived here in the 12th and 13th centuries, invited by the Hungarian crown to farm the land and defend the frontier. They built stone towns, guild halls, and fortified churches that still stand today. Alongside them lived Hungarians, Romanians, and Roma communities, each leaving a mark on the food, language, and buildings.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link

href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords">Western Norway sits along the country&#8217;s Atlantic edge, where a coastline of islands, inlets, and long sea-arms reaches far inland between high mountains. These sea-arms are the fjords: deep channels carved by glaciers over many thousands of years, then filled by the sea when the ice retreated. The result is a landscape of steep rock walls, waterfalls, and small farms set on narrow shelves of green. This is one of the clearest examples anywhere of how ice shapes a country, and it has drawn travellers for well over a century.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">N&#230;r&#248;yfjord, Norway during winter -

The real place has little to do with the vampire stories. For more than 800 years, this was a meeting point of cultures. German-speaking settlers known as the Saxons arrived here in the 12th and 13th centuries, invited by the Hungarian crown to farm the land and defend the frontier. They built stone towns, guild halls, and fortified churches that still stand today. Alongside them lived Hungarians, Romanians, and Roma communities, each leaving a mark on the food, language, and buildings.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link

These sea-arms are the fjords: deep channels carved by glaciers over many thousands of years, then filled by the sea when the ice retreated. The result is a landscape of steep rock walls, waterfalls, and small farms set on narrow shelves of green. This is one of the clearest examples anywhere of how ice shapes a country, and it has drawn travellers for well over a century.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">N&#230;r&#248;yfjord, Norway during winter -

The real place has little to do with the vampire stories. For more than 800 years, this was a meeting point of cultures. German-speaking settlers known as the Saxons arrived here in the 12th and 13th centuries, invited by the Hungarian crown to farm the land and defend the frontier. They built stone towns, guild halls, and fortified churches that still stand today. Alongside them lived Hungarians, Romanians, and Roma communities, each leaving a mark on the food, language, and buildings.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link

href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords">Western Norway sits along the country&#8217;s Atlantic edge, where a coastline of islands, inlets, and long sea-arms reaches far inland between high mountains. These sea-arms are the fjords: deep channels carved by glaciers over many thousands of years, then filled by the sea when the ice retreated. The result is a landscape of steep rock walls, waterfalls, and small farms set on narrow shelves of green. This is one of the clearest examples anywhere of how ice shapes a country, and it has drawn travellers for well over a century.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">N&#230;r&#248;yfjord, Norway during winter - Shutterstock</figcaption></figure></div><div><hr></div><h2>Around the World</h2><h3>La Corbi&#232;re Lighthouse</h3><p><a href="https://www.jersey.com/things-to-do/attractions/listings/la-corbiere-lighthouse/">Discover the iconic La Corbi&#232;re Lighthouse in Jersey.

The real place has little to do with the vampire stories. For more than 800 years, this was a meeting point of cultures. German-speaking settlers known as the Saxons arrived here in the 12th and 13th centuries, invited by the Hungarian crown to farm the land and defend the frontier. They built stone towns, guild halls, and fortified churches that still stand today. Alongside them lived Hungarians, Romanians, and Roma communities, each leaving a mark on the food, language, and buildings.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link

The south, west and central regions are generally at their best from December to March, when the weather is drier and sunnier. If you&#8217;re planning to visit the north or east, May to August can be a better choice, with warmer conditions and less rain. By considering the different seasonal patterns across the island, you can plan your trip around the places and activities you&#8217;re most interested in.</a></p><div

Fjords</h2><p><a href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords">Western Norway sits along the country&#8217;s Atlantic edge, where a coastline of islands, inlets, and long sea-arms reaches far inland between high mountains. These sea-arms are the fjords: deep channels carved by glaciers over many thousands of years, then filled by the sea when the ice retreated. The result is a landscape of steep rock walls, waterfalls, and small farms set on narrow shelves of green. This is one of the clearest examples anywhere of how ice shapes a country, and it has drawn travellers for well over a century.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/norways-western-fjords&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NebM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39f9eebd-1fb2-431e-84fc-cd35aa8a979f_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">N&#230;r&#248;yfjord, Norway during winter -

The real place has little to do with the vampire stories. For more than 800 years, this was a meeting point of cultures. German-speaking settlers known as the Saxons arrived here in the 12th and 13th centuries, invited by the Hungarian crown to farm the land and defend the frontier. They built stone towns, guild halls, and fortified churches that still stand today. Alongside them lived Hungarians, Romanians, and Roma communities, each leaving a mark on the food, language, and buildings.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link

the country&#8217;s Atlantic edge, where a coastline of islands, inlets, and long sea-arms reaches far inland between high mountains. These sea-arms are the fjords: deep channels carved by glaciers over many thousands of years, then filled by the sea when the ice retreated. The result is a landscape of steep rock walls, waterfalls, and small farms set on narrow shelves of green. This is one of the clearest examples anywhere of how ice shapes a country, and it has drawn travellers for well over a century.</p><p>What makes this region different is the scale and the calm. The water in the inner fjords is often still enough to hold a full reflection of the peaks above. Villages remain small, roads follow the shore rather than cutting across it, and ferries are part of daily life rather than a tourist novelty. Two of the fjords here, the Geirangerfjord and the N&#230;r&#248;yfjord, are listed together as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, recognised as among the finest fjord landscapes in the world. You are looking at working communities inside a protected natural setting, not a theme built for visitors.</p><p>This route suits travellers who prefer depth over distance. The fjords are best understood slowly, from the deck of a boat, the window of a train, or a bench above the water in the evening light. If you like a landscape that asks you to stop and look rather than rush on, western Norway rewards that patience.</p><h3>In This Email:</h3><ul><li><p><strong>Norway&#8217;s Western Fjords - </strong>Below<strong> </strong>you will travel from Bergen, the historic gateway on the coast, inland to the great fjords and up to the art-filled town of &#197;lesund.

The real place has little to do with the vampire stories. For more than 800 years, this was a meeting point of cultures. German-speaking settlers known as the Saxons arrived here in the 12th and 13th centuries, invited by the Hungarian crown to farm the land and defend the frontier. They built stone towns, guild halls, and fortified churches that still stand today. Alongside them lived Hungarians, Romanians, and Roma communities, each leaving a mark on the food, language, and buildings.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/the-slow-route-through-transylvania" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/cf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/the-slow-route-through-transylvania&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">Medieval Hunyad Corvin castle, Hunedoara, Transylvania -

They form part of a mountain chain that stretches from the far north of Canada down to the deserts of the American southwest. What sets this section apart is the way the peaks, glaciers, and lakes sit so close together. You can stand beside a still, turquoise lake in the morning and touch the edge of an ancient glacier by mid-afternoon. Four national parks &#8212; Banff, Jasper, Yoho, and Kootenay &#8212; connect here, and together with three provincial parks they form a UNESCO World Heritage Site.</a></p><div

The real place has little to do with the vampire stories. For more than 800 years, this was a meeting point of cultures. German-speaking settlers known as the Saxons arrived here in the 12th and 13th centuries, invited by the Hungarian crown to farm the land and defend the frontier. They built stone towns, guild halls, and fortified churches that still stand today. Alongside them lived Hungarians, Romanians, and Roma communities, each leaving a mark on the food, language, and buildings.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/the-slow-route-through-transylvania" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/cf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/the-slow-route-through-transylvania&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">Medieval Hunyad Corvin castle, Hunedoara, Transylvania -

They form part of a mountain chain that stretches from the far north of Canada down to the deserts of the American southwest. What sets this section apart is the way the peaks, glaciers, and lakes sit so close together. You can stand beside a still, turquoise lake in the morning and touch the edge of an ancient glacier by mid-afternoon. Four national parks &#8212; Banff, Jasper, Yoho, and Kootenay &#8212; connect here, and together with three provincial parks they form a UNESCO World Heritage Site.</a></p><div

The real place has little to do with the vampire stories. For more than 800 years, this was a meeting point of cultures. German-speaking settlers known as the Saxons arrived here in the 12th and 13th centuries, invited by the Hungarian crown to farm the land and defend the frontier. They built stone towns, guild halls, and fortified churches that still stand today. Alongside them lived Hungarians, Romanians, and Roma communities, each leaving a mark on the food, language, and buildings.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/the-slow-route-through-transylvania" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/cf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/the-slow-route-through-transylvania&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">Medieval Hunyad Corvin castle, Hunedoara, Transylvania -

They form part of a mountain chain that stretches from the far north of Canada down to the deserts of the American southwest. What sets this section apart is the way the peaks, glaciers, and lakes sit so close together. You can stand beside a still, turquoise lake in the morning and touch the edge of an ancient glacier by mid-afternoon. Four national parks &#8212; Banff, Jasper, Yoho, and Kootenay &#8212; connect here, and together with three provincial parks they form a UNESCO World Heritage Site.</a></p><div

The real place has little to do with the vampire stories. For more than 800 years, this was a meeting point of cultures. German-speaking settlers known as the Saxons arrived here in the 12th and 13th centuries, invited by the Hungarian crown to farm the land and defend the frontier. They built stone towns, guild halls, and fortified churches that still stand today. Alongside them lived Hungarians, Romanians, and Roma communities, each leaving a mark on the food, language, and buildings.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/the-slow-route-through-transylvania" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/cf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/the-slow-route-through-transylvania&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">Medieval Hunyad Corvin castle, Hunedoara, Transylvania -

They form part of a mountain chain that stretches from the far north of Canada down to the deserts of the American southwest. What sets this section apart is the way the peaks, glaciers, and lakes sit so close together. You can stand beside a still, turquoise lake in the morning and touch the edge of an ancient glacier by mid-afternoon. Four national parks &#8212; Banff, Jasper, Yoho, and Kootenay &#8212; connect here, and together with three provincial parks they form a UNESCO World Heritage Site.</a></p><div

The real place has little to do with the vampire stories. For more than 800 years, this was a meeting point of cultures. German-speaking settlers known as the Saxons arrived here in the 12th and 13th centuries, invited by the Hungarian crown to farm the land and defend the frontier. They built stone towns, guild halls, and fortified churches that still stand today. Alongside them lived Hungarians, Romanians, and Roma communities, each leaving a mark on the food, language, and buildings.</a></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/the-slow-route-through-transylvania" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png" width="512" height="640" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/cf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:640,&quot;width&quot;:512,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://loveotvisit.substack.com/p/the-slow-route-through-transylvania&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jogm!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf95a6e5-9802-47d3-9c6a-38fd58954b8d_512x640.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">Medieval Hunyad Corvin castle, Hunedoara, Transylvania -

Four national parks &#8212; Banff, Jasper, Yoho, and Kootenay &#8212; connect here, and together with three provincial parks they form a UNESCO World Heritage Site.</a></p><div
