I went to Yellowstone in 2019. It’s such a beautiful place, and I’ve been inside that inn. It’s stunning inside and out — truly a treasure.

Can we talk about these Italian mountain huts? Val d’Aosta has nearly ten of them — including Rifugio Capanna Regina Margherita, that opened in 1893. One is perched 9,300 feet above the Frebouze Glacier, shaped like an airplane fuselage with porthole windows. I would love to sit there & watch the sunrise shadow the beauty of those mountain peaks. Dwell magazine calls this new wave of alpine design:

“the most fertile period in backcountry hut design since the invention of hiking.”

I believe it.

Reykjavík just got named the safest city in the world. Low crime, stunning landscapes, and you can walk around at any hour without worry. Add in the Northern Lights and hot springs? Yeah, this one’s going on my bucket list. Iceland, I’m coming for you one day.
