They told us to avoid this Johannesburg neighborhood (we loved it)

After 3 years exploring the Americas, Europe and Asia, we just arrived in Africa for the first time. And even though we’re spending our entire 18-day trip in the country of South Africa, we really wanna get a taste of the cultures that span the continent. So to kick things off, we’re leaving Melrose Arch—one of the nicest neighborhoods in Johannesburg—and heading to Yeoville—one of the poorest. It may be notorious for its high levels of crime and poverty, but it also boasts a diverse pan-African culture that’ll provide an eclectic backdrop to our first real experience in the city.

Why San Miguel de Allende restaurants are the melting pot of Mexico

We’re still here in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, the hotspot that Travel and Leisure calls the best city in the world. Today, we’re taking you on a tour of some of the city’s top eateries.

So, to truly experience the flavor of SMA means embracing the varied cuisines that help put this city on the global culinary map.

Devouring Singapore—from Hawker Centers to Michelin Stars

Singapore is a relatively young city-state that’s about 74% Chinese, 14% Malay, and 9% Indian. That means they have no single official language and very little in the way of official national symbols. But because the culture of this area goes back at least a thousand years, the one thing you’ll find that is purely Singaporean is its food. And our family is out to sample the full range, from authentic food stalls to Michelin starred dishes.
