There’s nothing quite like leaves changing colors in the height of autumn. The short window when fall colors are at their peak is coveted for seasonal travel and roadtrips through parts of the US such as Acadia National Park, the Great Lakes, and the Blue Ridge Mountains. It’s the time of year when we trade cozy knits for beach towels, and warm apple cider for lemonade. The time of year when the sun sets earlier, so that s’mores around the bonfire are an after-dinner treat rather than a late-night snack. The sweet smell of leaves on the ground permeates the air alongside the warm spices from freshly baked goods. It’s one of the best times of year to slow down and soak in every moment, especially since it feels like the shortest of all seasons. 

While summer temperatures are still plaguing the better part of the northern hemisphere, it’s never too early to think about a fall getaway. Crisp weather leads to cozy adventures, no matter the destination. From the historic streets of Innsbruck and Mexico City to the peaceful quiet of the Oregon coast and waves of Maui, we’ve put together a list of places across the globe to look forward to visiting this coming season. But honestly, any of these spots make for a memorable trip regardless of the time of year. Start planning, and get ready to take off…

Reading retreats are taking the internet by storm recently, with trends being reported by the New York Post, Conde Nast Traveler, and beyond.

As fellow book lovers, we can’t help but jump on this trend and share a list destinations perfect for a “book-cation” (has that been copyrighted yet?) as well as suggestions for what you should read while on it.
