It’s time to start dreaming of your next trip. Here’s some destination inspiration for you. Take a visual journey through Strasbourg, France, with us.
The Grande Île de Strasbourg is an island in the historic city center of Strasbourg and, along with Petite France (a historic district in the city), is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and home to Notre-Dame de Strasbourg cathedral; Saint-Thomas church (dating back to the ninth century); Place Kléber, the city’s main square; and Kammerzell house, a 16th-century, timbered Alsatian house. Take a boat tour around the island to see other major sites. © Madrabothair | Dreamstime.com
The 17th-century Parc de l'Orangerie is a peaceful sanctuary within the city, complete with a boating lake, terrace restaurant, gazebo and flower gardens. Spot works of art along pathways, and don’t miss Joséphine Pavilion, dedicated to the wife of Napoleon Bonaparte. © Xbrchx | Dreamstime.com
Dating back to 1439, Strasbourg Cathedral (also known as Cathedral of Our Lady of Strasbourg) is one of the finest examples of Rayonnant Gothic architecture. On the site of a Roman settlement, the church today is a focal point in the city. Come winter, a massive Christmas market hits the square, with the cathedral towering over festive stalls. © Alexandrebes | Dreamstime.com
The largest city and cultural capital of Alsace, you’ll find many unique buildings of traditional Alsatian architecture. Half-timbered façades, steep roofs, bright colors and diamond-shaped windows are some of the characteristics of these historic structures. The 15th-century Kammerzell House is one of the best examples of these houses, and is now a restaurant. © Sorin Colac | Dreamstime.com
Vauban Dam is a bridge, weir and defensive structure first erected in the 17th century to protect the city in the event of an attack. Today, you can walk across and climb to a viewing terrace to catch great views of the river and city. After, head to nearby Strasbourg Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, adjacent to the northern end of the barrage. © Olrat | Dreamstime.com
Indulge in a kugelhopf, an Alsatian brioche, at any number of bakeries across the city. This traditional bread/cake isn’t overly sweet and typically features almonds on top of its distinctive shape. Buttery and warm, it’s the perfect accompaniment to stroll around the city. © Delamontstudio | Dreamstime.com
Attracting nearly 2 million visitors annually, Christkindelsmärik is one of the oldest Christmas markets in Europe. Since 1570, this popular market features a 98-foot Christmas tree and a wide range of stalls selling food, drinks and craft items. © Hai Huy Ton That | Dreamstime.com

May 27, 2025Plan a Legendary Gathering in Honolulu
Myths and origin stories form a powerful framework for the history of Hawai‘i. Marking the horizon behind Honolulu, the ancient volcanic formation of Lē‘ahi — technically a volcanic tuff cone more commonly known to the world as Diamond Head — provides a constant physical reminder of the tales that shaped the history of this location. While researching legends for my Hawai‘i-based Dark Paradise Mysteries series (Kensington Books), I learned the tale of the demigod Maui, who used his enchanted fishing hook to reach into the sea to heave the Hawaiian islands, including Diamond Head, above the surface of the water.

May 23, 2025Relax, Rejuvenate and Heal at StolenTime
At the namesake luxury, 5-star all-inclusive resort in Saint Lucia, the concept of “stolen time” used to be reserved for couples escaping to canoodle, reconnect and perhaps rekindle in sumptuous accommodations during a romantic getaway on the lush Caribbean island. But when StolenTime by Rendezvous rebranded in late 2022 to welcome all adult guests and focus more on wellness, the philosophy expanded to encompass self-reflection, personal growth and enrichment. After all, time is our most precious commodity, one that’s finite and too quickly slips through our grasp; we need to find those moments that matter and make them count.
