Putting yourself first has never been easier.

“I need a vacation.” When was the last time you uttered those words? With the pressures we all face in everyday life, chances are it wasn’t too long ago. In times like these, a self-care trip is the perfect solution — and, for that, Arizona is ideal. Quick, non-stop and direct flights to one of two international airports put all the wonder of The Grand Canyon State within easy reach.

With more than 325 days a year of sunshine, there’s no better place to lose yourself in some unforgettable outdoor adventure. Hiking, biking, boating, horseback riding, camping and skiing are just a few of the amazing activities to choose from. But here are a few of our very favorite activities.

For centuries people have sought out the mineral-rich waters of Castle Hot Springs for bathing, healing, socializing and spiritual intentions. The unique water is rich in lithium, magnesium and bicarbonates, which help lift your mood, calm your mind and ease aching joints and muscles. Today, this once-remote location is a luxurious, all-encompassing resort experience. Guests enjoy farm-to-table meals, activities such as yoga and meditation, and adventures that include farm tours, guided hikes, archery and e-bikes. But the real star of the show is the mineral hot springs that cascade into three pools of varying warm temperatures. The warm waters are also used to heat the main resort pool and are piped to Spring Bungalows to fill private soaking tubs.

Will paddle for wine? The Water to Wine Kayaking Tour in Sedona is heaven for people who love the outdoors even more when there’s wine involved. This easy, breezy trip takes you by inflatable kayak down a gorgeous scenic stretch of the Verde River, ending at Alcantara Vineyards for an outdoor food and wine-tasting treat.

Sounds relaxing to be sure. But if your idea of an escape includes a healthy dose of adrenaline, Sedona has the off-road adventure of a lifetime. Exclusive to Pink Jeep Tours, the Broken Arrow Tour is as extreme as it gets. For two hours, your Jeep will crawl over and atop Sedona’s iconic red-rock formations covering miles of rugged desert terrain. The ride is a one-of-a-kind way to experience some of the most extraordinary landscapes on the planet.

But why merely explore Sedona by land and water? For a view unlike any other, take to the skies on a balloon adventure. You’ll watch the sunrise over majestic Red Rock Country, enjoying an awe-inspiring 360-degree view of Sedona’s natural wonders.

Plan your escape today.

Homer and Janet by Homer Review

The Marais District, covering swaths of Paris’ 3rd and 4th arrondissments, has a distinctively gritty glamour that reveals it to be one of the city’s great incubators for new French food, fashion and lifestyle trends. It is here Moïse Sfez took on the challenge of creating street food establishments Homer in 2017 and Janet by Homer in 2022, doing it in such a way they both transcend the novelty of being regional American comfort food offered at stylized lunch counters matching up with New England lobster shacks and New York delis. Overwhelming local response and Sfez winning the 2018 Lobster Roll World’s Championship title in Portland, Maine, solidified him as a Paris restaurateur and one of France’s hottest culinary stars.
