Backpacking combines hiking, camping, and sightseeing into one activity. The idea is that you pack up all of your essential items, then embark on an on-foot journey of epic proportions. You can certainly bring your devices with you, but backpacking is all about reducing your screen time, not increasing it. A lot of veteran backpackers trek through mountains and forests. However, pedestrian-friendly cities with wide streets and rolling hills will also do nicely. 

Athens, Greece certainly fits that bill.

The Cross Border Xpress, or CBX, is the most convenient way to fly into Mexico from Southern California.

This 390-foot walkway takes fliers from San Diego directly into the Tijuana airport. From there, get through customs first before your flight. This allows the opportunity to deboard and leave the airport immediately once you land at your destination.

Located just eight miles from LAX and 13 miles from Downtown LA, Santa Monica offers an entire lifetime’s worth of experiences with various attractions, shops, restaurants, and events. But with so many options to choose from, how do you know you're making the right choice?

Let's talk about 10 things you can do to make the most of your Santa Monica adventure.

I was nervous the first time I sat down to try out a bike from Pedego. I’d never ridden an electric bike before, and I hardly even ride bikes at all anymore. Regardless, you can never pass up an opportunity to ride around the harbor area of San Diego.

The nerves disappeared quickly as I rode away. The throttle is easy to use and the ride just as smooth as promised.

The Element Bend was among the nicest hotels I’ve ever had the pleasure of staying. And for only being open five weeks at the time of my stay, I think it’s only a matter of time before they become one of the most sold-out hotels in Bend.

The moment the sliding doors opened into the expansive and welcoming lobby, a friendly receptionist gave me a genuinely warm welcome.

Anyone who loves anything outdoors should never sleep on an opportunity to explore Southern Oregon. I have visited my family in Medford many a time. However, every trip was usually for a birthday or a holiday. I hardly ever had time to actually go out and explore.

Well, a recent change in life events has given me the opportunity to spend some time here and do some proper exploring.

Do you want wide, open skies and mountains that put even New Zealand to shame? Move Montana to the top of your must-go places. Why, you may ask? Because it will be one of the most serene experiences you’ll ever have…

Personally, I always thought the only thing good about Idaho was the potatoes. After teaching Josh about the license plate game, however, I noticed something interesting about Idaho's: Beneath the letters and numbers for Idaho’s license plate, it very clearly states, “Famous Potatoes,” just as I thought. Above the letters, however, a little word is painted in cursive about the Idaho identifier: Scenic.

What would you do if ghosts told you to never stop adding on to your house? What if your life depended on following their orders? In the late 1800’s and early 1900’s, Sarah Pardee Winchester faced those very questions. The result of her fear has captured skeptics, believers, and tourists alike in the enigmatic presence that has become the Winchester Mystery House.

Yes, planning a trip is exhausting enough as it is. Yes, the prospect of bringing your fur baby may not seem worth it. It also, however, might be worth a second look. There are plenty of resources online to help you find dog-friendly accommodations, parks, hikes, even restaurants in whatever area you’re in, or wherever you’re going. Stressed out about how to find those locations? I got your back.

I always do my best to encourage people to travel their own countries.That advice, however, marks me a hypocrite.I’ve seen about six states but stepped foot in nine (layover flights and whatnot), but any prospect of seeing all 50 was always low on my bucket list.Until now.

A visa could be the final ticket you need to get you where you’re going.If you're traveling in your own country, you don't need to worry about this. Likewise, depending on the country you’re visiting and the length of your stay, the visa may or may not be required.

Hidden inside of New Zealand’s South Island lies the majestic and dramatic landscapes of Milford Sound.

Few who witness its glory leave unchanged. You can never catch Milford on a bad day, either; gloomy weather only enhances the jagged carvings of the mountainside.

Known for its extensive and interactive aquarium on the iconic Cannery Row, Monterey has a steady supply of options for all travelers, from whale watching to the eye-opening 17-Mile Drive.But what is a pit stop without good grub?If you're in town and your stomach starts to grumble, the following restaurants will satisfy your every craving:

The Browns stayed one night before abandoning their home. According to legend, the tin made loud noises with the fluctuating temperatures, and the result wasn’t ideal.
