When you're in this part of the world, be sure to take a ferry from Chumphon towards the East Thai islands of Koh Samui, Koh Tao, and Koh Phangan. These islands together all have a little something different to offer so it's worth checking out all three. You can expect to go snorkeling, paddle boarding, suntanning, diving, and plenty of eating and drinking when you're here. Enjoy!

The southern region of Vietnam has a massive bustling city in Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon), and an area lush with jungle vegetation, known as the Mekong Delta.

Lisbon may be considered one of the most romantic cities in Portugal (let alone the world), but did you know you can also surf here too?

The best place in the city to experience the sunset and Uppsala Cathedral is right along the canal at Gotlandsparken.
