Jason Momoa is usually splashed across our screens as Aquaman, but his latest venture is a little closer to home than the DC Universe. On the Roam, a new eight-part docuseries streaming on Max, sees the Hollywood actor travel across the US on his motorcycle—making stops to meet with homegrown artisans and craftsmen, many of whom are his friends and mentors, along the way.

One silver lining of the COVID pandemic for the travel industry was that it gave many hotels the opportunity to take a break, rethink things, and take on renovation projects that might have otherwise been impossible when open and doing business as usual. As a result, a rash of “better than ever” re-openings have occurred the past two years, and in 2023 I was fortunate enough to visit several top tier Forbes 4 and 5-Star hotels and resorts that had finished or were wrapping up massive upgrades or expansions.
