I was 24 hours into a two week adventure cruise to Greenland when I finally gave up trying to connect to the spotty Wi-Fi. My out-of-office reply was on, my editors knew I was away—but the idea of being fully disconnected set my teeth on edge. I’d known there would be limited connection sailing across the Denmark Strait with Hurtigruten, but I hadn’t prepared my mind for a complete digital blackout. It took me a few days to let go of my email and, admittedly, my Instagram. I was traveling with my son Vijay who, at 12 years old, didn’t yet own a cell phone; so the only digital addict in our duo was me.
By 2 a.m. we were happily lost again. Dimly illuminated arches and doorways reflected off the green canal waters. My daughter, Vivian, 16, and I were on a lion hunt in Venice, an annual occurrence for six years now.

There are no two ways about it: Europe is the world's most beloved region.Romantic, historic, safe and filled with delectable food & drink delights, Europe has been casting a spell on travelers since the invention of international travel.

Known as the "Danish Capital of America," Solvang's cuisine and architecture have turned it into a popular tourist destination.
When Helga Crane, the main character in Nella Larsen’s novel “Quicksand,” walked through the streets of Copenhagen, people were amazed. “Her dark, alien appearance was to most people an astonishment,” wrote Larsen, an acclaimed Harlem Renaissance author. “Some stared surreptitiously, some openly, and some stopped dead in front of her in order more fully to profit by their stares.”
As the end of the year approaches, thoughts begin to turn to plans for next summer and a welcome getaway to another country. Travelling by ferry is a popular option, with the European ferry sector transporting some 794 million passengers a year.
In 1999, my husband and I left our consulting gigs in Palo Alto, CA, rented our home, and took off on an international self-designed sabbatical .
If evil villains skied, this cliffhanging lair in Switzerland’s Canton Valais would top their bucket list. From the outside, the new exclusive-use, three-bedroom property opening Dec. 15 looks more like a gondola station than it does a luxury chalet. The geometric fortress of concrete, galvanized steel, chimneys and solar panels sits solitary on a rocky ridge atop the ancient Tortin Glacier at an elevation of 9,500 feet. Its cantilevered glass windows reflect the surrounding pink alpenglow and bluebird skies that the 4 Vallées Ski area — Switzerland’s largest, including Verbier — is known for. Inside, the mind-clearing Scandinavian minimalism of the Norwegian architect Snorre Stinessen focuses on the elements with a blond wood grain ceiling, sauna and log fireplace. The ski-in, ski-out accessibility is off-piste, ensuring discreet and quick getaways. But fear not: Dog sleds and caterpillar-tracked buggies for those less active can be arranged by the staff, as can wine-pairing meals, massages and an emergency oxygen supply, just in case the plan for world domination fails.

The Danish brand Vipp was founded in 1939 with a single design: a waste bin. In the decades since, its product line has expanded to include a full furniture range, lighting and home accessories. In 2014, Vipp opened its first guesthouse, a contemporary prefab cabin near Lake Immeln, in southern Sweden. It now runs nine vacation rentals in Europe and, as of today, is taking reservations for its first in North America, a five-bedroom home in Todos Santos on the Pacific Coast of Mexico’s Baja California peninsula. Sofie Christensen Egelund, the third generation co-owner of Vipp, was introduced to the region by the Mexico City-based architect Pablo Pérez Palacios, who’s behind the property’s design. The 3,800-square-foot home has a rooftop pool and open interiors that highlight natural materials: The walls are made of rammed earth, while window shutters are woven from branches of the local Palo de Arco tree. Furnishings include some of Vipp’s own pieces as well as the brand’s signature kitchen, a modular system with minimalist hardware. Pérez Palacios sees the final space as “an ongoing dialogue between Mexican and Danish design sensibilities.”
