New Zealand's rich Maori culture, evident in its art, language, and traditions, adds a unique cultural dimension to the country. Known for its adventure sports, world-class wine regions, and the setting for the "Lord of the Rings" films, New Zealand offers a blend of natural beauty and cultural richness, making it a captivating destination for travelers.

A blockbuster combination of sublime landscapes that will make you feel like you're on another planet, some of the best wildlife viewing on the continent, a host of fascinating desert-adapted plants and animals, and jaw-dropping natural wonders make Namibia a country you'll never forget.

Tanzania is home to many of the best and biggest parks in Africa, and some of the most varied and unique landscapes that you'll ever see. From grasslands to woodlands, rock formations, and mountain peaks, there's no question that Tanzania features some amazing opportunities for sightseeing, and photo-hunting alike.

Portugal is easily one of the most rewarding travel destinations in Europe, with cosmopolitan cities, quaint villages, wine country, pristine forests – and not to forget, miles of picturesque coastline. While, Madrid is Spain's capital city and home to some impressive architecture, world-renowned museums and stunning outdoor plazas, including Cibeles.

"I remember reading a post online that discouraged Black women from traveling solo."

This post sparked something in Cole Banks , a Black woman who frequently traveled around the world solo. And with that, Sisters Traveling Solo ™  was born.

Culinary Tour

Offered through our Virtuoso partner Access Culinary Trips, our Italy culinary tour is ideal for those wishing to discover authentic Italy through meaningful connections with the locals and unique, hand-curated activities. Unlike some Italy tours, we go beyond the traditional highlights of Tuscany, using our insider access to give you a glimpse into the real Italy. Our signature cooking classes, incredible guides, and charming accommodations will allow you to enjoy the must-see sights of Tuscany along with exclusive experiences you won’t find anywhere else.

All of our  culinary vacations  include a rich combination of delicious ingredients: expert cooking classes, visits to flourishing farms and vibrant markets, and world-class cuisine!

Cruise Experiences

Experience the luxury of our Virtuoso partner Azamara small ships, who's motto is "Explore Further" with the unparalleled itineraries, immersive cultures, and authentic service. The initial layers of a city, including its people, buildings, and shops - can be seen by anyone, with each person having a similar view. Inspiration is found when one goes deeper - beyond the surface of a city. Explore the world within the world, while discovering more about yourself. With overnight stays and docking at smaller, less-traveled ports, Azamara® invites you to step ashore as an insider and Explore Further.

Destination Immersion® experiences are only the beginning, and Azamara is excited to introduce the next level of immersive experiential travel.

This new collection of excursions and activities from independent, local tour operators will take you deeper into the heart of local life with exclusive events and activities, all focused around immersing you in the arts, culture, history, and natural beauty of your destinations.

We give you more time in ports and overnight stays than other cruise lines, so you can spend more time immersed in the culture, cuisine, scenery, and people of your destinations. We also take you to ports where larger ships won’t fit, such as the heart of Venice, Amalfi, and Crete, or even to the doorstep of Bangkok (while other large cruise lines dock a few hours away). More time to explore? It’s the Azamara difference.

So much more than just a way to get from port to port, we’ve crafted an onboard experience akin to a stay in the world’s most exclusive hotels. Our ships—Azamara Journey® and Azamara Quest®—have been completely redesigned to exude modern elegance and bring inspiration from the world onboard, a vision we incorporated again with the Azamara PursuitSM.

Adventure Travel

Why travel actively? Freedom... discovery... energy... inspiration... engagement... serendipity. These are some of the words clients use to describe why they love exploring by bike and on foot with our Virtuoso partner Backroads.

Active travel is about journeying through a fascinating region under your own power. On foot and on a bike, you can really get a visceral sense of place. Without any filters, you're free to truly be where you are. The wind in your face. The sun on your back. Reconnecting with yourself and others. The feeling that right now, and for the next few days, you control your own destiny. And always just ahead, the next unexpected moment you'll carry with you forever: a ruined castle shrouded in mist as the sun appears over the mountains... a flock of birds rising in a shimmering cloud from a vast river delta... a waiter lighting lamps on the café tables, saluting the village priest as he climbs the cathedral steps...

For nearly 40 years, Backroads has been setting the stage for moments like these in every corner of the globe—raising the bar that all such travel should aspire to. And while it may sound like boasting, we don't think anyone does it better.

Wellness Travelled is a blog that inspires people to not just be “well-travelled” but to travel well.

Our Mission

Our mission is to empower people to make thoughtful decisions that are kind to themselves and the planet. Whether it’s promoting ethical animal tourism, eco-friendly hotels, plant-based restaurants, spas, or zero waste travel products, Wellness Travelled can give you the tools you need to be more environmentally and health conscious.

The Founders

The founders, Christine and Sarah, are sisters, best friends, business partners, and the ultimate travel buddies. They both share a unique passion not just for traveling, but using their precious time away from work to enrich their lives in a positive way….from learning to scuba dive – to practicing yoga by the oceanside – to volunteering at a local animal sanctuary… and who knows what’s next.

Christine MacLean

Co-Founder and Creative Director

Christine boasts a decade of experience in marketing and advertising with Toronto’s premier ad agencies. Yet, her zeal for healthy living and community service guided her to content creation at the renowned SickKids Foundation.

Now, she channels her enthusiasm into her venture, Wellness Travelled, relishing her new role as a full-time entrepreneur. Every day, she’s driven to inspire and equip individuals to adopt a healthier lifestyle, both locally and during travels.

A few tidbits about Christine: she’s a night school-trained holistic nutritionist (RHN), and an aficionado of yoga, paddle boarding, and scuba diving.

Sarah MacLean

Co-Founder and Travel Agent

After graduating from university, Sarah faced a crossroads: dive into a career or chase her travel dreams. Her sister’s sage advice introduced a third path – combining both passions by becoming a travel agent. Thriving in this role, Sarah explored 35 countries and became a top sales consultant at Flight Centre in Canada.

However, the pandemic paused her travels. Seizing this interlude, Sarah pivoted to content creation. With her entrepreneurial spirit, honed from two years as an independent travel agent, she founded Wellness Travelled. Her mission? Educating travelers on maximizing their experiences while emphasizing sustainability and well-being for all involved.

Russia's Nuclear Deterrent Command Center Imperiled by Winter Freeze—Report

A Russian nuclear deterrent command center in Moscow has been imperiled by power outages that have impacted more than one-quarter of the region's cities amid freezing temperatures, a Russian Telegram channel has reported.

The VChK-OGPU outlet, which purports to have inside information from Russian security forces, reported that the 820th Main Center for Missile Attack Warnings—part of the Russian Space Forces, a branch of the country's Aerospace Forces—near Solnechnogorsk in Moscow is without power.

It serves as the space forces early warning network against potential ballistic missile attacks.

The development comes as Russians are reported to be suffering from power outages in their homes in the Moscow region caused by technical issues at plants amid subzero temperatures.

On January 4, a heating main burst at the Klimovsk Specialized Ammunition Plant in the town of Podolsk, which is about 30 miles south of central Moscow. Since then, tens of thousands of Russians are reported to have no heating in their homes.

Affected areas include the cities of Khimki, Balashikha, Lobnya, Lyubertsy, Podolsk, Chekhov and Naro-Fominsk, a map published by a Russian Telegram channel and shared on other social media sites shows.

Other Russian media outlets reported that in Moscow, residents of Balashikha, Elektrostal, Solnechnogorsk, Dmitrov, Domodedovo, Troitsk, Taldom, Orekhovo-Zuyevo, Krasnogorsk, Pushkino, Ramenskoye, Voskresensk, Losino-Petrovsky and Selyatino are also without power.

The Telegram channel said that at the 820th Main Center for Missile Attack Warnings, "the crew...is on duty around the clock."

"It is here that the decision on a retaliatory nuclear strike is executed," the channel said.

Newsweek could not independently verify the report and has reached out to the Russian Defense Ministry by email for comment.

Power outages have also been reported in Russia's second-largest city, St. Petersburg, in the country's western Voronezh region, in the southwest city of Volgograd, and in Rostov, which borders Ukraine, a country that Russia has been at war with since February 24, 2022.

On Sunday, two shopping malls in St. Petersburg were forced to close because of problems with light and heating, reported local news outlet 78.ru. Hundreds of other homes in the city have had no electricity, water or heating for days amid temperatures of -25 C (-13 F).

Russian authorities have also been forced to compensate passengers of a train that ran from Samara to St. Petersburg (a 20-hour journey) without heating during -30 C (-22 F) temperatures. Videos circulating on social media showed carriage windows frozen over. A passenger also said the toilet didn't work during the trip because of frozen pipes.
