WELCOME TO WINTER

Winter always brings out the best in travelers. However, it’s often for distinctly different reasons. For snowbirds up north, this is the time of year when they fly south for their annual vacations to sun-drenched beaches in order to get their winter tans. Sipping pina coladas pool-side never gets old. On the other hand, winter for snow enthusiasts means adrenalin-filled ski trips to the world’s most luxurious “high altitude” resorts. Swooshing down a snow-covered mountain is their idea of the ideal getaway, and they will go to great lengths to find the perfect powder. It also is an exciting time from a personal perspective, as this issue happens to be my maiden voyage as editor of Food and Travel Magazine. I am thrilled to be part of such a highly…

Tasting Through The Finger Lakes

A quintessential four-season playground, the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York is home to 9,000 square miles packed with wine, water, outdoor adventure, history and culture. From gushing waterfalls and gorges to over 16,000 acres of forest lands, this area serves as a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. Perhaps most widely known for its prolific wine production, the region’s more than 120 vineyards offer distinctive flavors and proprietary features that please even the most discerning palates. The terroir of the Finger Lakes is special because the microclimate created by the lakes produces warm, breezy days during the summer which can ripen the grapes. Other quality factors include vineyards that slope down to deep, glaciated lakes, providing favorable soils for the growth of premium vinifera wine grapes. Despite the fact that…

ST. LANDRY PARISH, LOUISIANA

In St. Landry Parish, Louisiana, Mardi Gras is not your typical festival with congested crowds, beads, and doubloons. At certain festivities, these trinkets are rarely in sight.

Still, different cultures within the parish celebrate Mardi Gras in their own unique way, establishing their own traditions. In Opelousas, Grand Coteau, and Sunset a range of events take place including parades and zydeco dances. No blues here, just the upbeat sounds of accordions and fiddles coming from local zydeco musicians.

WHERE THE MOUNTAINS MEET THE MEDITERRANEAN

Four and a half hours away from the hustle and bustle of Athens, towards the southern tip of Greece, lies the rugged Mani Peninsula. Surrounded by mountains, the narrow, winding roads ringed by precipitous drops stretching out to the Mediterranean Sea, I was by turns awed yet admittedly a bit intimidated by the jagged yet strangely beautiful topography as I looked out the window of the car. This stop was the first stop in a journey that would ultimately lead back to Athens. The adventurous ride was worth it in the end when I reached the destination, the Porto Kale Guesthouse. An intimate, stone lodging resembling a small castle tucked away on a quiet beach inlet in the village of Porto Kagio, Porto Kale offers a peaceful oasis for visitors.…

Today, a multitude of artists have invaded this passage. Visitors can still visit the communes that, years ago, were inhabited by several families who shared common spaces, now transformed into markets…
