One of the most arid regions of Europe, its unique climate offers breathtaking vistas, prickly pear cactus, agave and bright wildflowers, as well as dramatic coral and flourishing marine life. Although it might take a little extra work to get to, (aka: hiking), it sure looks like it may be well worth it. Continue reading →

Isn’t it funny how those lessons never seem to be about math or science, but rather about life? Continue reading →
