Broome

Broome, tucked away in North-Western Australia, is just a quick two and a half-hour flight from Perth. This town brims with colour, culture and stunning scenery. Picture the fiery red ochre cliffs contrasting against the crystal-clear turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. Step back in time with dinosaur footprints that whisper tales from the distant past. The pearling industry, a cornerstone of the local economy, invites you to explore its fascinating history and the exquisite jewellery.

Halmstad

Where the Nissan river meets the sea lies Halmstad — a delightful mix of vibrancy and small-town charm, salty beaches and tranquil fresh waters. Several beaches, besides the well-known Tylösand, line the four-mile coast. The city centre is cosy, where small shops intermingle with a charming café and restaurant scene. Halmstad boasts a varied and rich array of events for all ages, year-round. Art is ever-present, featuring works by, among others, Milles and Picasso. Whoever you are, whatever you want to do, Halmstad has the experience for you.

Moscow

Moscow is a city of contrasts where the bohemian and the glamorous merge in an idiosyncratic fusion – do not be surprised to find a golden-domed 16th-century church next to an ultra-modern glass skyscraper or a Soviet blockhouse. Here, salty fish eggs (caviar) are washed down with bubbly champagne, and worn-out commuters travel by the elaborately decorated, elegant metro, one of the city's main attractions.
