Turin Ski Region

“El diau, el diau!” “The devil! The devil!” It was in 1897 when mountain people from Sauze d’Oulx witnessed a red-faced man with a long white beard descending from the slopes, with long wooden skis attached to his feet. He was a Swiss engineer, Adolf Kind, and wooden skis were then first seen in Italy. Today there are more than a hundred ski-lifts and 1,500 km of slopes for all levels – as well as alpine skiing, sledges and huskies, telemark skiing and snowboarding.

Liberia, Costa Rica

Liberia may fly under the radar, but it’s the heart of Guanacaste—both a gateway to Costa Rica’s wild northwest and a place with a rhythm of its own. With sun-drenched streets, colonial buildings, and easy access to beaches, volcanoes, and national parks, it draws travellers looking for more than just a pretty view. This is where the adventure often begins—and where everyday Costa Rican life quietly unfolds.

Agadir

With approximately 340 days of sunshine a year and six kilometres of soft white-sand beaches, Agadir is Morocco’s premiere beach resort. Nestled among the verdant valleys of the Great Souss and with the majestic Anti-Atlas mountain range rearing up behind it, this modern, cosmopolitan city has all the attendant pleasures, thrills and luxuries you could ask for.

Zell am See - Kaprun

Glacier, mountains and the lake – The region of alpine sights Zell am See-Kaprun is right in the heart of Austria. There is no other destination that offers so many spectacular places for excursions and alpine sights located as close together. Mighty mountains, mellow pastures, the glistening expanse of Lake Zell, the eternal ice of the Kitzsteinhorn glacier and the untamed forces of nature. The region offers a wide choice of activities, entertaining family fun, tranquil scenery as well as culinary and cultural discoveries.

Le Cap d'Agde Méditerranée, France

Autumn and winter colours

Discover the destination with all the gorgeous colours of autumn, it is also a place worth discovering.

Graz

Graz – Austria’s culinary and cultural capital. A practical tip from the start: If you want to explore Graz, wear comfortable shoes and loose clothing. Why? Even if Graz is actually small — the second-largest city in Austria with a quarter of a million resident by no means a “big city” — you should be prepared for the fact that time also flies in the many short lanes. Comfortable footwear goes easy on busy feet here. In the historic old town with its roads, streets, squares and courtyards there’s lots to explore and even more to enjoy.

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.

Mallorca

As well as being a very popular destination for sun worshippers with a love for cocktails and clubbing, this Balearic jewel has a long and rich history, breathtaking landscapes, and an irresistible charm. Mallorca’s beaches; however, with their golden sands and crystalline waters, remain the island’s biggest draw.
