Durban

South African Durban, known as eThekwini in Zulu, has to be one of the continent's most appealing cities, especially after the 2010 World Cup breathed new life into the area by revamping the waterfront; the splendid Moses Mabhida Stadium remains one of Durban's primary attractions to date. Durban moves to the beat of gqom, its own home-grown music genre, which is slowly making its way onto global charts from South Africa's sunny, tropical melting pot of eclectic cultural influences.

Helsinki

Helsinki is where the Baltic laps at granite shores and trams hum through streets lined with bold design and quiet charm. A city shaped by sea, sauna, and surprising contrasts, the Finnish capital balances raw nature with cool, clean modernity. Influences from East and West meet here, but the rhythm is all its own—unhurried, open, and thoughtful. Whether you're here for forests or flea markets, Helsinki has a way of drawing you in, slowly but surely.
