A stunning string of islands with more than 270 miles of coastline, Puerto Rico oozes Caribbean charm, yet it is a mere three- to four-hour flight from most parts of the continental U.S. And since it’s an American territory, you can leave your passport at home. After a rather painless travel day from New York City — avoiding the lines at customs, no jet lag to worry about, and getting a window seat on my flight — I finally touched down in the coastal city of San Juan, Puerto Rico’s most populous and widely visited destination....

If there’s one thing I’ll never travel without, it’s my backpack.

When ‘Mixed-ish’ star Tika Sumpter was pregnant with her daughter Ella three years ago, she combed the Internet for resources for moms and to find other people who were experiencing what she was feeling. “But I didn’t see faces that looked like me,” she explained at BlogHer’s Parenting conference last Friday.

Before even exiting our car at Jumeirah Bali, the newest beach resort on Indonesia’s famed Island of Gods, I felt special. The welcome party waiting at the end of a promenade of endless arches, columns, and flowing water — not to mention the chilled passion fruits atop crushed ice in gilded bowls — seemed poised for the arrival of royalty. And that, as I discovered over a weekend visit, is precisely the point....

By now, we’re all familiar with various home remedies and all-natural cures that our grandmothers swore by — that special brand of tea for congestion, salt water rinses or chamomile for tooth aches, fish or caster oil for everything.

The Balearic Islands, a sun-kissed archipelago of islands and islets east of the Spanish mainland, are dominated by four stunning sisters: Mallorca, Ibiza, Menorca, and Formentera. Ibiza, the party-loving wild child of the bunch, has a shy side too, by way of hillside hamlets and a storied old town. Mallorca, the largest of the islands, offers contrasting pleasures like all-inclusive resorts and laidback, nature-oriented getaways. Menorca, a haven for the low-key traveler, entices visitors with its archeological wonders and a bevy of postcard-perfect beaches....

One thing we fantasize about after we see that first flurry is that the eggnog will undoubtedly be in stock again at our local grocery stores.
