My Top 10 picks for diverse and delicious dining and drinking in Estonia's storybook capital city. While the well-preserved medieval Old Town retains loads of history and charm, the former industrial area of Kalamaja fairly thrums with modern action. Mobile bars and food trucks line the waterfront, electric scooters and bikes whiz from one refurbished warehouse to another. A bit further afield, former Soviet-era factories in Telliskivi display colorful new life as a hipster district overflowing with sexy craft breweries, restaurants, and street art. A thriving food scene dominates all neighborhoods and this list could be much, much longer. But, if your time is limited, these are the 10 to NOT MISS! And, whatever you do, do not let anyone talk you into eating at Olde Hansa. This touristy juggernaut may be high on medieval kitsch, but the food is downright mediocre.

An itinerary of 10 action-packed days dining and doing in amazing Oaxaca de Juarez. It includes: 1. Day-by-day top recommendations of places to visit and dining "musts" 2. More than 70 recommended things to do, eat, and see 3. Two detailed road trip guides for Hierve el Agua and San Martin Tilcajete. 4. Notes, insights, videos, photos, and more. Why Oaxaca de Juarez? Colorful and welcoming. Hip yet old world. Infused with the pride of Zapotec culture, yet embracing of modern Mexico’s foodie standards. Oaxaca de Juarez defies easy labels and is all the better for it. With one of the most charming Centros in all of Latin America, Oaxaca is unapologetically itself on every level. Majestic churches, historic buildings, stunning street art, indigenous gardens, massive markets, quirky small museums. . .Oaxaca has them all. Best of all, its undercurrent of edge and counterculture keeps this vibrant town from being too consumed by expat and digital nomad influence. Pretty and vibrant, yes. Blandly beautiful? Never.

This guide includes where to eat and drink, where to stay, what to do, and where to work remotely in Luang Prabang, Laos — a sublime little city on the confluence of the mighty Mekong and Nam Khan rivers. Luang Prabang is a must-visit in your explorations of Southeast Asia. Orange robe-clad monks stroll the streets lined with historic French architecture. Welcome smiles, delicious cuisine, and ancient wats all await you at this UNESCO world heritage destination. With thoughtful new investment from savvy local business owners and French and Swiss expats who were stuck here (and fell in love) during Covid, the town is at a perfect inflection point of old and new. You can sit down to a bowl of soup on the sidewalk, dine at a 5-star hotel, and sip an IPA at a trendy cafe — all within a few blocks of each other. But hurry, Luang Prabang is not too far from the visitor tipping point.
