IN HONG KONG: Getting away from the city at night, yet basking in its nightly glow. Who’s up for taking some nighttime photos?

SCOTTISH HIGHLANDS
This tall. lush, green canopy is a humbling sight. Who wouldn’t ache to experience this hike first hand?
FUN FACT:There have been historical crossings through this area, from the Lowlands to Highlands, since prehistoric times. A common passage is from Mounth (a stretch of mountainous land) which extends outward to the North Sea (north of Stonehaven).

FUN FACT: Norway’s coastline faces the North Atlantic Ocean and the Barents Sea. This coastline is home to Norway’s famous fjords.

BLACK CANYON
Located in Western Colorado, USA, the Black Canyon is 77 kilometres (48 miles) long, and was formed by the flow of the Gunnison river.
FUN FACT: The Gunnison River drops an average 5 metres per kilometre (34 ft/m) through the canyon… which makes it one of the steepest mountain descents on the continent!
