Morocco – Chefchaouen

Morocco is a heaven for travelers, from the highest peak of the Atlas Mountains, to the glimmering sandy dunes of the deserts to the sun-kissed sandy beaches.

Chefchaouen in Morocco is a favorite destination for many travelers located at the foot of the striking peaks of the Rif Mountains. Its old Medina and bright red rooftops influenced by the Andalucía culture bring out the pretty picture of this Moroccan town.

You can have fun trekking the 1616 meters of Jebel El Kelaa, savor the magnificent flora and fauna of this treacherous hill and keep yourself in shape after filling your stomach with tajni and couscous at any one of the many restaurants overlooking Plaza uta-el Hammam.

Visit the Talassemtane National park where you experience the local culture fast hand as you live in the traditional rural houses and interact with the locals.

Feast you eyes on the amazing ruined mosque abandoned in 1920s after the Rif war, the sight is gorgeous and can serve as a great picnic site.

Bhutan 

Bhutan is a perfect place and a great excuse to escape the UK, also known as the Land of Thunder Dragon. A tour of Bhutan full of unexpected surprises, not only do you pay a minimum of 200US dollars a day if you smoke, but no cigarette will be sold to you. The rice is red and chilies are not only spices but are served as meals! Culture and traditions will shock you, in particular getting to see huge penises on the walls of houses as a symbol of protection, now think about that!

The Bumthang region is full of Buddhist temples that will amaze you, visit the age old monasteries of Jaka Dzong, Lamey Goemba and experience the mysteries of the Wangdichholing Palace. You can take part in the vibrant festivals held in Bumthang as you mingle with these amazing people, the Tibetian style culture will blow your mind.

After a long day trekking in the lush greens and sight-seeing you can unwind in any of the Yoga centers and just take one or two lessons of Yoga from the masters.
