India: Varanasi

Cuba

The streets of Havana buzz with music and dancing feet, and the rum flows along the footsteps of Hemingway. The classic cars, the colonial buildings, the likeness of Che and Fidel, they’re all there. Outside the city, tobacco farmers roll fresh cigars amongst the rolling green karsts in the Vinales valley, adding to the enticement and allure of a country quite unlike any other. andyanajones.com IG: andy_anajones

Namibia, Part 2: Sossusvlei

Namibia, located in southwest Africa, is the ideal place for a roadtrip of the adventurous sort. Home to the world’s oldest desert, Namibia is a desolate paradise, where you’ll find more wild animals than people, more gravel roads than paved, and more than your fair share of other-worldly haunts. Bring a spare tire.  Part 2 of 2 andyanajones.com IG: andy_anajones

India: Varanasi

Varanasi is all of India rolled into one, tightly confined, riverfront crematory and pilgrimage site. Any and all sights, smells, sounds, and tastes can be experienced within the maze of alleys and riverside ghats that serve as both burial grounds and ritual cleansing locales. The experience of Varanasi is both holy...and heavy. Jump in.  andyanajones.com IG: andy_anajones

Everest, Part 2: Gokyo

Getting to Everest base camp requires nerves of steel from the start, as your 10-seater plane lands on a runway precariously perched at the edge of a cliff. Once on land, there are no roads for days in all directions, only yaks, sherpas, and a steep climb. The rewards? Endless peaks, heavenly lakes, comfy teahouses, and a sense of high altitude accomplishment. Let’s Hike.
