Mozambique, stretching along the southeast coast of Africa, is a country celebrated for its long Indian Ocean shoreline, colorful traditions, and layered history. The country’s coastline is among its greatest treasures.
Fujairah stands apart among the emirates as the only one on the UAE’s eastern shore, where waves roll in from the Gulf of Oman and the Hajar Mountains rise sharply behind the city. Life here moves between sea and mountain, where coastal breeze meets rugged terrain, and echoes of ancient trade routes still shape the rhythm of settlements.
Ballachulish is a small village in the Scottish Highlands, set at the mouth of the River Laroch beside the narrow waters of Loch Leven. The surrounding landscape includes steep mountains, wooded slopes, rocky shorelines, and the broad valley of nearby Glencoe. The village is divided into several settlements, including North Ballachulish, South Ballachulish, and Ballachulish itself, giving the area a distinctive layout shaped by the loch.
Majete Wildlife Reserve is a protected area in southern Malawi, located in the Lower Shire Valley west of the Shire River. Its landscape includes miombo woodland, dry savanna, rocky hills, seasonal streams, and riverine vegetation along the Shire and Mkulumadzi rivers.
Jellyfish Lake is a shadowed oasis hidden among the mushroom-like Rock Islands of Palau. This forest‑fringed saltwater lake invites visitors to float with millions of gentle, stingless jellyfish that glow like drifting amber clouds under emerald light. The lake formed about 12,000 years ago, when rising seas flooded an ancient reef basin that was gradually cut off from the ocean. Over centuries, its jellyfish evolved in isolation, shedding their stings and multiplying without predators in sight.
Indonesia, the world’s largest archipelago, stretches across more than 17,000 islands, each offering its own cultural traditions, landscapes, and experiences. From volcanic peaks to tropical beaches and ancient temples, the country is as diverse as it is expansive.

Lamu is a place of fantasy and other-worldliness wrapped in a cloak of medieval romance. With an almost exclusively Muslim population, Kenya's oldest living town has changed little in appearance or character over the centuries. Remote and self-contained, this once thriving port town is now a gloriously relaxed and relaxing destination. No other Swahili town, other than Zanzibar, can offer you such a cultural feast and uncorrupted traditional style of architecture - if you can ignore the TV aerials. A couple of hours spent in the waterfront Lamu Museum is an excellent introduction to the town's culture and history. And if the museum stokes your interest in Swahili culture then you should also check out the beautifully restored building nearby housing the Swahili House Museum. One of Lamu's quirkier attractions is the Donkey Sanctuary - no doubt a haven for all those donkeys seeking political asylum. Taking a trip by dhow is almost obligatory.
