Vesteralen
Vesteralen is a coastal archipelago in northern Norway, located just north of the Lofoten Islands, known for its wide-open landscapes, dramatic skies, and strong ties to the sea. Historically shaped by fishing and seafaring, the region’s communities developed around sheltered harbors and seasonal fisheries, particularly for cod.
Passau
Passau sits on the confluence of the Danube, the Inn and the Ilz, so it is fitting that it is known as "the Dreiflüssestadt", which means the “City of Three Rivers.” The historical center offers a cathedral, churches and museums to explore, and the embankment is perfect for a romantic stroll.
Palmer Station
The waters and shores around Palmer Island support characteristic Antarctic wildlife. Penguins, seals, and seabirds inhabit the wider archipelago, while whales may pass through the channels during periods when sea ice permits access. The surrounding landscape features steep mountain faces, glaciers, rocky islands, and narrow passages that create constantly changing views from the water.
Wick
Wick’s location at the mouth of the River Wick provides a dramatic coastal setting, with cliffs, sandy beaches, and the North Sea stretching into the horizon.
Jeddah
Jeddah sits along Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea coast and has long served as a gateway between the Arabian Peninsula and the wider world. For centuries, merchants, pilgrims, and travelers passed through its port on the way to Mecca, shaping a city known for openness and exchange.
