Travel Bucket List: Salar de Uyuni

by Ivanna Co.

In southwest Bolivia, Salar de Uyuni is the world’s largest salt flat. Covering a distance of over 4,000 square miles, Salar was a natural creation by the result of the transformation of prehistoric lakes, which have dried up. Lethally beautiful, it is one of South America’s most unforgettable, ethereal sights. Extraordinarily flat, Sala de Uyuni is blindly bright and colored with soft pastels, reflecting the sky’s soft hues. It is the ultimate surreal experience in the physical world.

Often refer to as a savage beauty, it is recommended that you visit Salar with your sunglasses on and stay at their salt hotel. Yes, you read right! Palacio de Sal is the first salt hotel in the world. Every surface of the architecture is made of salt - the walls, furniture, floor, ceilings and more. Both modern and exotic, it reflects the dreamlike appearance of Salar.

Below are some stunning images chronicled by the time of day at Salar de Uyuni by photographer, Ian Parker.

Macro Photographs Capture the Mystical Beauty of Carnivorous Plants by Joni Niemelä

Finnish photographer Joni Niemelä brings focus to the details found in nature, which are often overlooked. Featuring one of Niemelä’s favorite subject, a carnivorous plant called Drosera or “Sundew,” he takes us into a microscopic and intimate view of the unique plant.

Through Niemelä’s macro photography, we are able to see each droplet of morning dew collected by the Sundew, hence the name, and its alien-like anatomy. He creates a vibrant, yet mystical and moody atmosphere of the ravenous plant by the use of color and an unorthodox perspective..

I will spend my life traveling, laughing, drinking all kinds of tea, meeting new people, reading good books, growing things, creating beauty, eating chocolate, doing magic, making love and occasionally I will write something worth reading.

I hate this feeling. Like I'm here, but I'm not. Like someone cares. But they don't. Like I belong somewhere else, anywhere but here, and escape lies just past that snowy window, cool and crisp as the February air.

7 Magical Places to View Auroras

by Babak Tafreshi

These tips will give you the best shot at experiencing the enchantment of the northern and southern lights.

And remember: Besides weather, a dark sky and the right season are the keys. Try moonless nights.

ICELAND

Even without the northern lights, Iceland is an otherworldly place to visit, with glaciers, geysers, massive waterfalls, and volcanoes. Both the latitude and longitude of the country favor aurora viewing, but the weather doesn’t always cooperate. However, a good coastline road around the country lets you chase clear skies.

When to Go: Late August to early April

FAIRBANKS, ALASKA

In Fairbanks, Alaska, the sky glows with the aurora borealis.

Located just two degrees below the Arctic near international airport and close to the impressive Denali National Park, Fairbanks is the best place in the U.S. to take in the northern lights. It even has its own forecast system and offers tours to take visitors far from city lights.

When to Go: Late August to mid-April

YELLOWKNIFE, CANADA

The aurora borealis spreads out above Prosperous Lake in Yellowknife, Canada.

This Northwest Territories capital on the shores of Great Slave Lake boasts its own Aurora Village and special activities for northern lights tourism.

Canada is an aurora viewing paradise, thanks to its northern latitude and low light pollution; elsewhere in the country, Wood Buffalo and Jasper National Park are popular viewing spots.

When to Go: Mid-August to late April. For Churchill and Wood Buffalo, early August to early May.

Did you know, you can quit your job, you can leave university? You aren’t legally required to have a degree, it’s a social pressure and expectation, not the law, and no one is holding a gun to your head. You can sell your house, you can give up your apartment, you can even sell your vehicle, and your things that are mostly unnecessary. You can see the world on a minimum wage salary, despite the persisting myth, you do not need a high paying job. You can leave your friends (if they’re true friends they’ll forgive you, and you’ll still be friends) and make new ones on the road. You can leave your family. You can depart from your hometown, your country, your culture, and everything you know. You can sacrifice. You can give up your $5.00 a cup morning coffee, you can give up air conditioning, frequent consumption of new products. You can give up eating out at restaurants and prepare affordable meals at home, and eat the leftovers too, instead of throwing them away. You can give up cable TV, Internet even. This list is endless. You can sacrifice climbing up in the hierarchy of careers. You can buck tradition and others’ expectations of you. You can triumph over your fears, by conquering your mind. You can take risks. And most of all, you can travel. You just don’t want it enough. You want a degree or a well-paying job or to stay in your comfort zone more. This is fine, if it’s what your heart desires most, but please don’t envy me and tell me you can’t travel. You’re not in a famine, in a desert, in a third world country, with five malnourished children to feed. You probably live in a first world country. You have a roof over your head, and food on your plate. You probably own luxuries like a cellphone and a computer. You can afford the $3.00 a night guest houses of India, the $0.10 fresh baked breakfasts of Morocco, because if you can afford to live in a first world country, you can certainly afford to travel in third world countries, you can probably even afford to travel in a first world country. So please say to me, “I want to travel, but other things are more important to me and I’m putting them first”, not, “I’m dying to travel, but I can’t”, because I have yet to have someone say they can’t, who truly can’t. You can, however, only live once, and for me, the enrichment of the soul that comes from seeing the world is worth more than a degree that could bring me in a bigger paycheck, or material wealth, or pleasing society. Of course, you must choose for yourself, follow your heart’s truest desires, but know that you can travel, you’re only making excuses for why you can’t. And if it makes any difference, I have never met anyone who has quit their job, left school, given up their life at home, to see the world, and regretted it. None. Only people who have grown old and regretted never traveling, who have regretted focusing too much on money and superficial success, who have realized too late that there is so much more to living than this.

It was November – the month of crimson sunsets, parting birds, deep, sad hymns of the sea, passionate wind-songs in the pines.

You expected to be sad in the fall. Part of you died each year when the leaves fell from the trees and their branches were bare against the wind and the cold, wintery light. But you knew there would always be the spring, as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person died for no reason.

Ernest Hemingway, A Moveable Feast
