"A hint of chocolate, a whisper of citrus," he tells the barista. He's a foodie, so unlike me, he actually smells these aromas. This isn't a wine tasting - I'm at a coffee cupping in a coffee lab in Bogota, Colombia. Coffee cupping is a ritual taken very seriously by food and wine geeks, and an intr

Until recently, I thought a vacation in Cancun or the Riviera Maya on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula was just playing golf, sunbathing and snorkeling. Not so. Here you can dive or snorkel in cenotes, swim or raft in underground rivers, steer ATVs or amphibious buggies in the jungles and ride zip lines.

"You're doing great," said my friend hanging on the snow wall near me. "Remember to keep at least three points in contact with the snow." It was the first time I'd scaled a steep cliff. Maybe inching up Tuckerman Ravine's Headwall, as skis and boots hooked to my backpack tried to push me back down...

The rocks our jeep dislodged tumbled down a slope so steep than I couldn't see them fall and didn't hear them land. We were on the last part of a jeep tour in Israel's Negev desert and the Dead Sea was in view, very far below us. The trail, if you could call it one....
