    🥇 Touching a Glacier: Meares Glacier, Alaska by @dtam

    There are so many beautiful glaciers here in Prince William Sound, Alaska. Many are high in the mountain valleys, hard to reach without some serious rock climbing ability. Others spill out of the mountains all the way down to the ocean. These are called tidewater glaciers, and are best explored by boat or kayak. There are a few, however, that allow a different kind of adventure. Meares Glacier is one of these. It is a tidewater glacier, but it is currently advancing through the rainforest on its sides, presenting a unique way to experience this glacier with a hike. There are certain parts of the glacier that you can actually walk up touch. It is a dynamic environment, always changing, so this adventure won't always be an option. But right now, it is an adventure not to be missed.

    🥈 Azores - Ponta Delgada Impressions by @oceanbee

    How did we end up on the Azores in the first place, you may ask? In short - the hubby. Years ago he told me how he found the Azores' history, geographically and culturally, fascinating due to all the different influences over the centuries. I, honestly, didn't really look into it, except to check where the Azores actually are.

    🥉 Argentina - The most beautiful views of Lake Epuyén on the way to the Condorera viewpoint, Chubut province. / Las vistas más hermosas del Lago Epuyén camino al mirador de la Condorera, provincia de Chubut. 😃❤️ by @lauramica

    If your desire leans towards trekking in landscapes full of vibrant colors, be sure to choose the south of Argentina for your travels. This area brings together the best of blue lakes with green vegetation and the most beautiful snow-capped mountain peaks of all. Whether for relaxing days by the water or long hikes, you're sure to find something to do and enjoy. It was in search of one of those memorable afternoons that I chose to go to the Epuyén Lake area in the province of Chubut, where the view completely justified the walk 😃.
