Dominican Republic – December in the Caribbean
Imagine an endless white beach with azure blue water, mixed drinks from morning till night, sailing on a catamaran to a pirate island, or riding on buggies. Had enough of the provocation? This dream came true for us thanks to Swiss Air. We had four destinations to choose from - the Dominican Republic, Cuba, Maldives, and Mauritius. In the end, the Caribbean won and we can share our experiences with you.

Hawaii – 19 days in paradise 2/3 – The biggest and...
The Big Island (Hawaii) is the most diverse island, and that was one of the main reasons why we chose it. The western side of the island offers the most beautiful beaches, the eastern side tropical forests and waterfalls. The island's highest mountain, Mauna Kea, has an elevation of 4205m above sea level. However, if measured from its underwater base, it is the tallest mountain in the world with a total height of 10,203m.
Maldives – Stopover in Hulhumale
In the Maldives, it is common for flight departures to be early in the morning, so you need to spend one to two nights somewhere near the airport. You can choose between Male, Hulhumale, or even Villingili. Since we wanted to avoid the overcrowded Male and Villingili does not have a bikini beach, Hulhumale won by process of elimination. This island is artificially built and connected by a road to the airport island.
