How will you spend the longest day of 2018 (in the Northern Hemisphere, at least)? In some countries, the Midnight Sun will only set for a handful of hours, meaning that the celebrations will last all night (and day) long. It’s the official start of summer, so you may opt to spend it lounging by the pool. But if you’re feeling more curious and adventurous, the world awaits.
It’s one of the best moments of the summer: The Fourth of July. Fireworks, ice cold beer, hot dogs and burgers, cotton candy and joy. Where should you spend it if you want to have a truly luxurious Independence Day? We think you have three options for this holiday: the seashore, the mountains, or a smaller American city where you can get around easily on foot. We’re steering away from places that are iconic and lovely but way too hot at this time of year (we’re looking at you, Savannah).

Wizardry, wine, gourmet eats and shopping. All in one place? Oh yeah, we’re in. On a recent trip to London, we discovered Leadenhall Market for the first time, and we were enchanted.
High above London grows a secret garden in the sky. There’s no better place to start a cold, wet day in the city. Or to begin a first visit. Or to end a jolly day in London Town. Here’s everything you need to know for a visit to the Sky Garden in London, which offers incredible views, one of the best interior gardens we’ve ever seen, and wonderful restaurants and bars. Best of all? Like so many of life’s luxuries, this one is free!
