Blog Photos-1There's definitely different types of travel. Sometimes I want to relax, and sometimes I want to explore. What I'm noticing more and more are vacations that are keeping wellness in mind. These vacations are perfect for people who really want to get the most out of their vacations.

I know, it's going to be impossible to choose one of these destinations. Bali has always been a well known destination for wellness and relaxation, but Iceland and Costa Rica are on the rise. I've seen a lot of interest in particular in Costa Rica this year, even with honeymooners who want a mix of relaxation and adventure. BWI has direct flights into Iceland, and it's also a popular layover airport for trips to Europe.
