Travel Links
The following list is not comprehensive, nor is it strictly thematic. Sometimes I stumble upon a review for a place I'd like to try, or someone will send me a link to something interesting, and I can't always get to it right away. Or I want to refer back later. Simple as that. Peruse for your own amusement.

54 Places to Go in 2016
The New York Times - January 7, 2016
Most of this list featured spots I hadn't even considered, let alone traveled. Number 16 is Hangzhou, China, where I spent half of my junior year of college. I've been to Croatia and loved it but didn't make it to Korcula Island, specifically.
52 Places to Go in 2014

I've already been to seven of these places, including Taiwan and Venice. Xishuangbanna, China has actually been at the top of my list since 2010 when my friend and I looked at going to Yunnan. We had our hearts set on Yunnan, but it turned out Seoul was much cheaper--so we changed course.

48 Epic Dream Hotels To Visit Before You Die
Matador Network - March 18, 2015
