Garmisch-Partenkirchen (or GaPa, as it's known by locals), in Bavaria, Germany, has many wonderful places located around the town.

Located near the adorably named Cudlee Creek in South Australia, Gorge Wildlife Park is only a 40 minute drive from the peaceful city of Adelaide.

Stockholm provided many pleasant surprises as a traveller to the city, and despite it being a more expensive destination to visit, it is possible to still see plenty of sights and get around on a budget.

I felt our visit to one of the oldest zoos in the United States deserved its own post because really, I could talk all day about it.
