As I plan my next trip through New England, one thing I'm especially excited about is taking in the night sky. New Jersey is an amazing place, but it's so bustling and teeming with towns and cities that it can be hard to find that sense of rural peace. Not so as you head up north, especially in places like New Hampshire. One of the best ways to stargaze in the Granite State is with a stunning dome Airbnb in New Hampshire.

Lately, every time I turn on the news or check through my social feeds, there seems to be some rare astronomical event about to take place in the local region. While I always do my best to try to witness these occurrences, the bright lights and tall buildings of my city often impede my view and leave me staring blankly into space.

I’m the first person to tell you why winter travel is better than summer travel, but the one thing I do love about spring and summer travel is getting into the Milky Way season. For North America, the Milky Way season runs from roughly March until October, which makes for some truly epic stargazing. This geo dome in West Virginia is perfect for stargazing, and since April is Global Astronomy Month, why not book a few nights here to do a little stargazing?

From the scenic rocky coastline to gorgeous Acadia National Park, Maine is filled with abundant natural beauty that is forever changing with the seasons. Many visitors (myself included) have witnessed the state’s scenic landscapes by day but have never spent a night out in nature under the area’s peaceful skies. While I’ve always wanted to sleep under the stars, I’ve always placed comfort over camping and have unfortunately missed out on this adventure.

Imagine stepping directly onto the beach from this one-of-a-kind waterfront vacation rental in New Jersey. This bungalow isn’t just near the water—it’s built directly above the sand on wooden stilts, with waves flowing beneath it at high tide. Located on Reeds Beach in Middle Township, this peaceful hideaway offers something most beach rentals don’t: your own private stretch of shoreline and unobstructed views of the stars above.

April is Global Astronomy Month, and South Carolina has some spectacular spots to do a little stargazing. I’m a huge Astro nerd and tend to spend my winters traveling around the Arctic Circle, photographing the Northern Lights. When summer swings back around, I shift my focus to capturing the Milky Way, and this delightful Airbnb in South Carolina is the perfect spot to set up camp and watch the night skies. Glamping is a relatively new term.

With all the glitz and glamour and bright lights that Las Vegas is known for, you might be surprised that there are incredibly dark skies an hour or so outside the city limits. For star-gazing enthusiasts like myself, seeking out the darkest skies is a must to enjoy the magnificence of the Milky Way above us. Suppose you're keen on celebrating International Dark Sky Week in mid-April or any time this month, really, as it is also Global Astronomy Month.

Anyone who knows me knows of my deep-rooted obsession with pizza. I cannot get enough. I'm the type of person who enjoys piping hot slices for Friday night dinner, then wakes up and indulges in cold pizza for breakfast Saturday morning. This culinary obsession has turned into more than just ordering from my local spot, but a quest to find some of the best pizza in the country, one trip at a time. I stumbled upon a bit of a gem in St. Augustine, Florida, after a recent trip up the east coast.

What could be more fun than spending a lazy afternoon or evening feasting on a giant Bavarian pretzel and a plate of delicious schnitzel while nursing a refreshing stein of pilsner with friends? Throw in some upbeat music, cuckoo clocks, and friendly waitresses dressed in German attire, and you are in for an authentic European experience. If this scene sounds like a good time to you, then you absolutely must pay a visit to the Munich Haus restaurant.
