Whether you know it as the birthplace of Rihanna or rum, Barbados is a beautiful country full of adventure and rich history. Its Caribbean location gives the island its calm, protected western side and a wilder eastern side where Atlantic waves pelt the shores. I visited during the dry season, which runs from December to April.

San Antonio’s vegan scene surprised me with its accessibility and variety. During my visit in December 2024, I never seemed far away from something good to eat.

All took a chance in the notoriously volatile and low-margin dining world by following their convictions and opening their restaurants. Plus, I want to eat at all of these places again.

When I arrived at Padre Pio Park in San Antonio, I saw a blue heron standing so tall and still at the river’s edge that I thought it was a larger-than-life statue. I walked up to photograph it and just about had a heart attack as it indignantly took off, squawking. San Antonio is surprisingly full of outdoorsy things to do. Of course, it’s blazing hot during summer, but there are many good reasons to go outside and enjoy Texan wildlife and green space the rest of the year.
