Introducing Raffles Maldives Meradhoo's Royal Residence
At the southernmost reach of the Maldives, in the remote and pristine atoll of Gaafu Alifu, Raffles Maldives Meradhoo has been welcoming travellers in search of true tranquillity and complete escapism since its opening in 2019. Now, as the world slowly emerges from lockdown, this Indian Ocean idyll is ready to reveal a retreat that will provide the ultimate hideaway for those who want to relax in unparalleled style: the Raffles Royal Residence. Occupying an unblemished stretch of the resort's blissful Beach Island, the vast six-bedroom villa is perfect for groups of friends gathering for a once-in-a-lifetime celebration, as well as families who want to kick back and take things easy. Stretching comfortably over 1,700 square metres and accommodating up to 15 guests, the Royal Residence's heart is the three consecutive reception rooms that border its 40-metre pool and look towards the property's private beach. Whether savouring a fully catered barbecue, enjoying a boisterous pool party or simply admiring unimpeded views of another staggering sunset, everything the property offers can be enjoyed in absolute exclusivity. With interiors conceived by Singapore-based design firm BLINK, the Royal Residence melds Raffles' respect for tradition and timeless elegance with the Maldives' unique maritime beauty and relaxed, restorative approach to luxury. Raffles' distinct colonial style is seen in the property's striped monsoon blinds and louvered doors - the signature grey-blue shade visible throughout was in fact created especially for the Royal Residence and the resort more generally. The spectacular seascapes to be found immediately beyond the resort are affectionately referenced in the coral patterns that are embedded on upholstery; contemporary furniture inspired by sea life; and ecologically friendly decorations that replicate the can't-be-bettered shapes organically produced by nature, from turtle shells to sea urchins to starfish. Shaded by palm trees and flanked by silken sands, it makes an incomparable retreat for groups who, for just a while, want to leave the real world behind entirely.

Named “Essentially LA”, passengers are delivered to the most iconic landmarks and best views of Hollywood, all of Los Angeles, beaches and beach-side towns, or an entirely customized 'what-I-want-to-see-here' tour, all in the fresh air and sunshine of California.
StarLine's longest running and most popular tour, the Celebrity Homes Tour is also available as a private tour. The two-hour tour, with 10 seats and a driver/guide, includes famous celebrity homes, iconic Sunset Strip and Rodeo Drive, and panoramic views of Los Angeles.
The same open-air van with driver/guide is also available in a completely custom tour. Guests may suggest locations and sightseeing options, and StarLine's Tour Guide, will build the tour tailored to fit your two, three, or four-hour tours.
Rates for the two-hour Essential Celebrity Homes Private Tour or the Custom Private Tour is $420 and can accommodate families traveling together up to 10, which is just $21 per passenger per hour.

You can read about their experience and even buy at discounted rates a growing selection of curated items from the concierge menu or globeshops."

The demands on their performance operates in a niche where they're to share experiences that fall in the category from 'affordable luxury' to 'home away from home experience during their trips'.

What Do Walrus Heads, Warriors and Dragons All Have In Common?
What do walrus heads, warriors and dragons all have in common? They all play a role in the mythos surrounding the aurora borealis. Nowadays we look to the heavens and know that electrons from space are colliding with nitrogen and oxygen gases in the sky to create ethereal auroras in greens, reds, pinks and blues. But in the days of yore peoples would craft fantastic stories about what was occurring in the night sky. Here in Alaska, the most well-known aurora legend told by the indigenous people of the Arctic is that the northern lights were spirits of the dead playing ball with a walrus head. Northern European Norse mythology indicated that the aurora were the spirits of valiant warriors ascending a fire bridge into the heavens. In Asian lore, the northern lights were thought to be good and evil dragons battling each other in the sky. These powerful myths reveal how people were, and still are, awe inspired by the aurora weaving across the night sky.
During Aurora Season, from August 21 to April 21, Fairbanks is one of the best places on earth to see the northern lights. Far away from the madding crowds, with minimal light pollution, meager amounts of precipitation and positioned in a most advantageous location directly under the “Auroral Oval” (where aurora activity is concentrated), Fairbanks is a divine destination for northern lights viewing.
