The aptly named mountain is covered in multiple layers of different colors ranging from a captivating maroon to turquoise blue. It is about 17,000 feet above sea level, and it’s a hard hike that you do have to prepare for but all good things in life require a bit of effort. Make sure you bring hiking boots, and do your research before you embark on the breathtaking Andean landscape.

With a warm Mediterranean climate and stunning beaches within easy reach of the center of the city, this coastal city is a hotspot for young travelers in Europe. The seaside position means a dive into their dynamic food scene is a must for any seafood lovers, like fresh octopus, sardines, and tuna. You can’t miss the Time Out markets, which are massive food halls with a collection of the city’s best restaurants, all close together! Lisbon’s charm will stick with you long after you return home, so make sure to take a picture in front of the iconic mosaic tiles as a memory!
