Midcentury looks and a rainbow of books set this Östermalm apartment apart. Head out into the sparkling neighborhood for classic Swedish comfort food—and maybe even a concert—at Nalen. Or just snuggle up and make your way through the yellows. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photo: @lottahuvinen

Making a meal can help you feel at home even in a place of otherworldly beauty. Besides, why climb the stairs into town for breakfast when you already have this view? Save your energy for a day of exploring the vineyards and villages of the island’s interior. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photo: @oyuxi

Aquelas manhãs em que nem é preciso dizer "bom dia". Acordar nesse bangalô no topo da colina faz com que seu dia comece na direção certa, já que seu próximo passo será tomar um café da manhã no vilarejo, nadar na praia de Santa Tereza ou ir direto da cama para a rede do lado de fora da casa. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Sometimes “good morning” feels like too much of an understatement. Waking up in this hilltop bungalow has a way of pointing your day in the right direction, whether that means breakfast in the village, swimming at Santa Tereza beach, or just migrating to the hammock outside. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photo: @mellinapassi

A is for Atlanta. Get back to basics in the loft of your hilltop bungalow. Or go down into the heart of the bustling, ultra-walkable Virginia-Highland neighborhood. Grab some grits at Callie's Hot Little Biscuit and see where your feet take you from there. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photo: @jordanpulmano

Pour une vue imprenable sur la Tour Eiffel, faites-vous un café et ouvrez simplement les rideaux de ce charmant appartement parisien. Inutile d'affronter la foule, ni même de mettre un pantalon pour admirer chaque détail de ce monument iconique. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Grab a cup of coffee and throw back the curtains of this charming Parisian home’s window to get a private viewing of the Eiffel Tower. You won’t have to fight a crowd, but more importantly, you won’t even have to put on pants to take in every detail of the iconic tower. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photo: @travelwander.lust

Serenity isn’t normally associated with District 1, but this apartment in the city’s bustling center pulls it off. Every room strikes a balance between chic and soothing, but the kitchen’s big windows and vined ceiling make it the best place to chill. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photo: @simonsnopek

Your little one will probably love this big house on the edge of Noosa National Park right off the bat. But you still might want to point out some of its subtler features, like giving koalas a rare chance to view humans in their natural habitat. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We’d love to see how your family makes itself at home while traveling.
