Even though less than a week has passed since my carefree holiday in the verdant hills of Ireland and Scotland, the Mid-Atlantic heat and humidity solidly grounded me back in reality and responsibility. While I’ve been to both Ireland and Scotland several times, this trip offered a new experience, as I was in town to attend a black-tie wedding at The K Club, in County Kildare, Ireland. The property offers luxury rooms and event spaces as well as an impeccably groomed golf course.

Although small, Ireland offers a dazzling array of dining, from the Atlantic-windswept ArdBia in Galway to Michelin-starred Variety Jones in Dublin. Those interested in sustainability should book a guestroom at Ballymaloe House, while Ballymaloe Cookery School offers in-depth cooking classes covering a wide variety of interests.

Lastly, if you’re in the mood for a week-long excursion wrapped in local flavor, consider booking a tour with Raw Milk Retreats. Based in Dumfries, the company offers tours in Scotland and other European destinations with itineraries that include experiences like distillery tastings and cheesemaking.

While my trip was in June, there really is no wrong time to visit the Emerald Isle or the soaring hills of old Caledonia.

Apr 18, 2025Wellness Comes Naturally in Greenville, South Carolina
Strolling through downtown Greenville, South Carolina, it’s easy to see why the city ranks high among the best places to live in the United States: Shops, restaurants and coffee bars line the streets; there are also performance venues, hotels and outdoor plazas. But what really sets this upstate city of just more than 78,000 residents apart are the easily accessible parks and walking trails encouraging both residents and visitors to explore the city by foot or cycle (both handcycles and adaptive bikes are available to rent). Even better, as Greenville continues to grow, city planners and major employers work together to expand these opportunities. When Greenville’s Swamp Rabbit Trail, for instance, opened in 2009, the paved, multiuse pathway ran about 9 miles from the heart of Greenville to the town of Traveler’s Rest.
