Whether you're moving to, from, or around the area, these tips will help you adjust to life in the Holy City. Many newcomers, myself included, think they'll spend every weekend enjoying downtown Charleston. In reality, we mostly visit for special occasions or when guests are in town.

Germany has several dreamy medieval towns that enchant visitors. Perhaps one of the most well-known is Rothenburg ob der Tauber, located about two hours from Frankfurt and an hour from Nuremberg.

The color yellow is gorgeous, eye-catching, and downright happy for most people. So much so that it's the main hue in the world-famous happy face—but science says it's not the best color to wear on a date.

When it comes to planning the perfect visit to Disney, most parkgoers generally try to focus on what attractions they're going to hit up or what characters they're hoping to meet. However, in between the excitement and anticipation, there's one major detail that visitors tend to overlook: the dress code. Yeah, believe it or not, even the "Happiest" and "Most Magical" places on Earth aren't exempt from strict rules and regulations when it comes to what guests can and can't wear. And with hundreds of videos on TikTok detailing why or when certain people got "dress coded," it's safe to say the park doesn't play around.

You've booked your flight, paid for your preferred seat in advance, and now the time has come for your trip. You board the plane and settle into your spot until someone taps you on the shoulder: "Hey, do you mind if we swap seats?" A dilemma arises: You've paid for your window or aisle seat (let's be real, no one wants the middle seat), yet you want to be nice and say yes, but deep in your heart is a loud and resounding "NO!" For anyone with social anxiety, flight jitters, and people-pleasing tendencies, seat swap requests are a nightmare. Too often, nice people say "yes" and then spend the rest of their long-haul flight in the middle seat next to the lavatory and a crying baby, vowing to never be "nice" again.

Flight Attendant Shares Shocking Secret Why They Can’t Help You With Your Luggage

With flight prices soaring, travelers are getting increasingly inventive in the hunt for cheaper airfare. Some stoop to borderline dubious hacks — like skiplagging — that airlines hate, while others play the waiting game for that certain day of the week that allows for cheaper flights. But when your itinerary is packed and involves jumping from one city to another, resorting to these tricks and booking flights the usual way (a.k.a. roundtrip) may seem impractical and even more costly. Instead, consider booking multi-city flights, a strategy that could yield savings and convenience, according to Victoria Fricke, owner of Vic's Vacations travel agency.
