Let’s be real for a minute: We haven’t met an infinity pool we didn’t like. But one spot in Mexico’s Mezquital Valley puts even the most luxurious hotel swimming holes to shame. Las Grutas Tolantongo, or the Tolantongo caves, are a collection of hot spring pools built into a cliff in Hidalgo.

I’m that girl on the long plane ride that you’ll see whipping out an abundant assortment of beauty items: serums, oils, moisturizers, eye creams, a jade roller (someone told me these worked… for something…) and begin applying everything in a falsely precise order as if I am some kind of skincare savant. It would seem, to seatmates and onlookers, that I know exactly what I’m doing. The truth: I don’t. I have absolutely no idea what I’m doing....

But now, that year is up and the company is hiring for the role once again....

Beeyonder is one of them. Launched in December 2020, Beeyonder brings people on virtual adventures around the world, exploring nearly 50 countries, plus Antarctica.

Uber is breaking down customer ratings as part of the company’s new “Privacy Center,” allowing riders to finally see how many 5-star reviews — or not-so-5-star reviews — they’ve received.

Asheville may lay claim to the most-visited spot in western North Carolina — especially in the autumn season when fall foliage is ripe for peeping — but the Highlands-Cashiers plateau is more than worthy of an extended trip.
