With the Atlantic Ocean recently having gone into overdrive, there's been no shortage of big waves to ride in Europe. 

Two weeks spent largely underwater was just what I needed to come to life.

The Azores islands are normally not thought of as a “beach destination.

Situated in the middle of the Atlantic, the Azores archipelago is lush and green and incredibly biodiverse. It’s truly a hiker’s paradise.

As the archipelago’s largest island, São Miguel makes for the perfect introduction to the Azores.

The Azores is a stunning off-the-beaten-path destination located deep in the Atlantic roughly between Boston and Lisbon.

The first time I visited Sao Miguel Island was in 2017 to visit some friends that live there. They showed me around the island. Since then, I try to go back every year to explore this paradise known as the “Green Island” (Ilha Verde).

The coronavirus creates a surreal stay in the Azores for a photojournalist and aspiring round-the-world traveler.

The touristic tendency post-coronavirus, according to European Best Destinations, is toward traveling far from cities, away from crowds and stress.
