Starting today, White Horse's summer aurora viewing tour begins.
White Horse is a popular Aurora viewing destination in the Yukon Territory, northern Canada. Summer viewing is not too severe, so it is recommended for people who are not good at cold weather.

At the moment, due to immigration restrictions, customers from Japan are not yet able to come, so it is limited to participation by residents in Canada, but since the season of Aurora continues until April, customers from Japan also come as soon as possible. I would like you to see the wonderful aurora.

It's extremely hot every day, so I don't have an appetite (sweat) New Caledonia in the Southern Hemisphere is the opposite of Japan, and it's a cool time now. It is around 17 degrees in the morning and around 25 degrees during the day. Actually, it's not a strange season for Japan to call it a summer resort. Although it is French New Caledonia, in Noumea, the capital city, you can enjoy various French regional dishes in one town. You can also enjoy a light meal from authentic French, and there are also several specialty stores specializing in buckwheat crepes and galettes from the Brittany region. Also, as usual, there are also events called "French Cheese Festival" in June and September. Of course, wine pairing is also available ♫ There are also plenty of fresh seafood dishes that can be obtained on the island, such as a freshly flavored dish of yellowfin tuna tartar seasoned with lime. Have you had a little appetite? Eat well, boost your immunity and survive this summer ☺ For more information, see the ↓ ↓ URL.

Regular international flights will not resume in Georgia until October 1, announces the Georgian Civil Aviation Agency, however Paris, Riga and Munich will be exceptions.
As the situation in the aviation sector is difficult to predict due to the Covid-19 pandemic at the global level, decisions on border and passenger restrictions are periodically changed. We urge citizens and passengers again to refrain from purchasing tickets for uncertified destinations and flights", says the agency.
Georgian Economy Minister Natia Turnava said that restoring more international flights after the first arrivals since the lock down earlier this month will depend on the situation concerning the pandemic in Georgia.
Georgia has opened its borders for travelers from Germany, France, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia unconditionally. All five countries have also opened borders for Georgia
