Best Sense-ation Combinations

Our Bluelist pick comes courtesy of Jojokato, a regular Bluelist poster who recognizes that some of the best travel experiences demand your complete sensory attention.

 

Jojokato looks at some of the best ways to test your senses – wade through the thick jungle air and clamber a-la-Indiana Jones through Mayan ruins built as early as the 4th century BCE; satisfy your taste buds and get into line at Beard Papa, where the smell of cream puffs sends you into food wonderland; take in the fragrant hibiscus and ginger as you hike up to Manoa Falls, Hawaii, an experience akin to walking into a giant bamboo wind chime.

 

Check out Jojokato's "Best Sense-ation Combinations" Bluelist here.
