• One of the best things about having people visit you is getting to show off your hometown. And when you happen to be based in the Big Apple, there’s a lot to see. Check out this “first timers’ guide to a weekend in New York.” @WanderlandAlex
• How do travel bloggers who have families manage their responsibilities at home and on the road? Read on as 15 peripatetic parents sound off on how they achieve work-life balance while satisfying their wanderlust. @LolaAkinmade
• Tokyo, Japan, is a place that thrives on the “oddly familiar juxtaposition of the old against the new” — and nowhere is this dynamic more evident than in the many shrines that can be found all over the city. @InspirngTrvlrs
• And now, for this week’s dose of travel zen: A first-person narrative about what it’s like to go horseback riding on the beach and through the jungle (there are monkeys!) in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua. @WildJunket
