Want to see the world? Let's go! Join us on one of our small group tours. First stop, Edinburgh 2024.
How to be a traveler instead of a tourist?
1. Stay in one town/city for multiple days
2. Eat and drink things you have never tried.
3. Don't eat off a menu that is in English if traveling abroad (especially in Italy)
4. Talk to a local and ask questions
5. Don't have a jam packed itinerary. Travel slow. Wander the streets with no plan
6. Take local transportation
Don’t drink at your hotel. Find out where the people who work at your hotel do their drinking.
Don’t be afraid. If it’s appropriate to drink alcohol, drink heavily. Be smart, but be open to the world.”
–Anthony Bourdain

Flamenco is a deeply passionate and expressive art form that encompasses singing (cante), guitar playing (toque), dance (baile), and handclaps (palmas). Originating in the Andalusian region of Spain, flamenco has a rich history influenced by various cultures and historical events. Here's an overview of the history of flamenco dancing:
Origins and Early History
Moorish Influence (8th-15th centuries):
The roots of flamenco can be traced back to the cultural melting pot of Andalusia, which was heavily influenced by the Moors who ruled Spain for nearly 800 years.
Moorish musical traditions, along with those of the Jews and the Gypsies (Roma), contributed to the development of flamenco.
Gypsy (Roma) Influence (15th century onward):
The Roma people, who migrated to Spain from northern India via Persia and Europe, brought with them their unique musical and dance traditions.They settled in Andalusia and played a crucial role in shaping flamenco.
18th and 19th Centuries: The Birth of Flamenco
Café Cantantes (mid-19th century):
Flamenco began to gain popularity in the cafés cantantes, where performances became more structured and professional.
These venues were pivotal in bringing flamenco to a wider audience and solidifying its various styles and forms.
Formalization of Flamenco Dance:
The dance aspect of flamenco became more codified, with distinct styles (palos) emerging, each with its own rhythm and mood.Dancers began to incorporate intricate footwork (zapateado) and expressive movements to convey deep emotions.
20th Century: International Recognition and Evolution
Golden Age of Flamenco (1910s-1950s):
This period saw the rise of legendary flamenco artists who contributed to the art form's development and global popularity.
Flamenco began to be performed in theaters and on international stages, reaching audiences worldwide.
Post-Franco Era (1970s onward):
After the end of Francisco Franco's dictatorship, Spain experienced a cultural renaissance, and flamenco benefited from this newfound freedom.
Modern flamenco artists started experimenting with fusion, blending traditional elements with other musical genres such as jazz and rock.
Contemporary Flamenco
Innovation and Preservation:
Today, flamenco continues to evolve, with contemporary dancers and musicians pushing the boundaries while respecting its deep traditions. Festivals, competitions, and academies around the world celebrate and preserve flamenco, ensuring its legacy for future generations.
Global Influence:
Flamenco has transcended its Spanish origins, inspiring and being incorporated into various art forms globally.
International artists and enthusiasts contribute to its ongoing evolution and preservation.
Key Elements of Flamenco Dance
Expression and Emotion:
Flamenco is known for its emotional intensity and expressive movements, conveying a wide range of feelings, from joy to sorrow.
Footwork (Zapateado):
Intricate and rhythmic footwork is a hallmark of flamenco dance, requiring precision and skill.
Hand and Arm Movements:
Graceful and often dramatic hand and arm movements add to the visual beauty of the dance.
Costumes:
Traditional flamenco costumes are vibrant and elaborate, with women often wearing dresses with ruffles and men in fitted pants and vests.
Improvisation:
While certain aspects of the dance are choreographed, improvisation plays a key role, allowing dancers to express their individuality. Flamenco dancing, with its profound history and cultural significance, remains a powerful and evolving art form that continues to captivate audiences around the world.

Being a traveler instead of a tourist means embracing the world with open arms and an insatiable curiosity. It's about diving deep into the local culture, tasting the street food, and sipping coffee at a roadside cafe where no one speaks your language. It's about getting lost in a new city, striking up conversations with strangers, and experiencing life as the locals do.
Tourists stick to the beaten path, snap a few photos, and head home with souvenirs. Travelers, on the other hand, seek authenticity and adventure. They understand that the true essence of a place lies beyond the guidebooks and Instagram spots. It's in the small moments, the unexpected encounters, and the stories shared over a meal.
Being a traveler means you’re not just seeing the world but truly experiencing it. You’re challenging your assumptions, expanding your horizons, and growing in ways you never imagined. So, be a traveler. Take the road less traveled, savor every moment, and let the world change you.
We are so excited to be a part of this adventure. If you are part of the University of South Carolina Upstate Family, join us in LONDON!

Seville -> Ronda, Spain...a day trip.
Ronda, located in the province of Málaga in southern Spain, is a city known for its dramatic scenery and rich history. Perched atop the El Tajo gorge, which plunges to a depth of 120 meters, Ronda offers breathtaking views and a sense of awe-inspiring natural beauty.
The city is famously divided by the Guadalevín River, spanned by the iconic Puente Nuevo, a stone bridge completed in the 18th century that connects Ronda's old town, La Ciudad, with the newer part, El Mercadillo. Ronda's historical significance is evident in its well-preserved architecture, such as the ancient Arab baths, the Mondragón Palace, and the Plaza de Toros, one of Spain's oldest bullrings.
With its narrow, winding streets, white-washed buildings, and picturesque squares, Ronda embodies the quintessential Andalusian charm. It has also been a source of inspiration for numerous writers and artists, including Ernest Hemingway and Orson Welles, who were captivated by its beauty and cultural heritage.

Have you ever wondered about the history of Memorial Day?
Memorial Day, a federal holiday in the United States, honors and remembers the military personnel who have died in the service of their country. The history of Memorial Day is rich and evolving, reflecting the nation's changes and its relationship with the military.
Origins and Early Observances
Decoration Day:
Memorial Day originated after the Civil War and was initially known as Decoration Day. The name came from the tradition of decorating soldiers' graves with flowers, flags, and wreaths. The practice of decorating graves to honor the dead had been part of many cultures for centuries, but the Civil War, with its immense loss of life, prompted a more formalized and widespread observance in the United States.
First Official Observances:
One of the earliest recorded instances of a community honoring fallen soldiers occurred in Charleston, South Carolina, in 1865. Freed slaves and other residents organized a ceremony to honor Union soldiers who had died in a Confederate prison camp. They cleaned and landscaped a burial ground, held a parade, and sang hymns, marking what many consider the first Memorial Day.
General John A. Logan's Proclamation:
The official establishment of Decoration Day is attributed to General John A. Logan, the national commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, a Union veterans' organization. On May 5, 1868, Logan issued General Order No. 11, designating May 30 as a day to decorate the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the Civil War. This date was chosen because it was not the anniversary of any specific battle.
Evolution into a National Holiday
Post-Civil War to World War I:
Initially, Decoration Day was primarily a Northern tradition, as Southern states had their own days to honor Confederate dead. However, after World War I, the observance expanded to include American military personnel who died in all wars, not just the Civil War. This shift helped unify the observance across the entire country.
Adoption by Southern States:
Over time, Southern states adopted Memorial Day, and it gradually became a nationwide event. Each state and locality developed its own traditions, but the central theme of honoring fallen soldiers remained constant.
Federal Recognition and Modern Observance
Uniform Monday Holiday Act:
In 1968, Congress passed the Uniform Monday Holiday Act, which moved Memorial Day from its traditional May 30 date to the last Monday in May, creating a three-day weekend for federal employees. This change, effective from 1971, aimed to provide a more convenient time for the observance and to encourage travel and family gatherings.
National Moment of Remembrance:
In December 2000, Congress established the National Moment of Remembrance, encouraging Americans to pause for one minute at 3:00 PM local time on Memorial Day to remember and honor those who have died in service to the nation. This act reinforced the day's significance and promoted its observance in a meaningful way.
Traditions and Practices
Grave Decoration:
The tradition of decorating graves continues to this day, with many communities holding parades, memorial services, and visiting cemeteries to place flowers and flags on the graves of fallen soldiers.
Flags and Parades:
American flags are flown at half-staff until noon and then raised to full-staff for the remainder of the day. Parades, featuring veterans' groups, military personnel, and patriotic music, are common across the country.
Community Activities:
Many people observe Memorial Day by attending local events, visiting memorials, and participating in community activities that honor the memory of those who served. It is also a time for family gatherings, barbecues, and the unofficial start of summer.
Memorial Day serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by military personnel and remains a cornerstone of American patriotism and national memory.
