  This guide discusses three different topics:  
  Backpacking - Setting off on a backpacking adventure requires careful planning to ensure a smooth journey and maximize the experience without overspending. First, defining a destination is essential, as this will shape your entire budget and itinerary. Research the cost of living, accommodation, and local transportation options for each location to get a clear picture of potential expenses. Some destinations are significantly more affordable than others, and being flexible with timing and locations can help you find the best deals. 
  Cheap Flights - Airlines utilize a complex pricing structure influenced by multiple factors to determine ticket prices. One of the primary components is the concept of supply and demand. When demand for a particular route is high, airlines are likely to raise ticket prices to maximize revenue. Conversely, during periods of low demand, airlines may lower prices to attract more customers. 
  Family Travel - Once a destination is selected, establish a realistic budget. This should encompass not only transportation and accommodation but also activities, meals, and any unexpected expenses. Engaging your children in the budgeting process can be both educational and fun. Teach them about making choices and compromises based on what is feasible within your budget.

  A magical mystery tour of the extraordinary historical characters that have defined the unique spiritual landscape of New Orleans. New Orleans has long been America’s most magical city, inhabited by a fascinating visible and invisible world, full of mysteries, known for its decadence and haunted by its spirits. If Salem, Massachusetts, is famous for its persecution of witches, New Orleans is celebrated for its embrace of the magical, mystical, and paranormal. New Orleans is acclaimed for its witches, ghosts, and vampires. Because of its unique history, New Orleans is the historical stronghold of traditional African religions and spirituality in the US. No other city worldwide is as associated with Vodou as New Orleans. In her new book, author and scholar Denise Alvarado takes us on a magical tour of New Orleans. There is a mysterious spiritual underbelly hiding in plain sight in New Orleans, and in this book Alvarado shows us where it is and who the characters are. She tells where they come from and how they persist and manifest today. Witch Queens, Voodoo Spirits, and Hoodoo Saints shines a light on notable spirits and folk saints such as Papa Legba, Annie Christmas, Black Hawk, African-American culture hero Jean St. Malo, St. Expedite, plague saint Roch, and, of course, the mother and father of New Orleans Voudou, Marie Laveau and Doctor John Montenée. Witch Queens, Voodoo Spirits, and Hoodoo Saints serves as a secret history of New Orleans, revealing details even locals may not know.

  The author of acclaimed memoirs about life on a French olive farm explores the larger history and culture of the Mediterranean delicacy. Carol Drinkwater has a passion for olive trees and the fruit they bear—“bitter berries” that are transformed into savory delights and pressed into precious oil. Already intimately familiar with the fruit thanks to her olive farm in the South of France, she decided to travel throughout the Mediterranean basin—from Marseille to Malta, Israel to Tunisia—in a quest to learn about their ancient history, their spread throughout the world, and the tastes and traditions they represent. A culinary travelogue and a celebration of a humble, healthful food that inspires devotion among so many, The Olive Route is filled with unusual characters and fascinating anecdotes from “a storyteller of great economy and deftness” (The Telegraph). “Drinkwater has a sharp eye for character, and the people who populate The Olive Route will not disappoint her fans.” —The Independent
