Feelin’ Blue

This morning, the LA Times advised Beyonce & Jay-Z’s newly born daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, of a few places she should travel to given her namesake.

While the list was pretty cool (the Blue Hole of Belize looks tropically tempting right about now…), there’s one “blue” spot they missed – Blue Mountain in Ontario, Canada!

We’re sure little Blue Ivy would adore a little outdoor action, whether it be downhill or cross-country skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking, golfing…the list goes on!

With all there is to do and see, it’s quite a different “blue mountain” than those in Australia (which did make the list, by the way).

The most intriguing spots on the list, though, were the Blue Zones – areas around the globe where explorer, educator and public speaker Dan Buettner discovered his keys to happiness through lifestyle; a few of the locations include Okinawa, Japan; Sardinia, Italy; and Loma Linda, California.

Why are these spots so great? According to the Blue Zones website, they are “verifiable parts of the world where people live the longest and report the highest levels of well-being.”

Sounds pretty good, right? What would make a trip to these lifestyle-improving locales even better? The peace of mind that you could stay in touch with loved ones during your trip, and a Brightroam SIM card is your ticket to fearless roaming world-wide!

After all, why should little Blue Ivy have all the happiness to herself?
