By the time March rolls around, I'm ready for new adventures. The holidays are far in the rearview mirror, and I'm longing for more daylight and warmer temperatures.
Luckily, most of the world feels the same way. Spring celebrations, like Holi in India and Lantern Festival in Taiwan, are in full force across the Northern Hemisphere. March also brings St. Patrick's Day festivals near and far as well as Alaska's adrenaline-packed Iditarod.
And there's lots more to love about travel in March. Even if you're based someplace with less fickle weather than my frost-covered Northeast home, March offers up a cornucopia of possibilities. Do you love snow and lots of it? High-elevation ski resorts in the western states often offer fresh powder in March. Want warm weather? The Caribbean is ideal in hurricane-free spring, and the southern states experience glorious spring temperatures. In the Southern Hemisphere, it's the start of autumn, with crisp weather and lots of activities.
