Of course, no matter where you choose to go, preparation is key to avoid any travel hiccups. Check out these tips from four seasoned travel personalities, whose adventures (and misadventures) will help you navigate your trip with confidence.

THE RAMEN VILLAGE IN ASAHIKAWA, HOKKAIDO

Dr. Kim Cantos, known as The Moonlighting Doctor, recommends exploring Hokkaido, Japan.

Asahikawa Ramen Village, says dedicated foodie Dr. Cantos, is home to eight renowned ramen shops where you can savor a bowl of rich, soy-based ramen - an ideal meal for the cold winter months.

For your culinary adventures, Dr. Cantos advises securing comprehensive travel insurance, particularly in case of unexpected food-related issues. "One of my greatest fears when traveling alone is not being able to access medical help in a foreign country," he explains.

"That's why I always make sure to be prepared.

Reliable travel insurance is a must, and AXA has a great reputation among travelers. Many of my colleagues find them easy to work with and highly responsive in times of need."
