National Geographic Traveller India Magazine - September - October 2021

In this issue

Our latest NGTI issue is an ode to the roads—familiar and lesser known. We've got a couple's account of driving through rain and shine in Slovenia, a traveller's tale of traversing Arunachal Pradesh's highways, and an exhaustive guide of 9 campervan circuits that you can undertake across India. This edition also maps Philadelphia's artistic soul, and bundles an exclusive interview with Laurie Woolever—the late Anthony Bourdain's close associate and the co-author of his last book, World Travel: An Irreverent Guide.
