As you stay home and stay safe from the pandemic, we bring you an issue rich in Vitamin Sea. Let your mind meander on the white-sand beaches and swim in the turquoise lagoons of the Maldives this May. For there are few things more rewarding than planning and imagining a future trip! We wrapped up our cover shoot with the gorgeous Janhvi Kapoor at The Westin Maldives Miriandhoo Resort before the second wave of COVID-19 struck India, and we present it here so you can enjoy a slice of the tropical island life, until it's safe to travel again. Inside, find a guide to plan your future vacation to one of the leading island resorts, gather styling and beauty tips for that beach holiday, and hear from hospitality veterans who have lived in the archipelago. Back home, let us take you on a tour of the unexplored frontiers of Kashmir, a sustainable circuit of Sikkim, and a tasting tour of gins in Goa. We also have bucket-list material from Indonesia, ample adventure in Utah's canyons, and a lot more. Kick back and travel with us from the safe confines of your home!
