I denne utgaven

The cover story this month focuses on Italy. From a coastal road trip through Calabria to street art tours in Turin and dining in the shadow of Mount Etna, we round up 21 experiences that cast the peninsula in a different light. Elsewhere, we find out how Madagascar’s communities and eco-lodges are preserving the island’s rich, endangered habitats; canoe down Scotland’s River Spey, the water of life for Caledonia’s malt whisky; explore Kyoto, Japan’s cultural heart, where live music fills cafes, bars and historic houses; and discover how Cape Town is finding a new groove with edgy bars and exciting hotels.
