6-7 EXPLORE YOUR BACKYARD ON THE GREAT NORTH AMERICAN ROAD TRIP 8-9 PLAN AHEAD: LESSONS ON TRAVEL IN THE AGE OF THE PANDEMIC 10 SIX FEET APART: TRAVEL WHERE YOU CAN KEEP YOUR DISTANCE

Those who choose to go beyond their borders are currently facing a dilemma: travel now or travel later? While you have to answer that question for yourself, our return issue of Globetrotting is packed with travel insights and inspirational stories to help you make that decision.

“Plan ahead,” Carolyn Weppler says in her Lessons on Travel (p. 8). That advice is as valid now as it ever has been. Many of us cut off from long-haul air travel at the height of the pandemic tried to make the best of the situation and (re)discovered our own backyards, which we take to heart on The Great American Road Trip (p. 6). Of course, times have changed, and depending on your situation and where you’re going, staying Six Feet Apart (p. 10) could be your idea of a perfect vacation.

One Stray Day in Istanbul (p. 11) uncovers a world of curiosity, cats, and a unique way to explore a great city. After Expo (p. 14) includes expert insights from Dubai Tourism as to what’s next for the glittering desert metropolis. Wellness has been a buzz word in travel for a decade, but after the past two years, we could all do with a recharge. Thailand (p. 16), the Land of Smiles, has massaged wellness experiences into every visit to its kingdom.

One thing that entices many of us onto a long flight is the promise of mouthwatering food waiting at the other end. Travel offers the chance to sample the Unique Flavours of New Zealand (p. 20) or savour Local Delicacies in Korea (p. 21). These stories offer a taste of what you’ve been missing.

Our mission is to help you realize a lifetime of travel, whether that means travelling soon or when you’re ready. If you need some inspiration, turn to our 10 hand-picked getaway ideas on pages 28 and 29. Even if your new dilemma is choosing where to go, it’s the kind of problem we love to have.

Happy reading and happy travels,
