Christmas 2025

TRAVEL

May then belongs to Pakistan’s Hindu Kush, no longer remote but on the cusp of luxury discovery. With reinstated direct flights and free e-visas, travelers enter blooming valleys and witness Chilam Joshi, where the Kalasha people celebrate spring with embroidered dress, ancestral dances, and cedar-scented rituals. June turns to Rwanda, where conservation becomes a calling: Akagera National Park now shelters 70 southern white rhinos, a rewilding effort that reimagines Africa’s ecological future. Paired with Nyungwe’s chimpanzees and Volcanoes National Park’s gorillas, the experience—crafted by Journeysmiths— offers soft-luxury depth and storytelling rooted in respect. “Beyond the usual wishlist lies a curated calendar of places that don’t merely entertain— they transform.” July redefines British summer in Glasgow, Scotland, where Victorian grandeur meets street-art swagger and live music pulses through its UNESCO-recognized cultural veins. With the Commonwealth Games taking over the city, July becomes a tapestry of competition, ceremony, and civic pride. August softens into Cornwall, UK, where cliff roads hug turquoise coves, surf breaks roll in rhythmic perfection, and folk music spills across Falmouth’s harbour. Travelers following Southwest 660 experience tin- mine relics, artisan bakeries, and the mist- draped mythology of Tintagel.
