A

s I write this, I'm sitting by the pool with a glass of freshly-squeezed
orange juice beside me. The bright September sun is shining and
the wind is barely rustling the palm trees. My week in Phoenix is
coming to a close - and what a great week it's been. Shopping,
eating, relaxing - with the odd bit of mountain climbing and sightseeing
thrown in. It's pretty much accomplished every expectation of a holiday.
Travel is a basic human desire, after all. What's more, when you break
free from the place you spend most of your time, it sharpens your mind
and boosts your wellbeing. Most people say they travel to escape life,
but I'd argue travel allows life not to escape us. I travel to experience
the new and to spend quality time with friends, family - and myself. I
also travel for fun. But, whatever your reason for getting away, the result
is usually the same: a welcome pause from your daily routine, allowing you
to return home feeling refreshed, rejuvenated and raring to go.
In this issue, we look closer to home for your next trip. From Cambridge
to the Shetland Islands, we can take pride in a plethora of natural wonders
on our doorstep - see pg 28. If you're thinking ahead to Christmas
- don't forget London is particularly colourful during
the festive period and this year is no different - use
our guide on pg 60 to plan your visit.
I hope you feel inspired to travel through our pages
and discover new places you can call home from home.
