As we enter this vibrant season of reflection and renewal, we are excited to bring you a collection of stories designed to inspire and invigorate. This issue is packed with diverse and enriching content that speaks to a wide range of interests, whether you’re an adventurous traveller, a cultural enthusiast, or someone seeking to enhance your well-being.
In the Travel section, we invite you to discover 11 Winter Sun Destinations (p. 12), each offering a unique escape from the cold, along with the magic of Japan’s urban marvels (p. 12). Whether you’re longing for a beach retreat or the energy of bustling city streets, these destinations offer the perfect setting for a winter getaway. We also delve deeper into the rich history of Jumada-al-Awwal (p. 26), a significant month in the Islamic calendar, shedding light on its cultural and spiritual importance. A special feature on Mishal Husain’s new book, Broken Threads (p. 38), offers a glimpse into her personal journey through storytelling, exploring the threads that bind us all.
One of my personal highlights this year has been a couple’s getaway to Seville (p. 20), a city that has captured my heart with its charming streets, rich history, and vibrant atmosphere. Seville is a destination made for those who love to explore on foot, with its labyrinthine alleys, sun-drenched squares, and exquisite architecture. Just a short day trip away, we found the enchanting city of Cordoba, where history and beauty merge in stunning ways.

For those who are focused on self-care and wellness, we’ve packed the Beauty & Health section with practical advice to elevate your daily routine. Discover easy-to-follow tips for lowering cortisol levels (p. 64) and managing stress through mindful practices. We also explore how to achieve that natural, radiant glow (p. 36), with simple skincare rituals that can help you feel refreshed and rejuvenated.
This issue is a celebration of the things that matter most: meaningful travel, personal growth, and a deeper connection to the world around us. We hope it provides plenty of inspiration for your journey ahead.
