This Stunning Hotel in Chile Is Giving Away 10 Free Trips to Patagonia — but You Have to Act Fast

As a travel journalist, I’ve been lucky to visit some of the most stunning places around the globe. And whenever anyone asks what my favorite destination is, I never hesitate: Patagonia. All through the region, especially in Torres del Paine National Park, the natural greens felt more verdant and the blues felt more calming, as if Mother Nature cranked up the saturation of the colors there.

Forging Connection on a Group Hiking Retreat in Coachella Valley

The prick to my finger was fast and sharp, but my blood wasn't being drawn by a nurse. Instead, the outstretched arm of a cholla cactus was the culprit. I had come to California's Coachella Valley for Sensei Porcupine Creek's inaugural longevity-focused hiking retreat, and I'd been stabbed by the plant's barbed spine while furiously pumping my arms to keep pace with my group's extremely fit guide, Anthony Purnel, a tribal council member of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians.

This Country Was Named the No. 1 Wellness Destination in Asia — and It's Famous for Hot Springs and Forest Bathing

Feeling overworked, undervalued, and generally a bit frazzled? Then, it's time to start planning a wellness-focused getaway that will totally re-align you. And Book Retreats has just got the place to go. In December, Book Retreats released its Holiday Relaxation Report, which ranked the best relaxation destinations around the world, including a special focus on the top spots for wellness. To determine its rankings, the team created a seed list of 76 places, which it selected based on their «safety, solitude, serenity, nature, and wellness.» The team at Book Retreats then ranked those selections using nine data points, including the percentage of protected area, forest coverage, crowd density, noise and light pollution, peacefulness, and total wellness experiences. Finally, it gave each destination a score of 1 to 100 to reveal the top spots.

Finding Serenity and Sisterhood at Wild Swimming Retreats in the UK

The first wild swimming retreat I did was in Cornwall. It was back in 2020 when swim stays were not quite the phenomenon they are now. Once we’d settled in, the first thing we did was go around and share why we were there. I was immediately moved by the openness of the other guests. Responses varied from burnout and heartbreak to redundancy, grief, or simply needing a rest. It seemed that everyone had arrived at a crossroads in their life or—more likely—a desire for there to be a crossroads. Although the catalyst for attending a week-long swimming trip was different for each of us, we were united in being ready for change and hopeful for connection. We were all looking for an opportunity to take a different path, and what better way to take that first step than leaping into the water? It’s a perfect metaphor, really—diving, plunging, cleansing.

An Iceland Destination Wedding in Kerlingarfjöll: How We Pulled It Off

Alyssa Bonanno and Will Mayer were never going to have a traditional destination wedding. The couple—who met in Chicago, reconnected in Los Angeles, and now live in New York City—are the founders of branding agency and production company Better Half, and thus are well-versed in creating ambitious visuals for big-name companies like Nike and Spotify. When they got engaged in November 2022, they had some unique goals for their nuptials: namely, to generate a bit of “friction” for their guests.

Relearning How to Sleep at A Swiss Spa

When a member of the hotel team showed me around my sleep-optimized room at Switzerland's Chenot Palace Weggis, I got the sense I would not sleep very well at all. “You set the alarm for the morning and it will play for 20 minutes,” she explained, pointing to a panel on the wall. “Then you put on the eye mask and play this for another 20 minutes.” She gestured toward a smartphone on the other side of the bed that contained the app I would need. There was also a smart thermostat, which had to be set between 66 and 68 degrees, bedsheets coated with infrared-emitting minerals, and temperature-regulating pajamas. I was tired, jet-lagged, and in no shape to comprehend the complicated contraptions that were meant to help me do what's supposed to be the most natural thing in the world.
