The wild expanses, nature reserves, hideaway beach clubs and ancient sites of the untrammelled Tuscan Maremma (opens the original)
Read excerpt
La Dolce Vita, the sleek new Orient Express train, has a route through Tuscany into Siena and on to Venice from Rome. Leaving the grandiose Ostiense station and the city suburbs behind, I’m soon gliding up the Tyrrhenian coast into the wildlands of Tuscany’s Maremma, past nameless, shuttered hill towns that rise above the plains. On these wide-open spaces, worn as faded corduroy, the legendary broad-torsoed Maremmana horses gather, and the long-horned cattle of the region graze in the shade of t
House of Tugu, Old Town Jakarta (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This is the most âout thereâ hotel that I have ever experienced; a destination in its own right, a fascinating museum that showcases Indonesian Peranakan culture and heritage, as well as doubling as the home of its collector-owner Anhar Setjadibrata.

Read excerpt
In 2020, lockdown revealed a personal yearning for connection and stimulation. So I started a book club, connecting diverse friends from different cities around the world. It seemed an antidote to the enforced isolation which made armchair travellers of us all. We decided to focus on travel writing by non-native English writers. We ventured into Greenland with Danish explorer Peter Freuchen to boggle at horror stories of Inuit women of recent history, who when past child-bearing age would be “pu
Hotel Excelsior Venice Lido, Venice (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It is strangely forgotten that Venice is part of an archipelago lapped by the Adriatic; even stranger, then, that there is only one hotel actually on the sea, on an outlying sandbar known as the Lido, that is worth talking about. The grand and architecturally exuberant resort that is Excelsior Lido, has been a Venetian landmark since 1908. It is where the concept of bathing and beach club as chic leisure pursuits began. The iconic, hallmarked cabanas, where Venetian regulars return each summer w
