Lifestyle

All the stuff you didn’t plan for but end up obsessed with anyway. The new hotels, strange little tools, restaurant openings, objects worth packing space for, and cultural shifts that start as niche and end up everywhere. Basically: the reasons you start planning another trip before the last one’s even unpacked. Here’s ours.

Wander around the UBS Digital Art Museum

Forget everything you think you know about museums; you know, the stiff silence, velvet ropes, and the security guard sitting down in the corner of every room.

You don’t need snow, skis, or a chalet in the Alps to enjoy an après-ski moment this winter, you just need to find the right door in Melbourne’s CBD.

Relax on a Hot Tub Boat

Fancy lounging in a bubbling cauldron of blissful warmth, cruising the serene waters of Seattle’s Lake Union with the iconic skyline playing peekaboo in the distance? Well, don’t we have the buoyant boat for you.
