Some trips begin the moment you check in. Others begin the moment the train pulls out, the ship rounds the headland, or you open the curtain on a view you’ll never forget. This week’s inspiration is all about the journeys where the landscape isn’t an afterthought — it’s the entire reason you went. Think alpine rail through Switzerland, small-ship sailings along remote coasts, lakefront stays at Banff, or a sunrise terrace facing Uluru. Plus a few thoughts on why solo travel is having a moment, and a reminder of what your travel advisor can do that no AI bot ever will.

Happy Travels!
