Destination: Family Holiday

GLORIOUS BLUE On a bright, sunny day, you can see an unobstructed view of Mount Fuji. Some people, despite having been to Japan several times, have never seen Mount Fuji, because of poor visibility. However, if you’re on a skyscraper in Tokyo, it is easier to see Mount Fuji, but then again, it has to be a sunny day. FAMILY HOLIDAYS Few destinations could be as family-friendly as Japan, whether you’re travelling with your children or your parents.

Remarkable Journal: Unconditional Love

UNCONDITIONAL LOVE On the occasion of Mother’s Day, we interview eight mothers about their dream journey with their kids. Let’s take a look at their answers.

MY WORLD
Tiny Wisdom

A small chapter from Chalisa Viravan’s diaries about visiting Mount Kailash, in Tibet, a place believed by four religions to be the centre of the universe Many people have asked me why I chose to venture to such a challenging place. My reason is pretty simple -- I did it because I wanted to. I was 14 years old when I left home to study abroad, so travelling has always been a part of my life. I also moved school a lot, so I always experienced new things. People usually think that those who travel to places off the beaten path are unhappy people looking for a solution. Maybe they got that idea from Thai dramas, in which women choose to run away to escape problems. Some think that it’s better to be comfortable at home. For me, I am an extremist in a way.
