The road winds gently through Austria's Kremstal Valley, past vineyards that climb the surrounding hillsides in neat terraces, before arriving at what appears to be a traditional winery.

4th June 2026

Well, we’ve had Hot Girl Summer and Brat Summer - and while attitude has no age limit, both carried a distinctly youthful energy.

29th May 2026

"Change of air - change of scene; those are my prescriptions."  So says Dr John -  “the practical young doctor,” - in Charlotte Brontë’s novel Villette. Written in 1853 - nearly 200 years ago - his words demonstrate that the relationship between travel and wellness was well-recognised in far less sophisticated times than the ones we live in.
