Bai Tram Hideaway, Vietnam

 

The first month of 2016 is almost over; well done all for battling through dreary January! Here at i-escape towers, we’ve been using this time to plan ahead, looking to February winter-sun escapes (stay tuned), Easter family breaks, and long, lazy summer getaways both à deux and en famille. There’s a lot to look forward to, and the web has been a hive of news and inspiration. Here’s what caught our eye this month…

Lucy Williams brought us her captivating accounts of tiger spotting and camel trekking in Rajasthan.

We’ve just added 10 more travel tomes to our reading list.

Adventurer Henry Worsley tragically died during his solo attempt to cross Antarctica this month – find out more about his inspiring endeavours via his fundraising page.

Courtney Adamo and her beautiful brood are on a year-long family adventure, and we were thrilled when they stayed at one of our all-time Uruguay favourites.
