Hello hello! This week, I'm packing my bags to head to the Oxford Literary Festival to interview Kate Humble and our very own Hilary Bradt. It's the first in a series of events to promote Hilary's upcoming autobiography, Taking the Risk, and if you can't make it to Oxford this weekend, then check out the other events here. It's been years since I was last in Oxford, so this feels a little like a journey back to my youth as much as to a well known English city. Although - I don't think I'll be staying up all night to await the May Day dawn chorus at Magdalen College this time. And not just because it isn't May. No. This time, some twenty years later, I'm going to relish the literary side of things. In the meantime, I'm dreaming about travel around the world, from Lithuania's beaches to these lost cities of the world. And I'm planning a few days in the clotted cream realm of Devon. See you next week, Cheers, Abi From white sands to atmospheric resorts, our pick of the best beaches in Lithuania is here to inspire your next summer getaway. | Ad After a fabulous awards evening at Stanfords Book Shop in London this week, we're thrilled to announce the winner of our 2024 New Travel Writer of the Year Competition!
