The holiday read has a long history, and for many of us, the pace of modern life means the only time we really get stuck into the latest novel is while spread out on a sunlounger or sipping coffee in a plaza.
The button-up shirt is consistently my ultimate travel multitasker, bridging the gap between casual and sophisticated outfits throughout. The flowy silhouette keeps me cool during hot afternoons, but the crisp fabric looks polished enough for ship dining and evening strolls.
In summer 1936, the French government passed a law that mandated paid holiday, a move that kickstarted the exodus of northerners to the Med every August, and it became a true emblem of the French vacances.
New platforms for discussing urban futures highlight decolonization and the climate crisis as central priorities for contemporary architectural practice, reflecting a shift towards more inclusive and adaptive approaches.
CAF's appeals board on Tuesday ruled that Senegal forfeited the final by leaving the field of play without the referee's authorisation, and it awarded Morocco a default 3-0 win. The game was delayed for 14 minutes as most of the Senegalese players and staff returned to their dressing room, while Senegal fans battled stewards behind one of the goals in protest against a controversial penalty call for Morocco after Senegal had a goal ruled out.
Planning the trip, however, filled me with apprehension. Our boys were no longer little travelers content to trail along behind us through forts and museums. They were teenagers now-15 and 13-with strong opinions, independent streaks, and a finely tuned radar for boredom.

We were really looking forward to it, and then when the news came out on February 28, it was an 'oh crap' moment. There's a lot of uncertainty over the status of the Middle East. We're seeing strikes in Dubai, the US embassy being struck in Saudi Arabia, so you feel like it's a domino effect. When is the domino going to fall, and will that domino be in Egypt?
More than any other continental tournament, there is always a sense with the Africa Cup of Nations that it is a referendum on the continent's football generally. Perhaps it's because so many of the players are familiar to those who habitually watch the European leagues or the Champions League, but the question is less about individual quality of players that is a given than it is about organisation and structures.
Here's a healthy dinner idea that's so hearty and satisfying, it will please everyone around the table: this Moroccan Chickpea Stew! It's ultra flavorful: the sweet potatoes get tender and creamy, the chickpeas soak up all those gorgeous spices, and everything comes together in one pot. I love serving this stew with quinoa for a tasty plant based dinner that's also gluten free. If you like, a dollop of Greek yogurt: and most definitely a squeeze of lemon to brighten the flavors!

The most beautiful places in Oman are diverse, stark, and staggering. With ancient ruins, fragrant souks, and picturesque mountain villages, there is no shortage of man-made wonders. But it is the country's geology that delights best. In this desert nation, beauty is defined by water: the white sands of surf-battered beaches, gurgling wadi streams, and cloud-shrouded massifs where pomegranates hang heavy.
On the wooded lower slopes of the valley are clusters of tall houses, some plumed with wood smoke. There appears to be a lot of building work going on, some of it to repair the damage caused by the 2023 earthquake. The sound of a concrete mixer comes cutting through the cool mountain air mixed with birdsong and human voices.
