Book Description
Discover the chic, boutique and unique sides of Copenhagen in this latest release in the popular Curious Travel Guide series. Hygge is the Danish concept of cozy or happy living, and the capital city of Copenhagen very much reflects this warm, communal vibe. Set on the coastal islands of Zealand and Amager, the city feels closer to nature than most other urban centers with its canals and many pockets of green. Hygge Travels in Copenhagen is a comprehensive guide to the very best places to eat, drink, shop and explore in this fascinating city. Go beyond the hordes of cyclists and the Little Mermaid statue to discover sustainable eateries, cutting-edge design museums, flea markets that flaunt boho chic, and tucked-away cafes and bars where you can relax with a hot chocolate or malt whiskey, and a rug to warm your legs. Author Helena Smith shares not only Copenhagen's highlights, but also unlocks some of its secrets, so in no time you'll be living like a local. Full-day itineraries help you navigate the best of the city, while the daytrips section covering Hamlet's castle and a viking ship museum allows you to make the most of your trip. Experience the best of Copenhagen, whether you have just a few days or longer to enjoy the city.

Book Description
A breathtaking celebration of Instagram's premier solo female travel community, featuring 200 striking photographs—most of them all-new—plus empowering messages and practical tips for solo travelers. “For those with passports full of stories, this book carries you away to every dreamy corner of the earth. I can’t stop flipping through these visually incandescent pages to see where I’m capable of traveling to next!”—Caila Quinn, The Bachelor contestant and lifestyle and travel influencer From backpackers in Peru to artists in Berlin to storytellers in Morocco, Dame Traveler celebrates the diversity and bravery of women from around the world who are not afraid to think (and live) outside the box. The revolutionary Dame Traveler Instagram account was founded by Nastasia Yakoub, who was born into a strict Chaldean-Middle Eastern community where women are expected to marry young and put aside other personal ambitions. But at the age of twenty, Nastasia embarked on a solo trip to South Africa to volunteer at an orphanage in Cape Town, which sparked a love of world travel. Recognizing a void in the travel industry, she founded Dame Traveler, the first female travel community on Instagram, now more than half a million strong. Nastasia herself has traveled to sixty-three countries on solo adventures, sharing colorful photos of her tantalizing travels along the way. Dame Traveler celebrates these women with a photographic collection of 200 stunning images paired with inspiring captions, 80% of which have never been seen on the Instagram account. Organized into sections on architecture, culture, nature, and water, each entry features travel information, plus tips, advice, unique solo-travel experiences, and wisdom from contributing globe-trotters to embolden the next generation of Dame Travelers.

* NOW WITH A NEW CHAPTER * 'A hugely enjoyable romp through the pleasures and pitfalls of setting up home in a foreign land.'- Guardian Given the opportunity of a new life in rural Jutland, Helen Russell discovered a startling statistic: Denmark, land of long dark winters, cured herring, Lego and pastries, was the happiest place on earth. Keen to know their secrets, Helen gave herself a year to uncover the formula for Danish happiness. From childcare, education, food and interior design to SAD and taxes, The Year of Living Danishly records a funny, poignant journey, showing us what the Danes get right, what they get wrong, and how we might all live a little more Danishly ourselves. In this new edition, six years on Helen reveals how her life and family have changed, and explores how Denmark, too – or her understanding of it – has shifted. It's a messy and flawed place, she concludes – but can still be a model for a better way of living.
