Inside Issue 1
Inspired by the travel experiences that touched us, in this issue, we immerse ourselves in stories that show us that, beyond the first encounter, the art of travel lies in knowing how to observe closely. Join us through the rainforest of Tortuguero, Costa Rica, and the Tennessee mountains in the USA. Discover the Moorish legacy in the gardens of Seville, Spain, the artistic zone of Barranco in Lima, Peru, and the colorful truck art on the roads of Karakoram, Pakistan.
In this first issue, our featured destination is Rome, a city full of wonders, culture, and extraordinary stories. Learn more about Italian design, iconic architecture, and delicious fresh pasta, among many other topics. Experience Rome and its most authentic angles as recommended by Romans, editors, and design lovers.
A Chronicle of Colors
Exploring Costa Rica’s Tortuguero National Park
Writer and book author Kate Wickers takes us on a colorful and enticing journey through the Tortuguero National Park, the perfect place to encounter the most striking birds, reptiles, and monkeys while kayaking and witness the beauty of green turtles arriving on the Caribbean coast to nest.
Mobile Canvas
Pakistani Truck Art on the Move
Writer and photographer Rae Hadley, who has solo cycled through South and Central Asia, shares with us one of her most appealing encounters while on the road, the Pakistani trucks on the Karakoram Highway. These beautifully ornated and lovingly adorned vehicles, their style and tradition, are part of the visual fabric of the country.
The Alcazar to Al-Andalus
The gardens of Seville’s Royal Alcazar
Writer Haley Harrison invites us to explore the gardens of the Royal Alcazar of Seville by letting our senses guide us. She explores the Moorish influence on modern Spanish culture, design, and architecture through touch, taste, sight, smell, and sound, making this enclosed paradise a place to stay longer.
Featured Destination
Rome
Exploring the eternal city is a delight on its own. So much has been written about it, yet many more fantastic tales exist. Come with us to explore the city from Álula’s perspective.
Explore the corners of the most charming Roman neighborhoods, discover its fountains and the best cafeterias, discover pasta fresca, and learn about the most iconic coffee makers. Beyond the travel experience, we want to introduce you to outstanding Roman creators, such as Costanza De Cecco and Giulia Giannini, founders of Co.Ro., a jewelry brand inspired by architectural design, as well as Martina Morino and Daniele Frediani, architects who, in collaboration with visual artist Andrea Rinaldi, give a modern and renovated look to Casa Spentriu, a hundred-year-old apartment blending classic and contemporary design.
