Stop. Travel. Live.
Looking for a laid-back escape? Here are some delightful spots, where
beachfront restaurants, stylish hotels, and scenic hiking trails are all
within reach.
Thank God for holiday leave—the opportunity to a new adventure.
Celebrated in movies and songs, holidays loom large in the imagination.
It seduces us with the heady possibilities of recreation, relaxation, and
romance. It is our eagerly anticipated escape valve, a release from the
daily grind.
For some city dwellers, the allure of a nearby beach or a house in the
country is irresistible. Yet over time, even that can become monotonous.
Every so often, we need to get away from the usual, without making it
seem like work. That’s where Weekendin strives to fill you in. Our Holiday
feature brings you wonderful destinations—our discoveries range
from 5-star golf resorts in Nova Scotia (the second smallest province
in Canada), to being completely out of touch with the western world
in Fez, Morocco. We’ve found 18 great destinations that I’m sure will be
saved to your bucket list, if you haven’t already been there.
Yes! Another Christmas is coming upon us, and it is time to deck the
halls with boughs of holly. For those eager to get a headstart on the
festive season, thumb the pages to our intheHOME section, where
you’ll find Spotlight’s generous array of Christmas decorations.
Follow us acrosstheStraits to Penang and Perak, where we discover the
beauties and wonders of our neighbouring states. If travel isn’t on the
agenda just yet, Weekendin’s inthePINK takes you to SEVIIN at TANGS,
where we experience the unparalleled beauty services of Decléor
Institut, La Mer, and SK-II.
So once again, as I put this issue to bed, I trust you’ll find something
within our pages that will tickle your fancy. Happy reading!
