............................................. Happy New Year! Shanah Tovah! Feliz Ano Novo! Heri ya mwaka mpya! Bonne Annee!It’s been awhile since we last saw you, but rest assured we have not forgotten about you. We have spent the last few months hatching new plans to expand our magazine’s growth andexplorenewwaystobetterserveyouwithlavishvistas,in-depthstorytelling,and provide you with a greater sense of your magni cence in this world.As we move forward into 2017, we ask you to join us on an escapade into the lives of some of the most creative and people on the planet. Sometimes it is not the location or length of a trip that makes a story everlasting, but rather the small decisions and detours we make along the way that re-charts our lives and creates new pathways.In this issue we deliver to you an assortment of personal tales that span the globe and climb the depths of curiosity. Not only do we have a few stories that will make you sizzle, but also a few heart-stopping accounts that will make you sweat.Despite the gore of the nightly news, we are showcasing the glamorous street style of Istanbul, Bangkok’s high life with renowned ex-pat author Lawrence Osborne, a fantastic voyage into the plant kingdom, a Persian feast for the eyes, and a photographer’s surprising holiday with the Khmer Rouge.Although the world is politically on re, we are not afraid to embrace change as we choose to live without fear. We hope you do the same. We can’t think of a better way to start off the new year.Live, Transform, Inspire,- Lauri LyonsFROM THE EDITOR2
