Inspiring and beautifully put together
This is a fantastic book for anyone who loves travel or just enjoys being inspired. It is not a typical guidebook, it is more about ideas, experiences, and destinations, which makes it great to dip in and out of. The photos are beautiful, the writing is engaging, and it really makes you want to start planning your next trip. It works just as well as a coffee table book as it does for sparking real travel ideas. It also makes a great gift for anyone who enjoys exploring new places. Well made, well written, and genuinely inspiring.

The book itself is amazing, however, books of this size and weight CANNOT be shipped the same way amazon ships all other books. This book WILL ARRIVE with the corners bent / teared because it will be bumped around during shipping. Take that into account
