In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, most people can only dream about escaping to the quiet isolation of the rural countryside. French photographer
Sometimes in between our jobs, families-everyday life, we hope and dream of escaping to an isolated countryside. Well, Antoine Bruy, a French Photographer, made that dream reality by hitchhiking from the year 2012 to 2013, across Europe. He wandered through some remote mountain regions with no fixed route or destination in mind. On his way, […]

Immerse yourself in the vibrant tapestry of colour that captures the essence of the Machair's unique beauty. This striking print, inspired by the Yellow rattle, a characteristic wildflower of the Outer Hebrides, conjures a sense of the tranquil yet untamed Scottish wilderness. With bold strokes and an exuberant use of cadmium yellow, ultramarine and white, the artwork evokes a bright summer's day when the flora is in full bloom against a clear sky. The canvas is awash with hues that mirror the luminous golden fields native to this coastal habitat. In the foreground, the yellow and amber tones blend harmoniously, dotted with elements of green, capturing the wild and natural growth of the Yellow rattle amidst the grasses. Although this work is firmly anchored in the Color Field tradition, the subtle suggestion of distant hills and a serene azure sky introduces a delicate balance of abstract and realistic elements. The viewer's eye is led through the lush fields to the expansive sky overhead, where dynamic and soft brushwork combine to illustrate the fleeting clouds. This print is a celebration of Scotland's floral splendour and a testament to the beauty that can be found in the simplest of wildflowers. Offering a moment of calm and contemplation, this piece is a perfect homage to the serene landscapes and the riot of colour that is the Machair in full bloom.
Country house meets safari lodge north of Cape Town with a spa, eco-adventures and archaeological sites Sorry, lions. Animals aren’t the only stars of this 16-room all-inclusive luxury eco-lodge on 18,532 predator-free acres bursting with 750-plus species of native flora. Instead it’s equal parts adventure (hiking, mountain biking, canoeing, rock-climbing, fly-fishing, archery, swimming), culture (regional Heritage Centre, botanical tours, 10,000-year-old San Bushman rock paintings), and indulgence (Rooibos-infused spa treatments, organic food and wine weekends) that propel this Relais & Chateaux-approved property into the best-of-the-best African lodges. Colonial elegance pervades the rooms, spread over whitewashed, thatched roof Cape Dutch buildings and an 1843 manor house.

One swift kick. The frustration of the last ten months had come to a head and with all the patience of a 3-year-old, I took it out on the side of the tub with one quick kick. Tubs are unforgiving. My ankle began to swell with shades of blue and purple and soon I couldn’t bear any weight on that foot. For the next two days, I hopped and hobbled around, painfully aware that my heart needed fixing more than my ankle. I’d been wandering a wilderness of isolation and waiting after we moved from a town I loved to
