Story
Not everything that glitters is gold—which is why Ben Aitken went to Wolverhampton for the weekend. Over the next year, the bestselling author of A Chip Shop in Poznan and The Gran Tour visited twelve of the least popular spots in the UK and Ireland for a city break, as ranked by national tourism boards. The motivation wasn't to take the biscuit or stick the boot in, but to seek out the good stuff, to uncover the gems, to have a nice time. By doing so, he hoped to demonstrate that anywhere—like anyone—can be interesting and nourishing and enjoyable if approached in the right fashion.

Captivated and guided by the secrets of place names, he finds their stories entangled with his own explorations of places through birds all across England.

Story
“Helsinki, the capital of Finland, boasts a rich and diverse history that dates back to its founding in 1550. Originally established by King Gustav I of Sweden, the city was intended to compete with the growing city of Reval (now Tallinn, Estonia). Initially, Helsinki struggled to develop due to its remote location and harsh climate, but it gradually evolved into a significant trading post. Throughout the 16th and 17th centuries, the city began to attract merchants and settlers, laying the groundwork for its future growth.”

Story
"Il cammino portoghese. Parto o non parto? Alla fine, sono partito." La proposta casuale di un amico e la nostalgia dei trekking a piedi superano la diffidenza verso il Camino de Santiago, che ogni anno attira migliaia di viaggiatori, mossi ora da spirito di avventura, ora da fede, ora dal desiderio di raccontarlo. Chi ha fatto un cammino, però, lo sa: non è tanto l’arrivo a Compostela, Roma o Gerusalemme a contare, ma il modo in cui impariamo a percorrere la strada.
