Sitting beneath some of the most iconic peaks in the Patagonian Andes, at the northern edge of Los Glaciares National Park, lies El Chaltén – the undisputed trekking capital of Argentina. It’s one of the region’s most captivating destinations, with direct access to myriad epic trails that offer magnificent views of the Fitz Roy Massif, which rises dramatically from the eastern flank of the vast South Patagonian Ice Field.

Earlier this year, I was given the opportunity to take a three-month sabbatical – a chance to step away from the desk and the routines of everyday life to explore a part of the world that has long captured my imagination: South America.

Eastern Canada unfolds as a journey of vibrant cities, coastal wilderness and deep cultural heritage, moving from Montreal’s historic neighbourhoods to the Acadian Peninsula, the Bay of Fundy and the harbours of Halifax.

On Costa Rica’s remote south-western edge lies the Osa Peninsula, a place shaped almost entirely by nature. Separated from the mainland by the calm waters of the Golfo Dulce and wrapped by the Pacific Ocean, this is one of the country’s least developed regions and one of its most compelling. The journey itself sets the tone. Access is deliberately limited, whether by light aircraft, boat or rural road, and each route reinforces the sense of leaving the familiar behind.

Atlantic Canada seduces travellers not only with rugged coastlines and warm hospitality, but with a cuisine deeply rooted in place, tradition and seasonality. A self‑drive journey through New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland & Labrador reveals a region where food tells a story – of forests tapped for sap, oceans yielding prized catches, and communities shaped by what they harvest and cook.

I flew from London Heathrow to Tokyo Haneda on a morning British Airways flight, arriving early the next day. As we approached Japan, I was fortunate to catch a clear view of Mount Fuji from the aircraft window; an exciting, unforgettable first glimpse of the country and a magical way to begin the journey. Visiting in February, right in the heart of winter, offered a quieter, less crowded experience.
