Forty-six countries in, I'm less interested in landmarks than in the people who sustain them. I report on craft, cuisine, heritage and cultural landscapes, documenting the stories places tell about themselves before they're rewritten, commercialised or forgotten.

On a wind-cut ridge in the Tamil Nadu’s Palani Hills, 79-year-old Isla Van Damme has built a life that resists neat definitions. Isla’s Ridge welcomes guests, but is not a hotel. Food grows here, but it’s not quite a farm. Every object carries a memory, but it’s not entirely a private home. It is, instead, a place shaped by instinct, contradiction, and a long habit of ignoring what is supposed to work. “I don’t do it the easy way,” she smiles.

Germany's Timeless Treasure From the edge of Domplatz, a flight of 70 broad stone steps leads up to Erfurt's cathedral. The ascent instantly draws the eye upwards to the twin silhouettes of St. Mary's Cathedral and St. Severus Church that fill the sky and almost appear to lean into one another.

How is social media changing news?

Social media is revolutionizing the way news is shared and consumed. It has drastically changed the traditional methods of news dissemination, allowing news to spread more quickly and to more people than ever before. With a single post or tweet, news can be spread to thousands of people in a matter of seconds. Furthermore, social media has enabled users to create their own news stories, providing a platform for people to share their opinions and experiences with the world. The impact of social media on news is undeniable and shows no sign of slowing down.
