Postcard from Parrot Cay, by Elena Bowes
What sets Parrot Cay apart from other holiday resorts I’ve been to is the down-to-earth, cool, chilled vibe, as well as the natural beauty of the island and water.

The Grenada Report
Grenada, the Spice Island of the Caribbean, has had a chequered history since Christopher Columbus discovered her verdant shores in 1498. When Hurricane Ivan struck in 2004, it devastated 90% of the island's nutmeg and cocoa plantations, and destroyed homes. But influenced, perhaps, by its dual legacy of French savoir faire and British grit, Grenada has sprung back remarkably fast. Tourism and upmarket developments are on the rise, while the island’s friendly, laid-back atmosphere makes this one of the safest destinations in the Caribbean.

The Vancouver Report
Vancouver is a city with a split personality. Backed by mountains and on the edge of the Pacific, with sandy beaches and hiking and biking trails, it's a place for nature-lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. On the other hand, it's a grungy multi-cultural destination with vibrant nightlife, chic boutiques and a restaurant scene. Neither architecturally stunning nor a place for lots of sightseeing, Vancouver's charms lie in its setting, the friendliness of the people, its laidback atmosphere and the ease with which you can escape into British Columbia.

Just back from the Amangiri
Amangiri is possibly the most beautiful inland hotel in the world. A strong claim but from the moment you arrive, particularly if you have a room both overlooking and leading into the desert, you know you're somewhere very special.

The Charleston Report
Channel your inner Scarlett O'Hara in this beautifully preserved colonial city. The winding cobbled streets and antebellum mansions seem of another time, but this southern belle has a cosmopolitan side too, with cutting-edge boutiques and restaurants. Though its colonial past wasn't always pretty there has been a concerted effort to keep the traditions of the Gullah people (the local black population) alive. If you're not familiar with the American South, Charleston is an ideal place to start.

The Washington DC Report
Even in quiet times Washington D.C. receives more than its share of press coverage. But to those who know it, D.C. is more than just a platform for national and international debate and the seat of the American government. It is one of the country's great cultural hubs, well represented in art, music and food. As one of America's great university cities it bursts at the seams with youthful energy. It is characterised by grand boulevards, tree-lined roundabouts and an eclectic mix of architectural styles.

Just back from Montreal
A hint of Paris without crossing the Atlantic is the way many North Americans regard Montreal, which was founded as a French colony in 1642 and retains the charm of that culture in the cobblestone streets of its old quarter, its...
