Fabulous Food Markets The best way to feel the culinary pulse of a city, is to head to the food market. Check out the myriad street food stalls, sample local delicacies, and challenge yourself to swallow something you never thought you would dare to eat before. Perhaps a roasted cockroach in Mexico City, or blood broth ‘boat noodles’ in Bangkok. Anthony Bourdain wouldn’t have batted an eyelid.
Kamalaya, Thailand Far from the brim-full beaches of Koh Samui, Buddhist monks have been worshipping at a tiny, candle-lit cave in the jungle for centuries. This sacred site is a dream location for a holistic retreat: mindfulness comes naturally to even the most strung-out guests in this deeply quieting setting.
