THE EDITORIAL TRAVEL GUIDE · ISSUE Nº 014 · SPRING 2026

Travel like you know the way.

HowTo: Travel Edition is a how-to-first travel guide. Every page answers a real question — how to plan, how to book, how to pack, how to navigate visas, how to live well on the ground, how to budget without flinching. We write natively in eight languages, with editors who actually go.

  • 412 destinations on file
  • 248 day-by-day itineraries
  • 8 languages, written natively
  • 68k trips planned

The six lanes.

Every travel question fits one of these. Start where the question lives.

  1. Plan. Itineraries, mood-to-map, when-to-go, what-to-research. The 11pm-staring-at-a-map part of every trip.
  2. Book. Flights, accommodation, the apps that work, the affiliate playbook we don't follow.
  3. Pack. Carry-on, climate kits, gear by trip type, the one item nobody packs.
  4. Visas & Docs. Passports, e-visas, residency, long-stay paperwork — translated, apostilled, on time.
  5. On the Ground. Local transit, money, language, food, safety, the small things that decide a trip.
  6. Budget. What things actually cost — in the actual currency, on an actual Tuesday.

The six destination hubs.

Where to go, sorted by region. Each hub is a curated shortlist with itineraries, country-by-country, and the slow-travel route.

  • Europe. Iberia and the Mediterranean, Northern capitals, the slow trains of Central Europe.
  • Asia. Japan, Southeast Asia, the Caucasus and the Stans.
  • Americas. Mexico City to Patagonia, road trips, mountain weeks.
  • Africa. Morocco, East Africa, the routes that respect the seasons.
  • Middle East. Jordan, Oman, the Levant when it's open, Istanbul any time.
  • Oceania. New Zealand, the South Pacific, the long-haul that earns it.
