Travel 08 – Great escapes into unknown territory
Up at the crack of dawn in the desert, spending eight hours in the saddle and driving a herd of cattle for 10 days without a shower or a change of clothes. Swimming from island to island in the Adriatic. Learning to work with elephants in Thailand. Rediscovering your youth by retracing hippie steps through India. Shivering through North Atlantic squalls to navigate Nordic fjords
by sailing boat. All-terrain driving in Argentina. And touring Italy in a Bentley.

In this special issue, Sunday Times writers undertake a mission to escape the beach
