Synopsis
Responsible hospitality connects to rural communities and creates lasting impressions.Travel ennobles the spirit and puts away with prejudices- Oscar Wilde- Travel is evolving, ever more aware of reducing its environmental impact. The next step is a kind of experience that revives rural areas in a sustainable way. A growing number of hospitality venues use only local craftspeople, celebrate local skills and produce, and reinvigorate the land around them. Visitors here are more than guests, they are in direct contact with a whole culture and help strengthen the bonds within the community.In Slow Escapes, sustainable tourism expert Clara le Fort introduces converted monasteries, transformed windmills, and many other enchanting places around the world, that embrace slow living and breathe new life into a region. This book shows us how travel can be a saving grace for the long term. It is for everybody who wishes to be more than a mere consumer of place., With Clara le Fort (Bon Voyage, 2019), gestalten will create an escape title that explores a different side of travel--one which engages with rural areas in a sustainable way. The New Rurals (working title) will showcase hotels and retreats in countryside locations around the world that are in touch with their natural surroundings and local culture. The New Rurals illustrates that when slow living meets conscious and connected travel, tourism has the potential for positive impact on communities and culture.

- 0***- (9)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseStellar Seller—Impeccable Signed Singer First Edition! My purchase of the Franklin Library signed first edition of Isaac Bashevis Singer’s The Penitent from BCDLW Finds was pure satisfaction. Their listing was honest and precise, labeling the book “FINE” — and it delivered on that promise tenfold. Unboxing revealed a masterpiece: supple leather, bright gilded edges, crisp pages, and Singer’s signature standing out clearly.Reliable, transparent, and passionate about preserving rare books.
