EDITOR'S NOTE
Welcome to Escape-Ology, the first edition of the new travel and lifestyle magazine from Emotional Escapes, the luxury villa rental company.
Renowned for our commitment to providing exceptional levels of comfort and quality, we know that our customers expect the exceptional. Offering some of the most beautiful villa rentals in many of the most desirable locations in the world, Emotional Escapes does things differently - we look on ourselves as your Travel Guardian, providing the potential to ensure that each day is special and that your precious memories live on, long after the holiday is over.
But just because one holiday is over, it doesn’t mean that you can’t start dreaming about the next one. And with that in mind, we were inspired to launch Escape-Ology.
Reflecting the high levels of quality and comfort that our discerning clients have come to know and love when they choose Emotional Escapes, Escape-Ology will inspire you to dream all year round.
In this inaugural edition of Escape-Ology, we’re on the trail of one of the most luxurious ingredients in the world, the much sought after black truffle - read about the history of this fabulous fungus as Carolyne Kauser-Abbott goes on a truffle hunt with the experts in Provence. We also have an insider’s guide to some of the speciality coffees only to be found in Italy and a short, but very sweet, visit to Paris and patisserie Ladurée, famed for its delicious macaroons and pastries.
With the ski season now well underway, we list twenty ways to ensure that you enjoy all of the pleasures of off-piste Chamonix. Nicola Lavin, shares tips gleaned from fellow travellers for the latest in cabin bags and we have a roundup of the best Priority Passes that allow access to some of the world’s most comfortable airport lounges.
We very much hope that you enjoy this first edition of Escape-Ology - do let us know about anything you’d like to see featured in future editions. And, remember, with Emotional Escapes you will find comfort, luxury and endless relaxation in abundance. Sweet dreams, until the next time!
