Let the man behind the successful Living London History blog guide you through some of the city’s best hidden secrets, untold stories and special places in this beautifully illustrated hardback book with detailed maps to follow in each corner of the capital. While London may be full of museums, Jack believes the greatest museum is the city itself, with each street name telling a tale and its rivers, parks, buildings and gardens each having so much to reveal.
Netflix turns its attention to Vietnam in the newly released A Tourist’s Guide to Love. Following a young woman’s journey of self-discovery having recently come out of a long-term relationship, A Tourist’s Guide to Love follows Amanda (Rachel Leigh Cook) as she flips her life on its head and takes an undercover mission into Vietnam’s tourist industry. Filmed on location, the cities of Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh and Hoi An all star, as well as visiting the coastal city of Da Nang, with its sandy beaches, and the province of Ha Giang along the Lo River in the north of Vietnam. Scott Ly also stars, and it’s directed by Steven Tsuchida.
Scottish explorer and TV presenter Alice Morrison takes the reader on three remarkable journeys across Morocco, accompanied only by three Amazigh Muslim men and their camels. Along the way, she finds dinosaur footprints and a lost city, and avoids landmines, quicksand and the deadly horned viper. As she writes, it’s clear that few places better illustrate the reality of climate change than the desert.
A psychological thriller recently released on streaming services in the UK, Marooned Awakening was filmed exclusively in Guernsey, and pays stunning homage to the island’s beauty. Telling the story of an aspiring young journalist keen to leave his island home for a better life in the city who embarks on one final investigation before he leaves, it stars Tilly Keeper, Tim McInnerny and Murray McArthur. Expect to see such island landmarks as Portelet Harbour, Perelle Bay, Fort Hommet, Fermain Valley and St Peter Port.
