The colorful and energetic city of Mumbai – home of Bollywood is featured on Travelife’s July-August issue. Other destinations to discover are the the history and art within Ravenna, Italy; the rustic thrills of camping in desert oasis Siwa in Egypt and on a virgin beach in Calaguas Islands, Camarines Norte as well as a trek up to the crater lake of Mount Pinatubo.

The following are also must reads: Living like royalty at Les Trois Rois in Basel, Switzerland; a Magical Mystery Tour in true Beatles fashion in Liverpool, England; and the best wine cellar in Paris.

"This issue we are featuring destinations that are not normally on people’s travel wish lists," says editor in chief Liza Ilarde. "Being this year’s European Capital of Culture puts Liverpool on the map, so to speak. Siwa is an oasis in the desert between Egypt and Libya. And who knew there was a sulfur-rich lake at the top of Mount Pinatubo?"

It also features the extensive peek into London Heathrow Airport’s spiffy new Terminal 5; striking visuals from Vietnam, Thailand, Laos and other Asian destinations; interviews with internationally acclaimed pianist Cecile Licad, US ambassador Kristie A. Kenney, and Senator Edgardo Angara

Travelife will also present a rare opportunity to see North Korea in a special tour this September 17-24 and the details are in this issue.
