L ast Last fall, my husband and I were looking forward to traveling to Italy—I had grand plans of traipsing through Rome, sipping limoncello in the Amalfi Coast, then heading to Sicily to explore the island where my in-laws are from. Of course, with the world under quarantine, we had to put those plans on hold before we even had a chance to purchase plane tickets. Finally, there seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel (a huge shout out to our frontline workers!), and our special travel issue couldn’t have come at a better time. Let us serve as your guide for finding the perfect, I remember my first Art Basel; it was 2014 and I had scored tickets to one of the billowing white art tents in Midtown. Once I stepped inside, I was transported into a orld of sculpture, paintings, photography, mixed m dia, murals and mor . The te t also served as a sort of Tower of Babel as artists from around the world shared their inspirations behind each piece. A lot has changed since then, of course. Miami’s Art Basel has exploded into mushrooms of satellite art fairs, and art walks are no longer relegated to just

well-deserved vacation after an unprecedented year (page 33). Whether you’re yearning to conquer the icy crags of Iceland or watch the sunset from a Healdsburg winery, traveling with a gaggle of single friends or with your kids in tow, we have a getaway with your name on it. And if you’re not ready to hop on a plane just yet, there’s plenty of locales within driving distance. What many of us have also been looking forward to is heading back to the gym or visiting our favorite med spa. In our Wellness & Beauty guide (page 84), we’ve rounded up the best treatments and tips from local experts, from fitness to skincare and innovative procedures to holistic treatments. And don’t forget that June 20 is Father’s Day! We’ve created a special shop guide (page 102) filled with gift ideas to show your dad how important he is to you. I’ve already circled a few items myself. And hopefully, dear readers, in another issue or two, I’ll be able to share just how delicious the limoncello is in Sorrento. Wishing you a fabulous and luxurious summer, Wynwood. Plus, wh could forget the uct-tap d banana incident of 2019? But it’s what makes Miami so, well, Miami. You never know what’s going to happen when you wander through an art walk, festival or swanky gallery opening. For this issue, we celebrate the arts with our sp cial f ture on Art B sel & Beyond (page 27). From the satellite fairs around town to top museums around the world and up-and-coming artists you can’t miss, we’ve covered art in all its forms. The festivals also coincide with the busy holiday season. We’ve curated a truly out-of-this-world Shop gift guide (page 85) for everyone from your partner and best friend to techies and even your fur baby. I highly recommend you circle a few items for yourself, too—it’s called self-care! Speaking of self-care, as you look forward to 2022, use our Destinations feature (page 64) as a travel guide to wellness around the world. We also have great tips for finding calm in your life in our Trending Wellness piece (page 82). As 2021 comes to a close, I wish you all a safe, happy and healthy holiday season. Artfully yours,
