Really interesting article @stephdyson.bsky.social on using AI to plan travel. As mentioned in the article, always double-check information with reliable, trustworthy sources. And consider the environmental impact of using AI too!

Tenby's such a great place to visit. If you have any plans to go back I recommend St Catherine's Island, Stowaway Coffee Co and Tenby Harbour Brewery :) And the boat trips to see the nature and wildlife on some of the islands are amazing!

Thank you Laura for an excellent newsletter this week!

'...they are talking about Greenland as an asset they can strip and own. Itโ€™s not. Itโ€™s a country inhabited by people, with its own culture and extraordinary nature, and a fragile one at that.'

Honestly living in Switzerland is dangerous. I *could* work this afternoon but I could also get on a train in an hour and a half and be in Venice in time for dinner, and frankly today that's a difficult decision when motivation and energy levels are *low* ๐Ÿ˜…

Europe wants you to travel by train. But why is it so complex and expensive? Across the continent, flights are priced at a fraction of the cost of train tickets, hampering the growing number of people who want to travel sustainably. The big question is: why?

Thank you for writing this @laurajhall.bsky.social I've been wanting to know the answer to this question for ages! www.bbc.co.uk/travel/artic...
