Links we love: October

See what we're loving in travel this month.

Here’s a round-up of what we've been reading, watching, and loving in travel this month:

It’s no secret: The off-season is one of our favorite times to travel, and it’s not just about saving money—though that’s a bonus! Travel pros all over rave about the benefits.

Pretend you’re walking through Mykonos with this time-lapse video, or join the party with a live look inside of Dublin’s Temple Bar.

Start following Jessica Nabongo on Instagram for some serious travel inspo. She’s the first black woman to visit every country!

Speaking of inspiring: our video team sat down with Disney animator Glen Keane—this year's EF Global Leadership Summit headliner—to talk about travel changed his work.

Would you try Glenlivet's new whiskey pods on a trip to Scotland? We're somewhat torn.

My trip in ten words: “The food was amazing. Pizza! I still dream about it.”— Copywriter Laura on her Food & Wine tour of Sicily
