A Welsh walk down memory lane

Are you craving the countryside too? This week we're getting back to nature, whether that's at home or abroad. Around six months on from the start of lockdown, I found myself reminiscing about my childhood holidays spent totally off-grid in a remote part of mid-Wales. With its sheep-dotted hillsides, lush valleys and gurgling streams, it's little wonder I can't wait to get back.

Further afield, as part of our Tell Us Your Story initiative, we head for Guyana, a green and rainforested country in South America. In one of the world's most biodiverse regions, we hear about a collection of community-led initiatives that are making a sustainable future possible.

Have fun,

Helen

Rough Guides Senior Editor Helen Fanthorpe reminisces about family holidays spent in mid-Wales, and a lockdown spent craving the countryside.

From managing eco-lodges, to nature tour-guiding, to protecting wildlife and ecosystems, Guyana's community-led and owned tourism (CLOT) initiatives take sustainable tourism to another level. They engender life-changing self-sustainability that benefits local people - and protects the environment.

We caught up with Flavia Santoro, President at ProColombia, to learn more about the country's experience of coronavirus, and what travellers can expect from a visit in the near future.
