From what to know about travelling post Brexit over artisans in Chichester to Aomori in Japan - this week we take you around the world.
Dear kopral,
From 1 January 2021 the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the European Union looks set to impact travellers in a variety of ways. We've looked at frequently asked questions about Brexit and its impact on your travel plans.
Closer to home, plenty of folks have been getting creative while hunkering down at home during coronavirus, but what about local artisans? This week, Rough Guides author Gemma Lake caught up with a clutch of craftsmen and women based in Chichester. These talented individuals – creating beautiful ceramics, bound books, glass pieces, musical instruments and even soap – are frequently inspired by the natural world around them. Check out their stories, and remember that there's never been a more important time to support local, independent businesses.
If you're still dreaming about your next big trip, look no further than Aomori in Japan. With spellbinding landscapes and hiking galore, there's plenty to see whatever the season, from the cherry blossoms of spring to dazzling summer sun, fiery autumn leaves and winters blanketed in snow. Read on to discover why Aomori is Japan's best year-round destination.
Have fun,

What kind of passport changes will we face, will we need a visa to travel to the EU and how long will we be allowed to stay in the EU? Rough Guides author Stuart Forster explains these and many more questions concerning Brexit.
As the seasons pass, Aomori Prefecture presents a variety of faces to its visitors, each one different but no less beautiful than the last. A wild bouquet of cherry blossom swallows the region in spring, while summer is the time to explore the singing sands and floral meadows of the coast. As the year draws to a close, autumn's inferno of red and ochre leaves gives way to heavy snowfall, which smothers the mountain peaks and transforms the trees into bizarre snow monsters, bent double against the winter wind. Whenever you decide to visit, read on to discover why Aomori is Japan's finest year-round destination.
Chichester is best known for its rolling hills, Roman history and nearby beaches, less so for its growing arts and crafts scene. We talk to five local artisans, each with a different story to tell about this district and cathedral city in southeast England.
