On the Road Again!
It's time for some R&R . . .
You guessed it! The Epicurean Vagabonds are on the road again!
After a year in Tirana, Albania, this week we’re packing up all of our belongings (and yes, that means the cheese grater, the wok, the Hermes & Ganesha statues, the Tarot cards, the Buddhas and several tubs of spices) and hitting the road! [To find out exactly what we’re packing, check out our article: How to Vagabond like an Epicurean: What’s in Our Luggage?]
Next Tuesday, we’re headed to Skopje for a month, then we’ll be joining our dear friends in Rome for a few days, a week in Corsica , then Florence, Umbria and Sorrento!
Since we’re relocating and it’s the traditional European holiday month of August, we decided it would be the perfect time to press pause and recharge our batteries! So as of today, our weekly Monday and Wednesday content will be on hiatus until August 30th, when we’ll return with a brand-new, completely revamped Mid-Week Libation!
That said, Season 2 of our Aesthetic Arrest podcast is in full swing! There will still be a new podcast each week! So while we may be taking a little vacation, you can still look forward to our Aesthetic Arrest podcast every Friday without interruption! Here’s our upcoming schedule:
A new Aesthetic Arrest podcast every Friday this month!
Revamped Mid-Week Libations return on Wednesday, August 30th!
New Monday articles/content will return Monday, September 4th!
And if you like what we’re doing at The Epicurean Vagabonds, please consider upgrading to a paid subscription. Your support means everything to us!
In the meantime, if you’re hungry for more content during the next few weeks (especially if you are one of our many new subscribers!), this is the perfect chance to peruse our extensive archive of articles, mid-week libations and podcasts! And here are some suggestions:
