MONDES, VOL III - An Invitation to Explore

 

This new digital hub compliments the third edition of Mondes, Belmond’s in-house magazine edited by ex-Global Editor-in-Chief of Condé Nast Traveller Melinda Stevens. The latest edition of Mondes, explores local perspectives, emerging talent, world-renowned voices and expert opinions on captivating topics from food to craft, to marine conservation.

An emphasis on local experience reverberates through, connecting the dots between gastronomy, art, thought, culture and travel. From articles on indigenous ingredients and contemporary cuisine, age-old rituals in contemporary Siena and a new wave of winemaking in Old-World regions, to cloud-trekking in Madeira and cross-country rail travel, Mondes encapsulates Belmond’s spirit of slowing down in the modern world, respecting history and nature, while unearthing real people and places.

From a visual perspective, contemporary photography brings the pages to life with captures of destinations – from South Africa to Portugal – as seen by Maximilian Virgili, Marco Arguello, Kent Andreasen and Chris Wallace. Contributors include award-winning author David Nicholls, world-renowned chef Pía León (World’s Best Female Chef in 2021), LVMH-prize winner Sindiso Khumalo, visionary image maker Nick Knight, and Cristina Mittermeier; ocean photographer and conservationist.
