    Staying Healthy When You Travel

    Dr. Jane Wilson-Howarth's thorough guide on staying healthy while traveling is an incredible piece to add to your travel toolkit. She covers rarely talked-about syndromes like reverse culture shock and offers easy-to-follow, practical advice that could potentially save your life, or at the very least, save your vacation.

    Snowfed Waters

    Following her own quietly gut-wrenching memoir, A Glimpse of Eternal Snows, Dr Jane Wilson-Howarth - Wanderlust's resident GP for the past 20 years - returns to Nepal in more fictional form for Snowfed Waters. Sonia is the downcast singleton-turned-charity worker whose richly drawn adventures in the Himalaya force her to rethink her low self-esteem.
