Enjoy the discussion in the audio below. I use some of my favourite places where I’ve stayed to work out why we stay where we stay. It might be because you want a warm B&B feeling, like Alda who runs L’arco Antico in Polignano Mare. It might be because you want a luxury resort experience like the amazing Apurva Kempinski in Bali or a full on funky vibe in a daring district like Chow Kit Hotel in KL.

If you enjoyed the discussion here’s a few pics of my favourite places for welcoming warmth, luxury and fun.
