In Norway, are Coolcations Taking a Toll? By @LisaAbend nytimes.com/2025/08/20/tra… #nordic #Scandinavian #tourism

@MalachiONeill @outsidemagazine @davidkushner @JohnHuth1 @GarminAviation @Al_Humphreys Thanks for the mention, Malachi. I didn't know natural navigating had a name, but am very glad to learn that it does!

@outsidemagazine @davidkushner @JohnHuth1 @GarminAviation Adventurers like @LisaAbend-The Unplugged Traveler, @Al_Humphreys,Tristan Gooley@NaturalNav are great accounts to follow to help get you back to Natural Navigating-traditionally,with maps,routes,notes, landmarks,heads-up,looking around,going into a pub to ask for help.

Discussing navigating by landmark/orienteering vs. GPS the other day with friends. In aviation, we call it Situational Awareness - knowledge of where one is physically oriented and their general surroundings - much more complete when navigating using traditional navigation. 🧵

@drivacoba Hola Daniel, soy periodista preparando un reportaje para el New York Times. Me encantaría entrevistarte. ¿Te importaría facilitarme algun contacto para que te lo explique? Gracias!

@Operadata You're allowed.

@LisaAbend I laughed a lot longer at that combination of text and picture than I should have.

So, I've started a Substack about traveling without the internet. No Googling, no GPS, no online bookings, no Instagram, no restaurant ranking apps, no Uber, no AirBnB, & definitely no mindless scrolling as coping device against existential angst. unpluggedtraveler.substack.com

Were you ever tempted to buy a one-euro home in a small Italian village? Yeah, me too. For @AFARmedia, @LisaAbend reports on just how that initiative has changed life in Sicily: afar.com/magazine/sicil… #longreads @Longreads @sundaylongread

@Chris_arnade This is really a thing? Lord help us.

These remote doormen are so creepy. About one in ten buildings in this neighborhood have them.

@jsf That is a breathtaking piece. Thanks for writing it.

@sebasfaber @DionMebius @volkskrant Thank you, Sebastiaan!

@DionMebius @volkskrant Niet dat Montero's ministerie geen fouten gemaakt heeft. Maar 't probleem is minder dat "lek" dan 't meegaan in 't idee dat hogere straffen een oplossing zouden zijn (populismo punitivista). Voor wie geen Spaans leest, is @LisaAbend haar stuk 'n aanrader. time.com/6255792/irene-…

Ze is de heldin van trans personen en voerde het menstruatieverlof in, maar vergaloppeerde zich met een wet die zedendelinquenten eerder op vrije voeten stelt. Wie is Irene Montero, het gezicht van de progressieve politiek in Spanje? volkskrant.nl/a-b838deb8 @volkskrant

Irene Montero, Spain's Minister of Equality, spearheaded feminist laws in Spain. Now the government is in crisis. Is it a sign of unbridgeable divisions between the progressive Spain Montero envisions and a patriarchal reality that remains entrenched? ti.me/3YyNj1m

@_Iago_nort @ContraBorrado @TIME Might I recommend reading the article? time.com/6255792/irene-…

@ContraBorrado @TIME @LisaAbend @LisaAbend are you even planning on contrasting your sources? Look at all the replies. Who are you trying to fool here ignoring all the consequences of the laws passed? Does @TIME even care about basic decent journalism anymore?

@ContraBorrado @TIME Perhaps you’d like to read the article? time.com/6255792/irene-…

@TIME We invite @LisaAbend, author of this article, to talk to Spanish feminists who will gladly explain to her that Montero's laws are releasing incarcerated rapists and will allow rapists to be housed in women's prisons. These are antifeminist laws denounced by Spanish feminists.

the proof that a 4-day workweek is the way to go just keeps growing. @LisaAbend on the latest global trials and how HAPPY they make everybody!! time.com/6248369/4-day-…

As travel roared back this year, @Gabecito and I worked with our amazing local experts around the world to update our most popular City Guides. Here are some of readers' favorites. washingtonpost.com/travel/tips/be…

@SAS In changing a flight, I accidentally chose one with a long layover, instead of the one that leaves much earlier. Realized the mistake immediately, and called w/in mins, but agent said I'd have to pay again to change--after I had just paid nearly $300 in fees. Can you help?
