Join SLH on a journey out of your holiday comfort zone<\/h3>\nT <\/span>he concept of the comfort zone can mean different things to different people, especially when it comes to travel. From visiting far flung places, challenging your palette with an unknown cuisine, or mixing up your itinerary with an activity which pushes you, to learning a foreign language or flying solo – transcending your travel comfort zone is an important and exciting part of personal growth which can give you the confidence to explore other aspects of life in a new light. Here, the SLH Team reveal their holiday happy places, and how they will be taking the plunge on their next trips…[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”flickity_static_height_style” images=”17393,17392,17394,17399,17395,17400,17396,17398,17397,17401″ flickity_spacing=”default” flickity_controls=”next_prev_arrows_overlaid” flickity_overflow=”visible” flickity_wrap_around=”wrap” flickity_box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” onclick=”link_no”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn”]\n

Jessica Sparkes \u2013 Head of Marketing & Digital<\/h3>\n

My holiday happy place has always been a white sand, clear blue sea,\u00a0beach holiday<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 spending days lazing in the sunshine, listening to the waves crash onto the beach, long strolls along the coast and eating delicious local cuisine. However, having said that, I have always been one for adventure. I have spent a weekend staying with a tribe in\u00a0Chiang Mai<\/a>, trekking through the jungles, learning about the culture, to also trekking up the volcano, Mount Batur, at sunrise in\u00a0Bali<\/a>. These have both been examples where I have stepped outside of my comfort zone. I really did not like the thought of what could potentially be lurking in the jungle and I am incredibly scared of heights!<\/p>\n

For me, stepping out of your comfort zone is a holiday highlight. The nervous excitement builds up an adrenaline which when the activity has completed \u2013 you just feel pure elation. The next time I wish to step outside my travel comfort zone is to go on a solo trip abroad. I hope to do this over summer \u2013 destinations plus activities yet to be confirmed\u2026<\/p>\n

Alizee Vaginay \u2013 Loyalty Marketing Manager<\/h3>\n

I am the happiest when I am surrounded by my friends and family \u2013 to me, travelling and being able to share these special memories with the people you love is the best thing. Also, I am the happiest when I get to discover the places that are on my bucket list. But alternatively, I also enjoy going back to the places I love! To me, stepping out of my comfort zone would be travelling on my own, as I mentioned above, to me one of the best part of travelling is being able to share this experience with someone else.<\/p>\n

Going to a place where Wi-Fi isn\u2019t easily accessible would also definitely be a challenge for me, as I think having access to the internet is a form of reassurance. No matter what happens during your trip, you\u2019re one call away from help! Lastly, going on a road trip with only one bag to fit my belongings in would definitely bring me out of my comfort zone\u2026But it sounds like fun and it\u2019s also one of the best ways to discover lots of countries in a short space of time!<\/p>\n

Abi Tottenham-Smith \u2013 Head of Social & Brand Content<\/h3>\n

I think solo travel is so important, it\u2019s not just for single people. I would usually travel with my partner or with friends but have always loved the short solo trips I have done in the past, so doing a solo trip for longer than a few days would definitely be out of my travel comfort zone and something I am hoping to make a reality this year in South America![\/vc_column_text][image_with_animation image_url=”17402″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn”]\n

Lucy Kell \u2013 Social Media Manager<\/h3>\n

I\u2019m happiest in the height of summer on the Mediterranean Sea. For me, August equals\u00a0Europe<\/a>, be it\u00a0Sicily<\/a>,\u00a0Ibiza<\/a>, the\u00a0C\u00f4te d\u2019Azur<\/a>\u00a0or the Greek Islands. Us Londoners are so privileged to have these destinations on our doorstep that I couldn\u2019t possibly risk a rainy season somewhere tropical or a tiresome city break during my sacred summer holiday. However, as time goes on I find myself wanting a fresh adventure.\u00a0China<\/a>\u00a0is totally out of my comfort zone, in scale, culture, food, language and landscape. Where to even begin when planning a trip to China? I visited\u00a0Kunming<\/a>\u00a0on a school trip when I was 16, and remember how uncomfortable and delightful it was at the same time. I want to feel that vulnerability again.<\/p>\n

Jemima O\u2019Lone \u2013 Creative Lead<\/h3>\n

I am happiest in the mountains or by the sea \u2013 and travelling with friends. I would love this year to go on a trip that takes me entirely away from the world we have been living in, during the last couple of years. I want to have an assault on the senses in a completely different environment and culture to\u00a0London<\/a>. Really stepping out of my comfort zone would be going on a solo trip to a far flung place. Life gets busy, and everyone has their own idea of the trip that they most need post-pandemic, so why not take a trip of my own?[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”17403″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”17404″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn”]\n

Chloe Frost-Smith \u2013 Senior Content Editor<\/h3>\n

If I can combine my trips with\u00a0horse-riding<\/a>, whether it\u2019s frolicking around an agricultural estate in\u00a0Tuscany<\/a>\u00a0or trekking through the dunes in\u00a0Morocco<\/a>, I am in holiday heaven. For this reason, I have always gravitated towards rural,\u00a0countryside hotels<\/a>, where I can be outdoors all day in the sunshine and fall asleep in a rustic setting after a day of adventure. These sorts of hotels usually have gorgeous spas, which I have always strayed away from out of fear of holiday boredom and missing out on whatever I could be doing outside. I am also terrible at sitting still, so the thought of a 60-minute massage would really be out of my comfort zone.<\/p>\n

I plan to dip my toe into the wellness world by trying an outdoor spa treatment, surrendering myself to my surroundings, and just relaxing (this does not come naturally to me either!) I am also planning my first big solo trip to\u00a0Egypt<\/a>\u00a0later this year which is somewhere I have always wanted to visit, but have put off for various reasons. No more excuses!<\/p>\n

Christine Ehly \u2013 Regional PR & Marketing Manager \u2013 Americas<\/h3>\n

With pandemic travel restrictions and recently having a baby, I\u2019ve got really comfortable over the past few years going to the beach domestically and taking a short flight to the\u00a0Caribbean<\/a>. There, I\u2019ve been happiest when I\u2019m swimming care-free post- cocktail in the crystal blue sea, meditating as I gaze at the horizon. Now that restrictions have been easing, I want to step outside of my comfort zone again, and visit unfamiliar territory, such as\u00a0Vietnam<\/a>. I\u2019d love to diversify my palette by dining with a Vietnamese family and indulging in their home-cooked, local delicacies.<\/p>\n

Juliana Tan \u2013 Regional Director of Marketing and PR for Asia-Pacific<\/h3>\n

I have actually stepped outside of my travel comfort zone before \u2013 I have always imagined myself skydiving after seeing so many travel programmes. The thing stopping me was \u2013 my fear of heights. How I overcame that fear was totally unplanned \u2013 all it took was for a passionate travel companion who spontaneously decided that we should go skydiving that morning, and I knew it was now or never. So I took the plunge \u2013 literally. It was liberating and felt amazing looking at this beautiful world from above.[\/vc_column_text][image_with_animation image_url=”17405″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn”]As I am always connected to social media due to the nature of my work, the next challenge for me would be a tech-detox holiday in a really remote destination. And perhaps I will bring a travel companion to go on more spontaneous adventures. Unplanned holidays, while sounding risky, always end up being the best and most unforgettable.<\/p>\n

Jill Liu \u2013 Sales Manager, China<\/h3>\n

I had the most incredible experience while skydiving, and am happiest when doing something really adventurous on holiday. So sightseeing at a slower pace, like by\u00a0bicycle<\/a>, would be stepping outside of my travel comfort zone.<\/p>\n

Crystal Davies \u2013 Senior Revenue Account Manager \u2013 Asia-Pacific<\/h3>\n

I enjoy active holidays which are packed with outdoor activities.\u00a0Queenstown<\/a>\u00a0in\u00a0New Zealand<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Bhutan<\/a>\u00a0would be my perfect holiday destinations. I would like to challenge myself by spending a half day heli-skiing and snowboarding during the winter, and enjoying some watersports in the summer. Queenstown also has one of the world\u2019s best bungy jumps, which is on my list!<\/p>\n

I also need to remember to slow things down after an active day, for example indulging in a massage in the wonderful spa at\u00a0Eichardt\u2019s Private Hotel<\/a>, and hopping aboard the hotel\u2019s Pacific Jemm for a sunset cruise. Bhutan combines my love for adventure (think hiking, mountain biking, trekking up to mountainside monasteries) with spectacular spa destinations, such as\u00a0Bhutan Spirit Sanctuary<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Gangtey Lodge<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Rosa Mattos Moll \u2013 Senior Revenue Account Manager \u2013 Europe, Middle East & Africa<\/h3>\n

Considering that I come from the tropical country of\u00a0Brazil<\/a>, and have lived in the\u00a0UK<\/a>\u00a0for over 25 years, I am the happiest on my holidays when I can go to a beautiful sandy beach and wake up with the sunlight in the very early hours of the morning, and feel the warm breeze on my face. I always look forward to a nice walk on the beach and tucking into delicious seafood while watching the sunset.<\/p>\n

Stepping out of my comfort zone would be to book a winter holiday in the mountains with lots of snow, and perhaps try to ski for the first time. I am so afraid of heights, and have always been scared at the thought of sliding down a mountain \u2013 it would definitely be my ultimate nightmare but I would love to embrace this challenge one day. On the other hand, this kind of holiday would also be a dream I have always had and never been brave enough to make come true. When time goes by so quickly, we have to seize the moment \u2013 so I have to choose one of the beautiful\u00a0SLH ski resorts<\/a>\u00a0and just go for it. I will try to not let my fear get the better of me when I book my next holiday.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”17406″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”17407″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn”]One thing people usually think is that Brazilians enjoy very hot spicy\u00a0<\/i>food\u2026we don\u2019t!

I will just have to make sure that there is lots of yogurt sauce and water there to help me, otherwise a nice strong cocktail will do.<\/p>\n

Magali Berardelli \u2013 VIP Reservations Supervisor<\/h3>\n

Spending time with friends and family is what my holiday happy place looks like. It doesn\u2019t matter if it\u2019s a summer or a winter escape, beach or mountain destination,\u00a0city break<\/a>\u00a0or an adventure holiday. Just the gathering itself, everyone sitting around a table, surrounded by delightful drinks and great food; the conversations and the interaction a situation like that brings, the learnings about yourself and between each other. That brings me pure joy!<\/p>\n

Stepping outside my comfort zone would be travelling on my own and facing the fear of not getting this feeling of comfort from my loved ones, but the thought of making new friends as I travel is also really exciting.<\/p>\n

Christopher Grime \u2013 Head of Product Integration<\/h3>\n

I am happiest when out in nature and a lot less comfortable in cities (something of an irony when my office is in the centre of London). Fortunately my wife is the same, so on a recent trip to visit family in\u00a0New York State<\/a>, we spent our time split between walking in the Catskill Mountains and the Hudson Valley, plus a few days on Long Island.
