48 Trips to Reboot Your Life Part Eight

48 Trips to Reboot Your Life Part Eight

From Shanghai's House of Barbie to the Catskills' Zen Mountain Monastery, here are 48 ways to relax and reboot your weary soul.

 
  
43."SCUSE ME AS I KISS THIS PIE"
Make a real Neapolitan pie with noted pizzaiolo Enzo Coccia, who runs weeklong seminars on creating his hometown dish. MORE INFO

44.HANSEL AND PEDAL
Leave a trail of breadcrumbs as you bike through Funen, Denmark, the scenic birthplace of Hans Christian Andersen and setting of many of his weirdly sinister fairytales.

45.A REAL CAMP CAMP
Pitch a tent and roast s'mores at Rainbow Woods, a gay campground along New York's Adirondack Trail. Afterwards, skinny-dip in one of the many natural swimming holes. MORE INFO

46.TIE ME UP, TIE ME TAIWAN
Bind your breasts at Taipei's Love Boat Lesbians Fashion Shop and blend in with the city's gender-bending tomboy population. It's just like Yentl, but in Taiwan. MORE INFO

47.DYKES WITH BIKES
The great Romantic poet William Wordsworth "wandered lonely as a cloud," but if you've ever wondered exactly what kind of cloud he was, this three-day cloud-watching field trip (June 19-21) in the bucolic downs of southern England might furnish you with answers to this and other of "life's important questions." If introspection isn't your thing, treat the tour as an excuse to spend a long afternoon on your back in a grassy meadow (albeit after a pint of the local ale). The School of Life is behind this trippy excursion.

48.TAKE THE SCOTTISH ROAD LESS TAKEN
The Glen Lednock trail circles the Perthshire village of Comrie in the Scottish Highlands. It's only four miles long, but they are four of the most beautiful miles you'll ever see. Think of a Bob Ross painting but better and real.
