Hello Foodies,
You all know that we are big proponents of experiential travel and we have found a kindred spirit. TDF is excited to tell you about a new travel magazine, called AFAR!
We enjoyed meeting the founders, Greg Sullivan and Joe Diaz, last week at an event promoting the pilot of a possible new travel show called, Confessions of a Travel Writer.
For these two, experiential travel is a way of life. The idea for a travel magazine came as they were enjoying a Kingfisher beer on a beach in Goa, India. The mission for Afar is simple and wonderful - to inspire and guide those who travel the world seeking to connect with its people, experience their culture, and understand their perspectives.
When I asked Joe what the response has been like in launch week, he said, "The response to AFAR is overwhelming. It reinforces the notion that there is a need for a travel magazine like this in the marketplace--one that connects you to the people and cultures of the world. To see readers resonating with AFAR is quite rewarding." Get your self a copy off a newstand for $4.99 as this new mag is scheduled to be published six times per year.
