A year into extreme challenges, we’re asking ourselves some big questions. Untethered from our daily commutes, where do we really want to live and work? Faced with health and travel restrictions, how do we still have fun? In the midst of so much change, how can we adapt? The answers will be different for everybody, whether you’ve lost your job, gone remote, moved back home, or stuck it out. Maybe you’ll take to the open road for outdoor adventures and history lessons in real time. Work remotely from the beach or the backseat. Find a new town to call home and a new community to serve. The Roaming ‘20s is all about seizing this moment of exploration. We’re talking to creative risk-takers about how they used 2020 to start a new chapter, flip their work-life balance, and have a ton of fun doing it. We’re embracing the nomad in each of us and rethinking the way we live, work, and travel.
Guide to plan your visit to the fun village of Setenil de las Bodegas and with troglodytes houses (Andalucia) - Tips + map + photos + video
The company was the brainchild of Mel Ziegler, a reporter for the San Francisco Chronicle, and his wife Patricia Gwilliam Ziegler who worked as a courtroom artist for the same paper. Inspired by a surplus Bush jacket Mel brought back from a work trip to Australia, the couple eventually left their jobs and began buying bulk surplus vintage clothing–often altering it with new buttons or elbow patches and the like–and selling them at the Marin County Flea Market. When a large purchase of Spanish military shirts turned out to have unnaturally short arms they turned disaster into fortune by concocting the fictitious story of Generalissimo Franco’s “Short Armed Paratrooper Shirts”. A catalogue soon followed with similarly creative copy written by Mel and illustrations of the clothing by Patricia. Opening in 1978, a shop in their hometown of Mill Valley, California prospered thanks to their hard work and creative energy; but there were limits to how far they could grow: In 1983 they sold BR to Donald Fisher of the Gap who wisely insisted they remain as the heads of the company with a “hands off” agreement that promised total creative freedom. The infusion of money and manufacturing power of the Gap led to explosive growth: Lavishly decorated safari stores opened across the country, a team of writers and artists were hired to produce full color illustrated catalogues, and a flood of original clothing was designed and produced in factories across the world.

To sweat or not sweat, there’s the perennial problem faced by guys all the time. Let’s be honest – all of us are afraid to annoy our surrounding colleagues and peers with wet and (sometimes stinky) underarms. To prevent this unwanted situation, the Tropika Club team is going to help differentiate a deodorant from an antiperspirant, and explain which one might be more ideal for you. Read on. Simply put, we’ll do whatever we require to do to smell good– or at least not scent bad– yet does that indicate it’s far better to regulate the smell our bodies naturally generate with antiperspirant or to stop the problem at its resource with an antiperspirant?

In 1989, Mauro Morandi’s boat docked on Budelli Island off the northern coast of Sardinia, Italy. Discovering that the island’s caretaker was retiring within the next two days, Mauro decided to extend his stay indefinitely and step into the role himself. Little did he know that, nearly 30 years later, he would still be there. Mauro has built a small, simple life for himself on the island, collecting rain for drinking water, and building solar panels for electricity. Living alone, his love for his island paradise runs deep, and he hopes to stay as long as his health allows it.

And trust me when I say my fellow co-workers and I at REI’s Seattle-area headquarters know a thing or two about getting out of town. Combine the city’s infamous rain with its northern latitude (it’s the most northerly major city in in the Lower 48), and you have a recipe for cabin fever without the cabin. So a midwinter retreat to sunnier locales is an annual tradition for many. Good thing we have the folks at REI Co-op Experiences, our adventure travel outfitters, to turn to for a little inspiration. Well, more than a little: They have nearly 100 trips scheduled between Dec. 2019 and March 2020 alone, and their teams are constantly sending back photos back from their trips, many of which promise warm weather, sunny days and plenty of adventure. And as the Co-op Journal's travel editor, part of my job is sorting through them, which is both a blessing and a curse. Here are a few I’ll be daydreaming of as winter settles in.
