Whether it’s Miami, Shanghai, or Cuba, as V.P of brand experience for EDITION Hotels and founder of the innovative travel site A Hotel Life, Ben Pundole is seemingly everywhere all at once. For this installment of Pundy’s Picks, Ben enlisted some travel partners-in-crime and EDITION’s friends to tell us their dream destinations, below.
“Il Pellicano Tuscany, a hotel pilgrimage! Il Pellicano is steeped in a history of global creatives and delicious food from celebrated chef Antonio Guida—sounds like a dream to me!”
BEN PUNDOLE
EDITION
“San Marcos, Guatemala, home to Las Piramides Del Ka, a retreat center offering a Moon course—essentially a month-long deep dive into all things esoteric.”
RUBY WARRINGTON
Founder, TheNuminous.com
“Tavarua Island, the true version of paradise. It is home to some of the best surf on the planet, it’s culturally rich, and basically a playground for a kid who grew up in southern California.”
MORGAN COLLETT
Co-Founder, Saturdays NYC
“A pilgrimage around Mt. Kailash with my love. I’ve been dreaming of doing it since I was a young girl. It also looks like a Christmas pudding.”
MICKEY SUMNER
Actress/activist
“Borneo—feels like it would be the perfect adventure combining a rich and diverse culture with natural wonders, stunning beaches, and ancient rainforests. And of course: it’s home to orangutans.”
CAROLINE LEVER
The London EDITION
“The Andes, to learn more about the ancient musical instruments, how they got there, and why?”
MAX SILVA (LEMURIAN)
Music producer/DJ
“I long for places with magic in the air, following the lead of artists, explorers, witches, and shamans. New Mexico is next on my list.”
ZUZANNA BUCHWALD
Creative goddess, explorer
“Cappadocia in Turkey has taken over my wanderlust daydreams: the views, and watching the hot air balloons rising into the sky seems straight out of a fairytale. There are also the cave hotels, the Pamukkale, and the Grand Bazaar!”
ROCKY BARNES
