"Luckham, coauthor of The Family Bucket List, here compiles 1,000 'escapes and experiences to enrich your mind, body, and soul' across six continents. Classed by benefit and purpose, such as 'relax and indulge' and 'explore and thrive,' suggested activities include getting a foot massage in Shanghai in order to "stimulate your vital functions, eliminate toxins, improve blood circulation, and reduce anxiety," and taking surfing lessons at Solscape, a New Zealand 'eco-resort that emphasizes doing good for the community, your body, and the planet.'" - Publisher's WeeklyMore details
