'Italy" Lodestars Anthology

Lodestars Anthology is an independent magazine-meets-journal for curious travellers who long to be inspired, see the world and meet interesting characters along the road.

Awash with Renaissance grandeur, Italy is a place of passion and beauty where more than a single city is eternal. Here every corner is steeped in history and the country’s artistic and culinary lineage calls to travellers old and new. Italy’s waterways and olive-dotted hills may be immediately recognisable, yet it constantly defies expectations - often in the most enchanting way possible.

'Extraordinary, really beautiful coffee table objects... incredible, gorgeous photographs,' quotes BBC Radio 4.

Lodestars Anthology is an independent magazine-meets-journal for curious travellers who long to be inspired, see the world and meet interesting characters along the road. Focusing on one country per issue, Lodestars is a scrapbook of place, a magazine that goes deep into the heart of a location and uncovers its quirks, flavours and splendor, taking a truly personal, beautifully crafted and slow approach to the art of travel journalism.

With stunning photography, thoughtful and beautifully written stories, and original illustrations - produced in Bristol by a small independent press with an eye for detail and a love for print – Lodestars is a thing of beauty in its own right. You’ll probably want to keep it atop a coffee table, or perhaps you’ll want to fill it with scribblings and notes and stow it away in your travel bag for inspiration whilst on the road.
