Updated November 2022 with the latest tourism policy by the Department of Tourism, Bhutan. Until recently, Bhutan has been relatively unknown. In many minds, it is a mystical secluded place. Bhutan is gaining popularity as a travel destination, owing to the credits of international media features and Bhutan’s skilful management of the COVID-19 pandemic. Over the past fifty years, Bhutan has gradually emerged from centuries-long self-isolation to meet modernisation demands. It has been careful with its choices and decisions on the road of development and progression. While Bhutan has opened its doors to the world, a ‘High value, Low volume’ tourism policy still guides the country to ensure that its unique culture, identity and natural environment will continue to be protected from external influence. Bhutan Travelog aims to provide readers with insights into the country’s history, values, customs, as well as travel tips and recommendations. This book also includes 9 exclusive first-hand stories from diverse travellers who have been to Bhutan to provide a glimpse into this idyllic country.

Imagine having dreams that interconnect over decades, telling a story that takes you on a tour of the past, present and future. Imagine knowing untold secrets of creation and where we are all heading after death. Imagine traveling to other planets in other galaxies whereas their life and technology is way ahead of us. In this book Shahrzad Mirgholikhan, the author of Shahrzad: The True Story and The Power of the Pen vs. weapons, opens a window into the unknown. She has fastidiously recorded her dreams since she was a young girl after Islamic Republic revolution in Iran, throughout her 5 years in US federal prisons, and her return to Iran until 5 years of living in Oman. Now in exile, Shahrzad reveals the secrets of how religion has been meddled with and how the faithful are being exploited. As the battle between Iblis’s spawn and the sons and daughters of Adam and Eve rages on and she waits to be reunited with her maker, Shahrzad is determined to warn mankind that time is fast running out.

Beyond the Happening uncovers the heterogeneous, uniquely interdisciplinary performance-based works that emerged in the aftermath of the early Happenings. By the mid-1960s Happenings were widely declared outmoded or even ‘dead’, but this book reveals how many practitioners continued to work with the form during the late 1960s and 1970s, developing it into a vehicle for studying interpersonal communication that simultaneously deployed and questioned contemporary sociology and psychology. Focussing on the artists Allan Kaprow, Marta Minujín, Carolee Schneemann and Lea Lublin, it charts how they revised and retooled the premises of the Happening within a wider network of dynamic international activity. The resulting performances directly intervened in the wider discourse of communication studies, as it manifested in the politics of countercultural dropout, soft power and cultural diplomacy, alternative pedagogies, sociological art and feminist consciousness-raising.

Designed to be approachable from several different levels and perspectives, this book uses a travel analogy to integrate educational planning into the career planning process. Two assumptions underlie the author's approach: an essential driving force of career development is the search for meaning, and the most generative concept of career planning is that of discovering your way. This practical yet comprehensive book is based on a set of straightforward career planning principles and offers readers the maps they'll need to find and select the right career.

This volume brings together twenty-two authors from various countries who analyze travelogues on the Ottoman Empire between the fifteenth and nineteenth centuries. The travelogues reflect the colorful diversity of the genre, presenting the experiences of individuals and groups from China to Great Britain. The spotlight falls on interdependencies of travel writing and historiography, geographic spaces, and specific practices such as pilgrimages, the hajj, and the harem. Other points of emphasis include the importance of nationalism, the place and time of printing, representations of fashion, and concepts of masculinity and femininity. By displaying close, comparative, and distant readings, the volume offers new insights into perceptions of "otherness", the circulation of knowledge, intermedial relations, gender roles, and digital analysis.
