View in browser A Trip Around the Planet November 12, 2023 SPONSORED BY This week: Local flavor to the max Eat where the locals do One of my favorite things about planning a trip is mapping out where I'm going to eat.  That’s why I’m thrilled about our new series called Local Bites, where our in-destination contributors offer their recommendations for the best places to eat in their cities and neighborhoods. Dive into the best brunch spots in Lisbon, find a Michelin-star recommendation in East London, or discover the “you have to know it is there to find it” bar in Bangkok – there are lots of gems to visit.  And it's always easier to find these places if you speak some of the language. For a limited time, our friends at Babbel are offering an amazing sale: up to 55% off a Babbel subscription. It’s a great way to access bite-sized 10-minute language lessons for real-world use, so you can place your food order with confidence.  — Melissa Yeager, Senior Editor Check out Bangkok's Local Bites  The week's top stories How do I increase my odds of seeing the northern lights?
