  I'm sitting on the bus to León and the lady next to me is taking one candy after another to suck on while she's talking on the phone at the same time. If there was even the slightest chance that she could understand me, I would scream out loud: FOR GOD'S SAKE, STOP THAT! Instead, I cover my ears and wait for the trip to be over. Of course, such hyperacusis can affect not only people with autism. However, it once again makes me aware of the challenges that neurodivergent people face when traveling. A day later, still in Spain, I grab my phone and start dictating this book to the voice recognition app. A book about how to cope on the Camino de Santiago as an autistic person.

  The New Kingdom of Egypt -...

  The rise of the New Kingdom marks one of the most pivotal periods in Egyptian history, signaling the transformation of Egypt from a regional power to an expansive empire. This era began with the fall of the Middle Kingdom, a time of political instability and foreign invasions. As Egypt struggled with weak leadership and incursions from Asiatic and Nubian forces, the foundations were laid for the emergence of a new, more robust regime. 
  The decisive moment came with the reign of Ahmose I, who is credited with founding the 18th Dynasty and expelling the Hyksos invaders from the Delta region. Ahmose's victory over these foreign rulers was symbolic not only of military prowess but also of a reassertion of Egyptian identity and unity. This victory allowed the pharaohs of the New Kingdom to solidify their power and embark on territorial expansion that would characterize much of their rule. 
  Ahmose's successors built upon his military success. They began to push Egypt's borders further into Nubia to the south and the Levant to the north, extending Egypt’s reach and influence. The New Kingdom was thus defined by an ambitious policy of imperial expansion, which required a well-organized military and a stable central government. The initial successes of the 18th Dynasty laid the groundwork for the period's most famous rulers, such as Thutmose III, whose campaigns in Syria and Palestine created an empire that stretched far beyond Egypt’s traditional borders.

  An Open Door - New Travel...

  'If the mountains secluded Wales from England, the long coastline was like an open door to the world at large.' – Jan Morris
  The history of Wales as a destination and confection of English Romantic writers is well-known, but this book reverses the process, turning a Welsh gaze on the rest of the world.
  This shift is timely: the severing of Britain from the European Union asks questions of Wales about its relationship to its own past, to the British state, to Europe and beyond, while the present political, public health and environmental crises mean that travel writing can and should never again be the comfortably escapist genre that it was. Our modern anxieties over identity are registered here in writing that questions in a personal, visceral way the meaning of belonging and homecoming, and reflects a search for stability and solace as much as a desire for adventure. Here are lyrical stories refracted through kaleidoscopes of family and world history, alongside accounts of forced displacement and the tenacious love that exists between people and places. Yet these pieces also show the enduring value and joy of travel itself. As Eluned Gramich expresses it 'It's one of the pleasures of travel to submit yourself to other people, let yourself be guided and taught'.
  Taken together, the stories of An Open Door extend Jan Morris' legacy into a turbulent present and even more uncertain future. Whether seen from Llŷn or the Somali desert, we still take turns to look out at the same stars, and it might be this recognition, above all, that encourages us to hold the door open for as long as we can.
  Featuring contributions from Eluned Gramich, Grace Quantock, Faisal Ali, Sophie Buchaillard, Giancarlo Gemin, Siân Melangell Dafydd, Mary-Ann Constantine, Kandace Siobhan Walker, Neil Gower, Julie Brominicks and Electra Rhodes.
