The best SUITCASE Magazine issues to give this Valentine’s
Day



For your restaurant-loving Romeo (or Juliet)

Vol. 29: The
Taste Issue

They say the best way to the heart is through the stomach, so
why not serve up our Taste issue as a delectable side dish to your
candlelit dinner? An epicurean grand tour taking in wild
shorelines, sun-soaked island and fertile soils, this feast of a
volume features a culinary retreat on the edge of the world, charts
gastronomic adventures in Mexico and Malta and much more
besides.

For your adventure-loving admirer

Vol. 23: The
Adventure Issue

If your Valentine’s weekend away includes bouldering at
Dumbarton Rock and a gift of new hiking boots, slip our Adventure
issue into the bag, too. Journeying from Bhutan’s ancient mountains
to wild walking trails in New Zealand, we take the road less
travelled and escape the ordinary.

For your astrological addict

Vol. 17: The
Myths and Legends Issue

Tracking your love language based on the position of the
Aquarius moon? Struggling to keep your connection when Mercury goes
into retrograde? Gift your other half our fantastical Myths and
Legend issue and they, too, can venture into Ireland’s magical
landscapes, soar above Oxford’s dreamy spires and explore Tangier’s
spice-swirled streets in search of metaphysical connections and
powerful human stories.

For your hedonistic honey

Vol.
35: The Celebration Issue

Was your significant other itching to escape back into the world
as soon as it reopened? Does your Valentine’s Day date include a
night of heavy beats or a last-minute flight to Cancún? Add our
joy-filled Celebration issue to the mix to make your hedonistic
other half’s heart sing. We visit nomadic Kyrgyz communities,
London jazz festivities and colourful fiestas in Colombia and
France on an unrestrained, celebratory gambol across the globe.

For your water baby

Vol. 11:
The Water Issue

This aqua-soaked issue is perfect for marine explorers. We dive
deep into the world’s most beautiful oceans, stroll idyllic seaside
towns and visit cities that revolve around H2O in our Water issue,
taking in Cornwall’s surf, the azure seas of Greece, plus Toronto,
Vancouver and Montreal. Give it to your date and you’ll be sure to
make a splash.

For your spa-seeking sweetheart

Vol. 30: The
Health Issue

Keep your pampered lover supplied with suitable reading material
on a Valentine’s Day trip to one of the UK’s best wellness retreats
with our Health issue, which takes a fresh look at the wellbeing
movement. Moving beyond body wraps and basalt scrubs, Vol. 30
includes horse-whispering retreats in the Andalusian hills,
peace-seeking travels in Japan’s Nagano and rebalancing visits to
Puglia and Portland.

For your community-minded cutie

Vol. 33:
The Collective Issue

This issue is for a kind-hearted boo with a social conscience.
If they’re always switching dinner dates for litter picks and
community-kitchen shifts, our Collective issue will be an ideal
Valentine’s gift come the 14th. Visiting Zanzibar’s seaweed mamas,
the custodians of Iraq’s night train and shamans working on the
banks of a Guatemalan lake, this empowering issue redefines the
concept of community – a perfect read between charitable deeds.

For your free-spirited fling

Vol.
16: The Spirit Issue

Our dreamiest issue sees us travelling to Palm Springs, Seville,
Texas and Tibet in search of boho escapes that promise true
emotional unshackling. Give the gift of Spirit – alongside a bundle
of incense sticks – to your free-flowing Valentine to provide some
much-needed escapism, transporting them to Japan’s Kumano Kodo
trail and Kolkata’s Chhath Puja festival.

For your architecture-inspired soulmate

Vol.
22: The Design Issue

Packing for a design-focused city break to Hamburg on V-Day?
Make sure to slip a copy of our Design Issue into your partner’s
carry-on. Vol. 22 is about much more than just the latest luxury
hotel – inside, we consider how destinations like Bangkok, Tel Aviv
and Detroit are being reshaped as communities adapt to changing
cultural climates. A no-brainer for a love who likes to look at
things from all angles.

For your boundary-pushing babe

Vol. 13: The
Boundaries Issue

Packed with far-flung-destination inspiration and profiles of
true pioneers, our Boundaries issue is for those who like to
experiment both inside and outside of the bedroom. Crisscrossing
the globe from Iceland and Iran to Melbourne and Antarctica, Vol.
13 takes a comfort zone-scrapping romp through the world’s great
unknowns, making it a consummate read for expressive
exhibitionists.
