Looking into the short-term lets 'black market' in NYC and Edinburgh. Have you started letting out a property, below board, since the clampdown on Airbnb came into force? Or have you stayed in one yourself? Any insights welcome. #journorequest [email protected]

In today's The Telegraph column I investigate a worrying trend in cities around the world. When Airbnb is squeezed out by strict regulations, a private rentals black market fills the void. telegraph.co.uk/travel/advice/…

Some people question the idea that the Med weather is getting more extreme. It's always been like this, they argue. To challenge this, we spoke to 5 octogenarians who have spent their lives in southern Europe. This is what they said. The Telegraph telegraph.co.uk/travel/comment…

Caught in the right light, at a certain angle, Chioggia can bear a striking resemblance to its famous neighbour across the Venetian Lagoon. I visited to see if there's substance behind the aesthetic similarities, or if looks can be deceiving. The Telegraph telegraph.co.uk/travel/destina…

Which 'travel chaos' reports do you really need to worry about? • €750 for weeing in the sea • Air traffic meltdowns • Angry protests • Empty pools • Just Stop Oil • 100ml mayhem • £97/day to enter Spain • Greece is on fire • e-Gates will fail telegraph.co.uk/travel/advice/…

I’m not particularly interested in celebrity culture, but I’m interested in the idea that they've all decided to congregate in one place. Why Montecito? My The Telegraph piece explores the town where the Sussexes, Oprah, Steve Martin, Rob Lowe etc live. telegraph.co.uk/travel/destina…

We're doing a bit more self-shot video stuff on the The Telegraph travel desk these days, which is a lot of fun and hopefully brings a new dimension to how we can tell stories. This week I went up in Britain's first electric aircraft! 📽️Here it is📽️

Exactly 100 years ago, three British pilots attempted to fly around the world. They encountered herds of elephants, were stranded in the desert and crashed several times. It is an incredible story which has never been told in depth. Until today. ✈️🌎 telegraph.co.uk/travel/forgott…

"So, Louis, we thought we'd call it Specsavers here in Denmark, like they do in other..." "We're calling it Louis Nielsen." "It's a great name but the whole 'should have gone to Specsavers' thing works so well..." *Crunches pair of glasses in fist* "Louis. Nielsen."

Now Dave Gorman, I know Googlewhacks must be two words & they must be in the dictionary. Even so, I thought you would enjoy my recent search for the word "hlæws", plural of the Old English "hlæw" meaning hill. It took me to a French TikTok page about rap lyrics, & nothing more

Lewes is famous for its annual Bonfire procession, but the depths of its eccentricities lie beyond the pyromania. In today's The Telegraph, I have written an ode to the little Sussex town I call home. telegraph.co.uk/travel/destina…

Proud brother post alert. @MrAliDickinson was the creative director of this year's incredible #JohnLewis Christmas advert, which has just gone live! Best JL advert in years? I reckon so. 👏👏👏 youtu.be/55ghIHTaRzM?si…
