ARE WE FRIENDS YET?
There’s nothing like greeting
the New Year with good news: a
clutch of accolades for
Smile
from
the Asian Publishing Awards
committee. The magazine was
given the Gold Award, the highest
honor, in the Best Wellness Feature
category (“Nature’s medicine
cabinet,” August 2013, on home
remedies you can make from
local plants) and the Best Use of
Typography category (recognizing
howwell all the typefaces in a
magazine work to convey its
essence). We’re honored to have
won these awards and are psyched
to deliver more issues packed
with fun, useful information and
out-there adventures. Happy 2015,
everybody!

We’d like to say that
shooting off the grid
in intriguing Banteay
Chhmar was hard work
but that’s not entirely
true. Sure, it was a
challenge but “glamping
out” in luxuriously-
appointed tents and
waking up to eye-
popping sights was one
for the books. Our highly
knowledgeable and
friendly guides made the
experience all the more
rewarding. Thanks, guys!
