Monocle - Issue 185

The special summer issue is here to carry readers through July and August, featuring a brand-new global urban liveability index. Which cities stand out for nightlife, health, housing, and safety—and which one is the best all-rounder? The answers are in the brightest issue of the year. Also inside: a look at enduring news kiosks around the world, a visit to chef Enrique Olvera at a rural retreat, and a trip aboard the first all-electric ferry in the Mediterranean. From the latest in Hermès timepieces to the quiet charm of mökki cottages in Finland, Monocle covers summer in style.
