Henry and Paul
Latin America – off the beaten track

Brazil-based Brits, Henry and Paul bring a European eye for style to their adopted land, yet see it all through local eyes. Think: style on the wild side – they take “off the beaten track” seriously, choosing authenticity over sterile, run-of-the-mill luxury … but without sacrificing all the creature comforts. If heli-skiing in the Andes, diving off Bahia, jaguar-spotting in Amazonia or riding in Patagonia are your bag, these are the boys you need to talk to.

Premium Skiing Expert

Want to ski super-premium this winter? Tired of second-rate chalets or those lovely-but-irritating alpine hotels with their all-inclusive plans and set dinner times? Fancy having your own butler, chef, driver, ski guide…plus a seriously good wine cellar, state-of-the art home cinema, sauna-steam-room-jacuzzi and everything else that makes you feel fabulous? Does such heaven-on-a-slope exist? You bet…. but there’s a catch: there’s not a lot of it about. I have the inside track on the very best and you’ll need to plan NOW if you’re serious about bagging one of Europe’s handful of super-chalets. Christmas is booked by organized types and the year-on-year rentals by savvy regulars but there’s a lot more winter (and, mostly) better snow after New Year…..
