After a high-pressure week of meetings, management and making connections, the best way to decompress is to plug in your headphones and allow a superb selection of tunes to take your brain far away from world of work. Enter the all-new Walpole Weekend Wind-Down: a monthly playlist of tracks curated by one of our Walpole members that will help you transition into a weekend headspace.
Our August playlist has been curated by Carrier, the luxury travel experts who create beautifully detailed, unforgettable adventures throughout the world for its roster of clients (which includes royalty and celebrities).
"Music has the power to awaken the senses. Songs stir up emotions and memories that can instantly transport you to another place, or another time," says Mark Duguid, Carrier's Managing Director. "This playlist was put together by various members of the Carrier team. It’s a collection of our favourite tracks – tracks that remind us of our favourite holiday moments; sipping cocktails at a bar in Mykonos, basking on a beach in the Maldives, or cruising the coastline of Croatia on a yacht."
Established in 1980 and credited by Condé Nast Traveller as having an almost uncanny sixth sense when it comes to curating holidays, Carrier’s discreet, attentive and bespoke service is held in the highest regard. Whether it’s access to the most prestigious suites in the world’s best hotels, polar bear trekking with elite expedition leaders or an escape to your very own Maldivian private island, everything on a Carrier trip is planned to perfection. As you'd expect, that expertise in curating exceptional experiences abroad also translates into curating an exceptionally summery playlist for us to enjoy!
