Monocle’s snowiest title of the year has bracing takes on diplomacy, hospitality, art and design from the world’s peaks and cooler climes. We visit Europe’s best Christmas markets for a masterclass in festive hosting, ask the former first lady of Iceland what she thinks draws tourists to the country, and find out about the artworks dotting Utah’s Powder Mountain. Grab a pair of salopettes and some Glühwein, we’re hitting the slopes.
