Travel Agenda: Make Holidays Greener Week; London's Serpentine Gallery; Floyd Bennett Field; Trump Ocean Club International Hotel and Tower; Tribe of Doris's Intercultural Summer School
Today: It's the start of Make Holidays Greener Week, the Travel Foundation's campaign to get holidaymakers to make three changes, from buying locally to turning off air-conditioning and using less water (makeholidaysgreener.org.uk). This is also the first weekend of the summer pavilion at London's Serpentine Gallery, a "garden within a garden" designed by Swiss architect Peter Zumtho (serpentinegallery.org).
This week: Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn is reinventing itself as New York City's urban campground from Monday (nps.gov). Meanwhile, Trump Ocean Club International Hotel and Tower opens in Panama City on Wednesday (trumppanamahotel.com).
In the diary: Learn to drum, dance, sing or relax with wellbeing therapies at Tribe of Doris's Intercultural Summer School in Devon's Blackdown Hills. The mini-festival, from 9-14 August, brings together teachers from across the world (tribeofdoris.co.uk).
