If CNY wasn’t the break you needed, JATI opens this month as a laid-back island retreat off the coast of Cambodia.
Chinese New Year can be a time of joy and togetherness. It can also be the holiday that isn’t a holiday, leaving savvy urban lads lacking the R&R catch up they need to perform at their best.
