The DL: This shampoo looks like a great save for those seemingly endless travel delays around the holidays. You never know when you might need to crash in an airport chair, sans shower facilities, during long layovers or flight cancellations. Speaking of winter getaways, we’ve got the scoop on five fabulous veg-friendly ski chalets around the world for some seasonal fun. Staying stateside? Check out the beautiful Catskill Mountains in Upstate NY for a change of pace—think adorable rescued animals, scrumptious veg food, and kitschy hotels. With so much to do, there’s no reason to let the cold weather keep you in hibernation this winter.
