As I look ahead to 2026, I’m reminded that travel has given me access to extraordinary places – and the moments I’ve valued most were always about the people.

I am excited to share that I’ll be joining Sahā Quest as an Advisor and partnering with its founder, Umang Bengali, to help craft exceptional experiences for its members.

Umang Bengali, founder of Sahā Quest

Sahā Quest is a members-only global friendship club for accomplished adults, built through boutique small-group travel and intimate experiences around the world – designed with structured repetition that real friendships require. What drew me in is their focus on something many struggle with: building lasting friendships in adulthood.

Through carefully curated experiences spanning art, food & wine, and wellness, Sahā Quest is creating the environment for relationships to actually form and mature.

I am excited to help shape trips, partnerships, and experiences that reflect depth and taste, all while encouraging genuine human connection. More to come soon. Wishing you all a very Happy New Year, Bill Tomicki, Editor, ENTREE TRAVEL NEWSLETTER
