If you've landed here after the recent Facebook group saga or tuned in after hearing my radio interview: hello, it's so lovely to have you here.
I’m grateful you’ve taken a moment to stop by while I try to answer a very fair question:
What exactly is a travel writer?
The truth is, it can mean all sorts of things. Some travel writers create practical guides or maps. Others, like me, write blogs, essays, and books that capture what it feels like to be somewhere new.
Personally, I’m most drawn to storytelling. The kind that weaves together travel and real life. The kind that notices the barista’s tattoo or the way someone glances at their phone like it holds the answer to everything. I write about those tiny moments that reveal something bigger about the human experience. Philosophical chats about life? That’s my sweet spot. If you're someone who loves to people-watch, I’ll bet those kinds of stories speak to you too.
Maybe it’s no surprise that I’ve found my peace in writing. Somehow I've ended up running a travel business by accident. My books are rooted in experience, and luckily, I’ve had plenty of them. Enough to keep me writing for years. In fact, there are 19 more books on my list. Yes, it's a lot, but I don't mind at all because it's also my dream job. I'm so thankful for the chance to be grounded (just for now), so I can write more, share more, and spotlight some of my favourite places and hotels. It’s the perfect balance.
If you loved Eat Pray Love or Mamma Mia, I think you’ll really enjoy Look An Elephant in the Eye. These stories follow strong, independent women who are trying to find their way even when they feel a little lost.
And if you’d like a free copy, I’d love to send one your way. Head to Made In Kent Radio or message me on Instagram to enter the giveaway. I hope my words keep you company while you sip your coffee, soak up the sun, and watch the world go by.
