Travel writing


Have laptop. Will travel…


Over my long career as a journalist, Ive been lucky enough to indulge my passion for travel. From the plains of east Africa to the gorse-laden rolling landscape of the Irish midlands, and from genteel walking holidays in southern Italy to boisterous weekends in bawdy Hamburg, I’ve written about them all
I’m always on the lookout for the next opportunity to hit the road, so if you’d like to arrange a commission or work with me on a travel project, hit me up via the Contacts page.
