Twenty years of travel. One experienced storyteller.

I’m a freelance travel writer and journalist from Cornwall, UK, specialising in slow, solo and sustainable travel.

As a full-time house sitter, I travel slowly, slotting into neighbourhoods and routines I didn’t know existed. When I write about places or people, it comes from a genuine understanding and two decades of global travel.
