Meet Your Guide

I’m a travel writer with experience of writing for top publishers like Lonely Planet and DK Eyewitness Travel, and my work has featured in Newsweek, BBC, Traveller Magazine, The Irish Times, New Internationalist, and more. An international bestselling author, my fiction has been published worldwide, and I’ve spent years exploring the world—often living abroad—immersing myself in the cultures and places I write about.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with writers from more than 145 countries. A lifelong language lover and cultural connector, I believe travel isn’t just about discovering new places—it’s about discovering your voice. And powerful storytelling can take you anywhere.

I created Travel-Writing.com to be the kind of resource I wish I’d had when I was starting out: straight-forward, practical, and full of tools that actually help. Whether you’re just beginning your writing journey or pivoting from fiction or journalism into travel writing, you’ll find everything you need here to:

  • Hone your storytelling,
  • Get published,
  • Build a portfolio career, and
  • Create a location-independent life you love.

If you’re passionate about travel and writing, you’re in the right place. Let’s get your words—and your travel journeys—out into the world.
