This week is a special one for food lovers, because on Friday 16th, the world comes together to mark World Food Day. The United Nations’ theme this year is “Hand in Hand for Better Foods and a Better Future”, a reminder that food connects us: our health, our planet, our sense of culture and belonging.
I have just had to reschedule my planned overland trip from London to Singapore.
The idea was sparked by the TV show Race Across the World.
My husband and I had mapped out three whole months to make our way from London to Singapore, traveling only by public transport. No flights. No rushing. Just the joy (and chaos!) of moving across continents step by step.
If you’ve been here a while, you’ll know what an advocate I am for solo travel. I’ve written numerous blog posts sharing my experiences – the good, the bad, and the downright ugly – packed with advice for those who might be a little more reticent about setting off alone. But lately, life has changed. I recently remarried, and with my husband newly retired, solo trips may become less frequent. Naturally, I’ve had questions: Will I still travel alone? Will my solo travel advice still be relevant?
Do you ever dream of travelling solo but find yourself held back by fears and doubts? We all carry limiting beliefs that could stop us from taking the leap into transformative travel experiences. But the truth is, these fears are just stories we’ve been told—or told ourselves. It’s time to break free!
Travelling on a budget doesn’t mean sacrificing life-changing experiences. For any woman looking to explore the world in a meaningful way, smart budgeting can allow for longer trips, deeper cultural connections, and even a little indulgence when needed. Here’s how to save for travel and stretch your budget while on the road, ensuring a truly transformative adventure.
If you’re ready to take that leap but don’t know where to start, this guide is for you. Let’s explore the factors and strategies to help you find your perfect WHERE.
Today, ten years ago I heard that immortal line that nobody wants to hear when their loved one is in surgery.
Have you been dreaming about exploring the world, but don’t know where to begin? For many women, the idea of travelling can be both exciting and a little overwhelming. But travel isn’t just about seeing new places. It’s also about self-discovery, stepping outside your comfort zone, and experiencing life in new ways.
How are your plans for the Christmas break shaping up? Christmas for me usually means spending time with family, but this is not without its challenges, bearing in mind we live at opposite ends of the world (they are in Australia).
I aim to inspire women in mid-life to embrace the power of solo travel. I have been a passionate traveller for more than 30 years having visited over 80 countries across 6 continents. Here I share my travel tales, tips & recommendations to help you rediscover yourself while exploring the world. I’d love for you to join me on the journey.
Lets find YOUR next adventure!
