I travel the world on a luxury ship for about 8 months of the year with my Cruise Director husband, but I’m not one of the many beautiful twenty-something influencers wearing skimpy bikinis or stylish floaty dresses and chic heels…I travel with about 30kg weight allowance, will wear what’s practical for hours of walking new cities, will have messy hair and wear little make-up…but I will give you the best tips on where to buy delicious warm cinnamon buns, how to avoid excessively tourist priced tickets to see iconic sights and direct you to local sustainability-minded businesses.

Wendy and I gave birth to The Thirty/Forty Something Traveller collaboration one weekend on Brighton beach, after many years of friendship and travel adventures.

For years, I have trotted the globe for one reason or the other. Whether it be working in Europe, Australia, across the pond in Miami or at sea on one of the world’s mega cruise ships. Forever travelling is my ethos and leave no stone unturned is my motto.
