Another season, another opportunity to pitch my home.

My light-filled flat in the old town of Margate is once again available for short-term breaks from later in September through to January (when it’s likely to be available for several months). DM for more info.

Are there people at your organisation that would benefit from PR training? I'm running half-day How to Secure Media Coverage workshops in Brighton, Amsterdam, Brussels, London, Sheffield, and on Zoom. More details here:

It's a minute away from the beach, is seconds away from coffee shops, restaurants, a holistic wellness space, art galleries, and a tattoo parlour, and features a freestanding bathtub and balcony. It's available this weekend. DM for more details.

Margate getaway anyone? A reminder that my spacious light-filled home in the old town is available for short-term breaks. I rent out the apartment as a one-bedroom flat but there's a super comfy sofa and airbed available too....

Sadly the adventure will end this summer, but I'll be back in the UK and running my popular Lessons from a Journalist: How to Secure Media Coverage workshop in London in August, and in Brighton, Sheffield, and online in September...

Hola amigas/amigos. I'm now based in Mexico City for six weeks and am open to sustainability/environmental, tech, travel, and/or solutions-based stories happening in the city (and up to three hours away). I'm also open to meeting any interesting people working in those sectors.

Trip highlight: Low-season Mazunte. A simple room with a hammock and swoon-worthy views. Super feliz.

…art galleries, and a tattoo parlour (when in Margate and all).

What's rather heartwarming is that I have two sets of returning guests this week.

DM me for more details.

If anyone is craving a getaway to Margate (and an ethical one at that) or shaking things up and working from a cool seaside town, my light-filled home in the old town is available for short-term breaks from next week. More below…

A few nourishing days volunteering and reporting with/on environmental organisation Chico Mendes in the western highlands of Guatemala.

Buenos dias from Lake Atitlan.

If you're after a quiet place to work from, or some R&R by the sea (I'm a minute away from the beach), then my flat on the edge of the Old Town might just fit the bill. It features a freestanding bathtub and balcony, and is seconds away from coffee shops…

Who fancies a break in Margate? Or shaking things up and working from a cool seaside town?

My light-filled home in the old town is once again available for short-term breaks from the start of April. I rent out the apartment as a one-bedroom flat but there's a sofa and airbed available too.

Two weeks of this. Super happy to be improving my Espanol.

The buses here in Antigua look like juke boxes.

Hanging out & working in Rio Dulce. Worth the bumpy eight-hour bus journey, where the brakes stopped working (till we found a mechanic who helped us all survive another day).

Me gusta hiking, swimming, tubing and caving (?!) so a visit to Semuc Champey, a national park with a series of idyllic turquoise and emerald-green pools surrounded by limestone rocks and tropical forest, has easily become a highlight of the trip so far.

Visits for paracetamol. Leaves with erm…poison.

Needed something for the next person playing loud music on public transport, anyhow.

Not a washed-up plastic toy (though it could have been. There’s lots of rubbish along Placencia’s shoreline).

Reviewing jungle super luxe getaway Boca De Agua.

R&R in Bacalar.

Some recent highlights of my trip so far: exploring part of Mexico’s first long distance hiking/cycling trail.

I’d like to stay in Yucatan just to visit all of the region’s gloriously refreshing cenotes.
January 24, 2025 at 4:17 AM
It’s happening. Yucatan > New York overland via Belize and Guatemala. Five years after my last flight, I’m on my next long-haul adventure. (And still working – and available for commissions). 🌎
