Travel Features & Travel Report Writing
For travel publications, I’ve written on wellbeing traditions in the Czech Republic’s West Bohemian Spa Triangle, an 11th-century Tuscan castle, my solo couch-surfing trip in Sweden, and mindful moments in Scotland’s wilds.
For consumer insight practices and trend forecasting agencies, I’ve compiled case studies on luxury brands and emerging apps, explored Gen Z’s online travel behaviours and considered the future of sustainable travel.
