On my first trip to Colombia I wanted to visit all of the highlights, as well as get off the beaten track and under the skin of this beautiful country's rich history and culture. I was so lucky to explore with some incredible local guides, from the historic streets and breathtaking museums of Bogota and Medellin, to the jungleclad mountains of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta and the mystical islands off the Caribbean coast. Here are just a few of my top recommendations on where to stay and what not to miss.

I have personally experienced wellness hotels and retreats all around the world, including guided meditation courses in the English countryside, luxury spa hotels in the Alps and Ayurveda retreats in India. Here is a spotlight on wellness journeys in India, including my experience from a recent retreat at Kalari Kovilakom. Give me a call to start planning your wellness journey!
I had been looking for a place for a gentle detox; somewhere I could go for a couple of weeks for a bit of a mental and physical reset. Where I could eat healthily during my stay, join guided meditations, and take part in breathwork and yoga (I like these three practices and find they calm my somewhat overactive mind)...
Every time I explore a new destination, whether it’s on an adventure holiday in Peru or a luxury beach escape in the Indian Ocean, I return home full of excitement to share the amazing sights I have seen. Through my own experiences I have developed a love of helping others experience the great wonders of the world; truly getting under the skin of the extraordinary destinations that are at your fingertips. Getting the details right, from which hotel is perfectly located for exploring away from the crowds, to which local guide is most knowledgeable on history or culture or art, is of paramount importance to me. I am constantly seeking out new and exciting experiences and exploring off the beaten track to ensure my clients are receiving the best and most honest first-hand advice.
