    The dream was to discover Turkey…and I made it. First steps in the quince orchard, learning to trust. Next steps on marble walkways, an angel’s wing and some determined dogs!

  6. Episode 10 Thessaloniki: how lives turned upside down touched my heart

    History is not just what happens to a place but feeling into how the people of that place lived and survived (or not) the great events of their time

  7. Episode 9 BARI Bones, bread and birds

    My last port of call is Bari, the Gateway to the East. Many trains and tickets, many towns and trips to reach here. Hardly a holiday but I signed up for adventure not a guided tour. Could be time now tho for some Slow Travel!

    I imagined Sicily as a place of passion, fire, colour and love: it was….but not the way I expected!

    Falling in love happens when magic is in the air, when you feel happy and energised…and somehow you are out of control..in the best of ways! Usually a person but sometimes a place gives you that ‘falling’ feeling.

  12. A Dream Journey

    A travel experience “in a class of its own”. That sounded pretty magical and enticing. I was so not disappointed!

  13. Episode 3: In at the Deep End

    The Journey of discovery has started. No going back now! The first days unfold with what I call a “joy rating”, while a fair amount of the unexpected brings some less joyful challenges too!

  14. Episode 2 : Daunted

    Arriving at a choice point in life, where a change of direction is clearly needed, is the exciting part; the doubts and fears and guilty whisperings which come after, play games with your certainty until Living Boldly wins the day
