My travels were first inspired by my love of the UK, which I take as much pleasure in exploring as countries far and wide. For me, travel is all about the adventure, the people I meet and the food I sample along the way.

Known as Italy’s ‘green heart’ and a beautiful region that is full of hill towns, cliffside castles and stunning mountain scenery.
Located in central Italy, this lovely region is often overlooked for neighbouring Tuscany. But it shouldn’t be – with vineyards, olive groves and mountains, it has plenty of scenery to rival its neighbour.
There is a wide choice of pretty hill towns, from Perugia to Norcia, for those seeking a more outdoors experience. Combined with the delicious cuisine for which this region is famed, Umbria is a wonderful alternative to Tuscany.
Our Italy experts have created and curated these holiday ideas to get you started. Take the time to search through them and find something to spark ideas for a unique adventure.
A passion for travel runs right through every one of our experts - meaning they're always ready with first-hand insight about their specialist countries.
