Hi there!Belated Happy New Year! I realise that it has been quite a while since you last heard from me. 2022 was a weird year for me. It started out full of promise with lots of exciting travel planned and I was ready to become a full-time digital nomad. However circumstances changed and I spent most of the year in the Borders of Scotland caring for my parents. My head was so full of ensuring my parents were okay that my creativity and writing nosedived and I hardly wrote any posts during the year. The Blog and Travel in 2022Despite my carer role, I did mange a few trips in 2022, so I have plenty of writing to catch up with. Look out for posts about my trip to Sri Lanka, visiting Tuscany in Italy, exploring the Czech Republic, a long weekend Mallorca, my amazing rail trip around Historic Thermal Towns in Europe, how Madagascar nearly broke me and my last trip which was to Botswana. Discovering the Culture & Women of Morocco February 2023My first trip of the 2023 is in conjunction with Hafsa Gaher from Archer Gaher Adventures. We are taking a group of women on an 8-day tour of Morocco. The trip starts in Casablanca and wends it way down to Marrakech via Rabat, the blue city of Chefchaouen, Fez and over the Atlas Mountains. Along the way we will be immersing ourselves in the local culture and celebrating the women who live there. There are still a couple of places left, so if you would like to join us, click the button below for more information. It would be amazing to meet you in Morocco!

Silver Sunday Sojourn #1 An Italian State of Mind Hello there! I've been thinking about how I want these emails to feel. Rather than simply telling you what's new on The Silver Nomad, I'd like them to be somewhere I can share more of the things that make me want to travel in the first place... People, experiences, food, culture, books, photographs and those little discoveries that send me down a travel rabbit hole. THIS WEEK'S SOJOURN The Italy we sometimes miss It's this side of Italy that I...
Ayurveda, Slow Travel & a Summer Festival BLOG INSTAGRAM TIKTOK X FACEBOOK Hey there, Reader This week I’ve been thinking a lot about slower ways of travelling — the kind that leave you feeling restored rather than exhausted. One of the experiences that has stayed with me most over the years has been discovering Ayurveda in India and Sri Lanka. It’s far more than spa treatments and herbal oils; it’s a centuries-old approach to wellbeing that encourages you to slow down, reconnect, and travel...
From India to Sri Lanka Travels & Updates from The Silver Nomad BLOG INSTAGRAM TIKTOK X FACEBOOK Hi there, Reader August has been a whirlwind of colour, culture and discovery! I’ve been travelling through India, exploring the temples of Tamil Nadu, the tranquil backwaters of Kerala, and the fascinating history of Madhya Pradesh.
