travel writer

Bob Barnes is a former school teacher turned food and beverage writer in Las Vegas. He's written for Gayot, Vegas Seven, Las Vegas Magazine, Celebrator Beer News, and more. And he's here with us to talk about his very, very specific fear of heights, particularly when his feet are not supported (think ski lift). To help him cope with his very rational fear of falling from such great heights (what up, Postal Service?), we crack open a few Able Baker Infamy 2403s, which happen to be barrel-aged imperial porters. We also spend time talking about the history of the Las Vegas beer scene, which has changed dramatically since the 90s. It's gonna be a fun ride. Keep your hands and (especially) legs inside the cart at all times, Bob!

Traveling is all about exploring a certain place, its culture, food, monuments; catching a vibe and returning with luggage and souvenirs. The only ritual post that is to unpack and get back to life. But for Divia, it is all about unpacking the brain and memory of all the input it has had in the days of travel and purging them into a document which will be dissected and published, and bits of it will find their way into social media and be immortalized forever.
Yes, she is Divia Thani- now the global editorial director with Conde Nast Traveler has lived an enviable life as a travel writer. Looking forward to her latest role and shifting to London for the same very soon, Divia joins Gauri to discuss all things travel. They talk about the experience and joy of new places, the freshness of it; of food and hospitality and the changes in recent times due to the pandemic. She touches upon topics like eco-tourism and sheds light on what makes for a great travel writer.
Sit back and relax, you'll surely have 2 more glasses for this round!

Sarah Tucker is a travel journalist, broadcaster and author.  She teaches yoga in schools and clubs in South West London and Surrey.   She’s won awards for her writing and broadcasting, and written best-selling novels, produced TV, radio and newspaper reports on her travels around the world, and written novels on events which make an impression on her – not usually a good impression. But she always sees the funny side.

She’s presented reports for the BBC Holiday Programme, anchor for ITV day time travel shows and done numerous travel expert slots with bonkers haircuts and bad make-up. 

She devised, presented and co-produced her own travel series on Jazz Fm, with her one-year-old sitting in the corner, who she then proceeded to travel with until he was eighteen.  She’s reported for Classic Fm, co-presented the Share Radio Travel Guide with Simon Rose on Share Radio and is travel editor of the Richmond magazine and Radio Gorgeous.  She writes regularly for Om Yoga magazine and Top Sante. 

In this episode Sarah shares some of her amazing stories, like taking her young son tiger trekking in India, encountering a bear in the Canadian wilderness, visiting a potato museum  and attending a church service in rural Senegal.  Through it all, she talks about the value of talking with the locals to learn what is most important to them and by doing so leaving a deep impact on her life. 

Sarah talks about how to travel with the eyes of a journalist, going beyond what the tourist books  recommend to meet amazing people, learn about how they live and what they are passionate about to come away with so much more than great photos and fun memories, but with an expanded way of thinking and a powerful insight into other cultures.

Digital nomad Kelly landed her first freelance writing gig while she was on a working holiday in New Zealand. Broke and struggling to find work locally, Kelly was introduced to the online world of content mills and freelance market places.

After falling in love with a zombie-clad Brit she’d met in a haunted prison (true story!), Canadian-born Kelly found herself living and working in the UK. She spent her days looking after three-year-olds and her evenings and weekends climbing the freelance ladder.

Eventually, after more than a year of building up her portfolio and establishing a name for herself, Kelly took her freelance business full-time and hit the road again.

That was in 2011, and Kelly’s been travelling the world while she freelances ever since. We chat about how she balances work with travel, how she feels about the security of freelance life, and why she chose to de-monetise her travel blog.
