So, who are you?
Aloha! My name is Rosie and I’m a roving writer, editor, lifestyle entrepreneur and author of Escape to Self. ABC News once called me “the real deal”. I regularly write about travel and life design for reputable publications on both sides of the Atlantic and I help people work online and travel through courses, books, and 121 mentoring at DiscoverySessions.io.
Where have you lived?
On every continent except Australia and Antarctica. I’ve been fortunate to have cast my eyes on over 100 alluring global destinations but feel most at home under the sun. It’s little wonder I chose Latin America with its blissful blue beaches as my base.
What’s the strangest thing that’s ever happened to you on a trip?
I was hit over the head by a passing policeman in Portugal, found an enormous bejewelled cow carcass on the terrace of a casa particular I lodged at in Cuba and marched through machete-wielding masked protesters while wearing a 23-kilo backpack to catch a bus in Costa Rica. You pick.
You really wrote a book?
More than one, actually. I’m staunchly vocal about life design and authored the positive psychology manual Escape to Self. This book is an invitation to realise, accept and pursue our desires so we may escape to lives that are truly ours, free of social expectation and conformity (get it here). I’ve also written a book specifically for aspiring travel wordsmiths to understand The Art & Business of Travel Writing. Have a peek here.
Where can I find your work?
My words have appeared in Forbes Travel Guide, Travel + Leisure, Condé Nast Traveler, National Geographic Traveller, NBC News, BBC Worklife, BBC Travel, Lonely Planet, Fodor’s, HuffPost, Atlas Obscura, Hemispheres, Brides, Cosmopolitan, Tripadvisor and World Nomads among others.
What can you do for me?
My expertise extends to writing and editing for indie publications and media behemoths, features and opinion pieces, travel writing and consulting, blog posts, researched articles, hotel reviews, elevator pitches and press releases. I’ll engage in all kinds of wordplay. Heck, I’ll even stitch together your wedding speech. Need eloquent prose with all of the glory but none of the hassle? I’ll happily be your ghostwriter. Need a writing coach? Better call Rosie.
Why should I hire you?
The English language is my preferred tool and I am location-independent and know a thing or two about working remotely with multiple clients across multiple industries and time zones.
Where’s the proof?
Each task I put my name to is completed to the highest level and I’m proud to say I have successful, long-term relationships with the bulk of my clients. Don’t just take my word for it though – have a look at what some happy customers have to say about my services. If you’re suitably impressed, get in touch so we can start writing a story of our very own.
