So, who are you?

My name is Rosie, and I’m an award-winning travel writer, editor, and author of Escape to Self. ABC News once called me “the real deal.” I regularly write about travel, culture, and the freedom lifestyle for reputable publications on both sides of the Atlantic.

 

Where have you lived and traveled?

I have been fortunate to have cast my eyes on over 200 alluring global destinations, but I feel most at home under the sun (my last full winter was almost a decade ago). It’s little wonder I chose Latin America, with its beautiful blue beaches, as my base. A lot of my writing focuses on Mexico, Brazil, Panama, and the Caribbean.

 

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 bejeweled 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?

Two, actually. My first was the life design manual, Escape to Self. This book is an invitation to all 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 also wrote 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 over 30 publications, including BBC Worklife, BBC Travel, Afar, WIRED, Forbes Travel Guide, Travel + Leisure, Condé Nast Traveler, National Geographic Traveller, NBC News, Lonely Planet, Fodor’s Travel, HuffPost, Atlas Obscura, Cosmopolitan, Tripadvisor, and World Nomads, among others. I also run Press Trip Pros, a matchmacking database connecting press trip organizers with travel journalists and travel content creators.

 

What can you do for me?

My expertise extends to writing and editing for indie publications and media behemoths, features, opinion pieces, travel writing, blog posts, researched articles, destination and hotel reviews. I’ll engage in all kinds of wordplay. Need eloquent prose with all of the glory but none of the hassle? I’ll happily be your ghostwriter. Need a content writer? 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 clients 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.
