Hiya 🤗

I'm Nika—a writer and journalist living on the Sussex Riviera. Proud mama of Julieta (first year at U of York so a free bird for now ;) - ready for some more solo adventures.

Experiential and cultural tourism is my jam—not just seeing places but getting under the skin of them. Walking my way to stories - my feet are wiser than my head, finding deeper connections through the eye of an expert, journalist or local.

And the taste of place: celebrating food, glorious food culture—our universal language—and preserving heritage.

My mission: Blending journalism and travel. Travel inspires empathy—tiny steps towards world peace :)

Empowering women to explore the world. Friendship and freedom.

🌐 Bold Types

Since 2020, I've been building Bold Types, recommended by Hotflash Inc. as “a really helpful newsletter for the intersection of writing, the digital world and entrepreneurship, which can be a lonely place for many of us.”

I've worked with global media and brands, including the BBC, Emap, News UK, DMGT, Bauer, Wizja TV, Foxtel, Expedia Group, Weber Shandwick, Havas, Publicis Groupe. Author of 12x books on health & wellness.

I mentor through the NUJ and host a Writers' Café in Hastings & St Leonards. https://luma.com/WritersCafe

Wall of Love

“I was impressed with how much you connected to people and the place when you were here. You’ve got a gift for it. Not everybody is comfortable striking up conversations with strangers.” — Marianne Lehnis, Founder, The Green Techpreneur

“They should frame this newsletter in the Louvre—simply a joy to read!” – Eoin Whyte, Co-founder, Savvy.

Here to fix your content gaps! 💎

“Two things to say from all of us… BRAVO & AMAZING! It was really engaging and fun to read. This is the reference we should keep for upcoming work.” — Daniel Mondragón, Global Brand Lead, Nestlé, The Science of Growing Up Happy Book.

"Recommended reading for Workforce Futurists!" - Andy Spence, Founder

Gold star for reading this far 🤩
