Transported by Porto

If you've ever tasted a warm, crumbly pasteis de nata in Portugal, you'll know why it's not madness to fly 19,720 for a baked good.

I wrote about it in the Aug/Sept issue of Nadia Magazine (click here to read).

  

Magical Manila

My story about this frenetic city, from a media trip earlier this year, is published in the December issue of the Australian Woman's Weekly (click here to read).

Second Philippines story

My story about the gloriously isolated Palawan islands, from the Innovate Travel and Philippines Airlines media trip last month, is the lead story in today's Sunday Star Times Escape section. Here's the online version.

 

Kamusta (Hello) to the Philippines!

Have been so frantic meeting deadlines I've neglected to mention that next Thursday I head to the Philippines on a week's press trip, thanks to the Innovative Travel Company, Philippine Airlines and the Philippines Department of Tourism.

Am particularly looking forward to the 30+ degree heat, and the delicious cuisine. Doing the happy dance.
