Best business class services

Over the past few years, I've been lucky enough to travel in the pointy end of the plane several times (on media trips, of course, not because I've suddenly come into oodles of cash).

My story about five of the best is published today (click here to read).

Business Class is every bit as gorgeous as you'd imagine it to be (apart from the fact you have to endure the disgruntled stares of other passengers when they board you first). But the whole experience is so divine it makes it difficult to turn right when boarding the plane ever after. If my surname was Zuckerberg, it's how I'd travel all the time.

Terrific Toronto

One of three Toronto stories from the Adventure World media trip last year is published in the  NZ Woman's Weekly (click here to read).

Btw, check us out sitting in the first O of the iconic Toronto sign...

WOW

Back in September, you may recall, I scored two media tix to the opening night of the WOW spectacle.

That story is published in this week's NZ Woman's Weekly (click here to read).

First Canberra cab off the rank

Back in July, you may recall, Singapore Airlines sent three journos to Canberra to publicise the new Wellington-Canberra-Singapore route.

My first story from that famil was published in last week's NZ Woman's Weekly Magazine (click here and here to read).

The King and I

My story on Graceland, which I visited last year as part of a Trafalgar media trip, is published in this week's NZ Woman's Weekly to coincide with the 39th anniversary of Elvis' death (today, as it happens). Click here to read.

    

Two NZ Woman's Weekly stories

Still playing catch up but two of my stories are in this week's NZWW - the first a travel piece on Seville (click here to read) and the second a story on a farmer who started a pure wool blanket business from her 1700ha farm.

Cue location envy at the farm's location - 50km from the nearest city. Oh to be able to live somewhere so remote and beautiful.

     

The nicest man in Wellington

A couple of weeks back, the photographer, make-up artist and I schlepped up to Hataitai to interview a couple who had set up a foundation to test kids eyes and provide glasses where needed.

They were the loveliest people ever, plus they baked for us! As Neil the photographer said, in 25 years of snapping for women's mags, no interview subject has ever baked for him.

The story is in this week's NZ Woman's Weekly (click here to read).

 

The need for speed

My story on the Ferrari and Ducati museums in Bologna is one of two stories I have in this week's NZ Woman's Weekly (click here to read).

First Vancouver cab off the rank

My first story from last month's Adventure World media famil to Canada and the US is one of two stories I have in this week's NZ Woman's Weekly (click here to read).

Akaroa and Naenae

If you thought these two places had nothing in common, that they probably don't even belong in the same sentence, you'd be right.

But they're the location of two very different stories I have in this week's NZWW - the first a travel foodie piece on Akaroa, the second an interview with a woman making a difference in the lives of kids in Naenae.

 

Special gift

My story on a brave woman who lost her child to CHARGE Syndrome last year is published in this week's NZ Woman's Weekly (click here to read). There wasn't a dry eye in the house at this interview, I can tell you.

    

Pilots and DJs

Two of my stories were published in this week's NZWW, one on a radio DJ's recent wedding and one on pioneering Maori pilot Angela Swann-Cronin.

Swede Success

My story on Malmo, in Sweden's south, is published in this week's issue of the NZ Woman's Weekly (click here to read).

Dame Kate
