Helen Pickles

A travel writer and feature writer for many UK nationals – including the Telegraph, Times and Independent - Helen lives in northern England. This northerly latitude means she properly appreciates the merest flicker of sunshine, and she doesn’t mind travelling big distances to find it. Brought up on caravanning holidays in the Lake District has also given her a love of the big outdoors – from New Zealand to the Yorkshire Dales – though she is equally at home exploring a city’s nooks and crannies. Italy, especially Florence, is a favourite destination. Nowhere does coffee and gelato quite like the Italians.
