Work at Lonely Planet Traveller magazine. I love running, travel, food, wine and general silliness (all views my own).

This thread made me laugh! Sadly only sparrows and great tits at my bird feeder this morning, no sombre tits or penduline tits, and I'll probably have to wait til borders open again to find a European shag

My favourite species of birds are the ones named by people who clearly hate birds. (thread)

What is this? Jack Dee in Siberia, complaining about the cold and reindeer despite immense hospitality shown to him and, no doubt, a fat pay check, at a time when we’re feeling compassionate to all and dreaming of the time we can travel again #jackdee #siberia #bbctwo #badtiming

@SamMurphyRuns Yep, guilty! They’re impossible to remember and take so long. Plus it’s hard to see how they are helping (though of course they are)! I found I had fewer injuries when I incorporated two Pilates sessions/wk into my training and took the volume of running down a notch - prevention

It was a privilege to be shown around the 12th-century church in #Son, #Vallsdaneu by Toni Anyó, a specialist in #Romanesque art in the #Pyrenees. Most original artworks have been moved to #MNAC Barcelona, but the tableau has been carefully copied in situ

I spent the morning on a farm in #Roní in the #Catalanpyrenees in #PallarsSobirà. 19-year-old Janira has taken over looking after the animals from her grandmother Pepita

A great day for a snowshoe hike with @justinfoulkes and @trekpyrenees in #Aigüestortesnationalpark, walking from #estanystmaurici to the #amitgesrifugi where we had lunch. The snow was a metre deep in places and untouched, and the sun was warm enough for us to wear just T-shirts

Justin Foulkes photographs the lake #estanydesantmaurici hidden by a blanket of fresh snow in the #Aigüestortesnationalpark This is our lunch stop after a 2.5hour snowshoe hike with our Catalan guide Miguel @trekpyrenees

I can vouch for how beautiful and peaceful Les Jardins Des Douars is. I loved the mature gardens - like an oasis in the arid landscape. A special place! https://t.co/31pk7SJasD

The bee-hive-like #trulli houses in #Alberobello were built in the 16th century for workers on the land - constructed without mortar, they could be quickly dismantled so that the landowners could evade tax #puglia #italy

Hi @Kerry_Lorimer please can I check whether you are the journalist who wrote a story about South Georgia in Lonely Planet's Tales from Nowhere? Sorry to bother you if not! Thanks

Am so sad to hear that my running coach Bob Parker has died. He was inspirational to athletes at all levels. He selflessly gave up his time to coach us and opened his home to muddy shoes on training days, supplying us with tea and biscuits post session. RIP Bob, you'll be missed! https://t.co/Jx9TZSzuSH

Sad news, BOB PARKER, coach to many club and international athletes including Dave Bedford has died, RIP Bob Parker

La Bobadilla @barcelohoteles lives up to its name - a true hideaway in the olive groves and mountains of #malaga #spain #labobadilla

Time to leave Torres del Paine - it's hard to turn your back on a landscape quite like this one. #LPinPatagonia

The #greekisland of #Symi is a magical place to arrive by boat. Colourful Neoclassical houses, unique in the #dodecanese surround the port

#Lindos dates from 1100BC - a clifftop cascade of whitewashed houses and churches, with pebble mosaics throughout the narrow streets #rhodes

The seven-course tasting menu at the 2-Michelin star St Hubertus restaurant @HotelRosaAlpina is a feast for the senses #Dolomites #travel
