Gabriella Le Breton launches new website

http://www.gabriella-lebreton.com

Our good friend, globetrotter and ski enthusiast Gabriella Le Breton, has just launched her own website and travel blog to track her epic adventures both on, and off the piste.

Gabriella explains why she has decided to launch her own blog…

When I tell people I’m a travel writer, it invariably sparks some gentle abuse followed by a series of questions about how I get away with being paid for being “on holiday”. I frequently think I have the best job in the world, but budding travel writers be warned: it’s a career that pays more handsomely in experience than cash.

The travel editor of a national newspaper hit the nail on the head when he described travel writers as “Champagne paupers” – when I’m researching a feature abroad, I might be sipping Dom Perignon in a sumptuous chalet after a day’s heli-skiing but when I’m back home, chances are you’ll find me scouring the shops of Clapham for bargains…

The purpose of this intermittent blog is, therefore, to share the ever-changing routine of a travel writer – both the highs and the lows – with those curious about the reality of this extraordinary job.

Keep this site bookmarked (along with our blog, oxfordski.com and luxurychaletcollection.com) for some travel inspiration!
