About - Vol. II

A journalist’s eye for luxury travel storytelling.

Portrait of Georgie Darling

A short biography

I started my career as a journalist for some of the UK's biggest news publications. A decade on, I write for the brands I used to interview - luxury hotels, wine estates, and the bespoke agencies behind the journeys in between.

My background is editorial: a degree in Journalism Studies from the University of Sheffield, accreditations from the NCTJ, BJTC and PPA, and years spent reporting before turning to branded content.

Today, I work as a freelance luxury travel copywriter and content strategist, partnering with discerning brands across Europe, Latin America, Africa and Asia.

I write for an audience that reads slowly - and I write the way I travel: with attention, restraint, and a deep curiosity for the detail that everyone else missed.
