Meet Gemma

My ears always perked up whenever my father talked about the round-the-world travels he took in the sixties. Stories recounted of taking the hippie trail through Europe, Asia, Pakistan, India, and Southeast Asia, India and the Himalayas, stowing away on a ship - surviving on bananas for a week - left me eager to have my own adventures as soon as I was old enough.

Visiting Sri Lanka and traveling up the east coast of Australia were highlights as well as revisiting my home as a child in Port of Spain, Trinidad.

Since joining Far & Wild, I’ve been fortunate enough to participate in the team's 'fam trip' to Zambia, my first time in Africa. It was an incredible experience that has left me craving more!

My Favourite Trip

Sri Lanka Adventure

While traveling in Sri Lanka, I was involved in local projects rebuilding villages and communities devastated by the tsunami.

My Expertise

Studying Design & Marketing at university gave me a balance of creativity and marketing knowledge that has served me well, working in PR in London for several years and then in Manchester. I enjoy the creative aspects of marketing and especially content creation, which is what I've specialised in here at Far & Wild.

Expert Advice

Gemma's Top Travel Tips

Try street food

Truly the best way to immerse yourself in another culture is through their food, and street food is the best food for this purpose!

Carry small cash

We may live in an increasingly cashless society, but lots of other countries still function on petty cash, so make sure you've got a pocketful.

Be flexible

Don’t plan every detail — giving yourself space to wander often leads to the most memorable discoveries.
