Travel writer and journalist specialising in solo adventure and story-led travel for women.
I’m Nika—a UK-based writer, adventurer and author with a 25+ years of experience across radio, TV, print, digital and social.
My passion is solo travel and slow adventures—not just seeing places but getting under the skin of them. Walking my way to stories – my feet are wiser than my head – finding cultural connection and a deeper understanding through the people who live there: local families, creatives, journalists. And always, the taste of place.
I’ve worked with global media and brands, including the BBC, Emap, News UK, DMGT, Bauer, Wizja TV, Foxtel, Expedia Group, Saatchi & Saatchi, Weber Shandwick and Publicis Groupe. Author of 12 books on health and wellbeing.
I mentor journos through the NUJ and host a Writers’ Café in Hastings & St Leonards.

Since 2020, I’ve been building Bold Types, recommended by Hotflash Inc. as “a helpful newsletter for the intersection of writing, the digital world and entrepreneurship, which can be a lonely place for many of us.”
