TRAVEL with Kat Winter 2014 | Page 2

Welcome

to the second edition of 'TRAVEL with Kat', the newsletter from my travel blog of the same name, where I share my passion for discovering new countries, cultures and cuisines.

In this Winter issue, you'll find a fascinating feature from Bhutan by travel writer, Solange Hando and my featured photographer for this issue is Jason Florio. I've been a big fan of his for quite sometime, and I'm delighted that both Jason and Solange were happy to contribute to this edition. Another big thank you goes to my Readers' Gallery contributors. Be sure to check out their stunning images.

On a sad note, my father passed away this summer (hence no autumn edition) but I would like to dedicate this issue to his memory. He fought a long and brave battle against cancer for the last thirteen years. He'd travelled around the world a number of times before the age of ten and you can read about his early years in 'Memories of Shanghai' an adaptation of a series of articles that were first published on my blog.

My travelling was put on hold for a couple of months but more recently I've visited two fabulous Mediterrean islands, Corsica and Santorini. You'll find some highlights from these trips and others on pages 4 and 5.

I've just got back from a fabulous trip to Lisbon so look out for Christmas photos and gastronomy tips on my blog coming soon.

For those of you that celebrate

it, may I wish you a Merry

Christmas, and may you all

have a healthy and happy

New Year.
