Samantha Lewis
Travel Writing and Editing
Since 1993, I’ve been lucky enough to travel the world, writing for and editing publications such as National Geographic Traveller UK, The Times Online, AOL Travel, Take a Break, ABTA magazine and Travel Weekly. While my specialist topics include hotels, spas and activity holidays, I’m also an expert on travelling with dogs – my Rhodesian Ridgeback Tommy, featured in front of Clivedon, has been to more luxury hotels than my husband… I get my priorities right!
Fitness, Health and Beauty
I was an international swimmer for 10 years and I’m passionate about looking the best you can… even if that requires visits to numerous luxury spas and medi-clinics. I’ve interviewed some of the top cosmetic surgeons and dermatologists about the latest aesthetic treatments (and even tested a few too…). Currently I write for National Geographic Traveller’s Spa and Luxury collection recommending health resorts, fashion accessories and the latest beauty treatments.
Equestrian
Horses are my hobby. I’m a keen eventer and own an Irish sports horse, Pacha (pictured below). I regularly contribute to Your Horse magazine and have interviewed celebrities such as Charlotte Dujardin and Carl Hester.
Copywriting and Project Management
I copywrite for companies such as Hyatt Hotels and project manage ad hoc consumer and business publications for APL Media. One of the latest was a food supplement, Taste of Israel (pictured) distributed with Waitrose magazine.
