Hi, I’m Rebecca. Welcome to my travel site – Life Beyond Borders. I divide my time between the UK and Greece and write about this beautiful country. After initially spending time here, originally teaching English, I fell into Travel Writing for Guidebook Companies Rough Guides, Lonely Planet and my own award-winning novel / Travel Memoir “Girl Gone Greek“.

I am now also a travel writer for various titles including newspaper articles, magazine articles, interviews and articles for various inflight magazines, cruise magazines and luxury hotel reviews for the likes of Forbes and Telegraph Travel. Check out my extensive Portfolio and if you are looking to hire someone whose speciality is Greece and the eastern Mediterranean, get in touch.

I am also a Destination Expert Speaker about Greece for various Cruise Lines and you can regularly find me promoting Greece and giving fun talks on board voyages around Greece and the islands.

If you’re looking for the ultimate guide to what to do / eat and cultural nuances in Greece, you’ve come to the right place. You’ll also find unique insights into a small selection of other European countries, plus adventure travels.
