Tue, 01 Apr 2025 09:00:13 GMT
Whether it’s driving solo from London to Lagos, a month on a motorbike, or vanlife in east Africa, these influencers are sharing their adventures – and helping others to negotiate the difficulties of a ‘weak’ passport
Joy Ebaide was riding her motorbike along a deserted dirt road in rural Tanzania when a black mamba, Africa’s deadliest snake, lunged at her. “It was about two inches away from me, and that’s an experience I’ll never forget,” she says.
Encountering a highly venomous snake was a heart-stopping moment, but it did not put her off travelling. If anything, it made her more determined, and left her feeling that “impossible is nothing”.

Winchester, Hampshire
Grayling are prolific along the stretch of the River Itchen between Wharf Mill and City Mill, and offer the best chance of a catch. To be able to fish the River Itchen for free is a gift; this is the same river that Frederic Halford and GEM Skues fished more than 100 years ago, starting fly-fishing as we know it today. Shrimp and caddis patterns work best for fly fishing here. It’s rare to see rising trout in these town waters except during the mayfly season so time your fishing trip appropriately if it’s trout you’re after. The mayfly season is not exact but it tends to run between late May and early June here.

We asked the experts about keeping luggage as light as possible (and still being ready for anything)
• The best travel-size toiletries for your next trip
Packing is a fine art. No one wants to lug heavy bags around transport hubs or arrive at the other end to a chaotically stuffed bag full of creased clothes. But we all have our “essentials” to cram in. For some, that’ll be a full skincare routine or a semblance of a wardrobe; for others, it’ll be sports equipment (though you really should leave the weights at home). So whether you’re flying on an airline offering ever-dwindling luggage limits, trying to cram a car for the whole crew, or rushing between trains with a backpack, it really does pay to travel light.
But what are the secrets to lightening the load without compromising? To find out, we’ve asked world travellers for all their best hacks and buys. Whether it’s the travel writer who’s been solo backpacking for more than 20 years or the hotel designer who has to dress smartly while zipping to locations across Europe, our globe-trotters shared their tips for everything from the ultimate wear-everywhere shoes to the best tech cheats.
