HELLO, I'M 
 JENNY ROWE 

 Health,wellbeing 
& travel writer 

I write for lovely international, national and independent magazines and newspapers with a health, wellbeing and travel focus. From social media and contemporary makers to habits, eco-holidays and hobbies, I write to make sense of life's ups and downs; to explore thought-provoking new research; and to map out meaningful minibreaks.

Wherever I go, my trainers go with me, and my love for running has led to some muddy cross-country races and tough triathlons. I bake, cook, craft and read (a lot). I also write poems and stories and take pictures on Instagram, @mycountryself.
