How would you spend your perfect day? (no restrictions on travel..anything’s possible)
Wake up in a luxury hotel overlooking the Salcombe estuary on a warm, early summer morning. After breakfast on the balcony I take a long walk
with hubby and Moses, on the coastal path, ending at a Michelin starred pub for a local crab salad washed down with a delicious chilled St
Veran, (produced by our friends Giles and Joelle Morat) in the garden. Then I’d head to New York where I would help serve champagne and
canapés at my best friend, Kim Zachman’s, new book launch event. The rest of the afternoon would be shopping where I would come across a
designer shoe shop, with a 90%-off sale, of course. The evening would end with a big get-together of family and friends at a villa
right on the beach in Puerto Pollenca, where we would be cooked a fabulous local meal and served amazing wines as we watch the sun set over the
ocean.

How would you spend your perfect day? (no restrictions on travel..anything’s possible)
Active and outdoors in the sunshine: starting with a dive in clear blue water with visibility as far as the eye can see, with manta rays,
humpbacks and dolphins in Mozambique, then I would hop in my time machine, and with a lovely tasty picnic, containing the best cheese rolls
imaginable and smoked salmon, go on a walk or cycle ride along the coast in Lanzarote ending at the top of cliffs of Famara. As the sun
descends, I would enjoy the sunset with a nice bottle of Veuve Clicquot. Then, because anything is possible, a quick swim in the warm ocean
followed by a meal with my best friends, all together, feasting on a deliciously prepared medley of gorgeous Spanish Tapas.
