Mary Novakovich is a British travel journalist specialising in Croatia and the Balkans. Both her parents are originally from Croatia, which at the time of their births was part of Yugoslavia.
Maryâs memoir, My Family and Other Enemies: Life and Travels in Croatia's Hinterland, was released in August this year and documents her many journeys to visit family in Lika, where her mother was born and grew up. Mary first visited as a little girl when the country was part of Yugoslavia and later took her mother back down memory lane there.
Having witnessed how the country and her parents' birthplace has changed over the decades, her memoir gives a personal account of a moment in history, but itâs above all a travelogue which talks of the breathtaking scenery and authentic cultural experiences on offer.
Mary tells us all about the book and her other adventures as well as sharing tips for getting off the beaten path in Croatia.

Jess Vincent started writing about travel a few years ago when she went backpacking in South America. It wasnât long before she scored commissions with the big names and won awards for her words.
Jess has covered South America extensively, penning stories about hiking the Camino Copalita - a little-known trail only a privileged few get to experience in Mexico - and tasting the country's ancient "caviar". Having grown up in Spain, she knows where to find the hidden gems and experience truly authentic food and hospitality.
While she was grounded during lockdown, Jess got her fix by burying her head in the great work of other travel writers, when she came up with the idea of collating all of these stories into one big anthology. And so, with the help of some of the other most-respected names in the world of travel literature, The Best British Travel Writing of the 21st Century was born.
During this episode, Jess talks to Laura about the mammoth task of selecting stories for the book and what makes a great piece of travel writing, as well as reflecting on some of her favourite adventures.The True Travel Podcast -

May 29th marked International Everest Day and so joining Laura this week is The Telegraphâs Lucy Aspden who recently completed Basecamp Everest. Leading her up the mountain was the son of Sherpa Tenzing, one of the first two men to summit Everest almost 70 years ago.
The trek to Everest has changed a lot since then and Lucy tells us what itâs really like to summit basecamp in 2022, with far more comfortable accommodation, thousands of climbers visiting every year... and the impacts of climate change being felt.
She also tells us about life in the Himalayas, why so-called âovernight mountaineersâ are ruining Everest, and how locals are cleaning up the mountains so future generations can enjoy it.The True Travel Podcast -

Cheryl B Engelhardt is a marine biologist turned bestselling New Age artist and composer from New York. She holds the unofficial title of being the first person to make an entire album on a cross-country train in the USA.
What started as a cheaper way to travel to the Grammys ended up being a 9-day round trip from New York to LA after the event was cancelled during the pandemic. Cheryl produced her twelve-track album - aptly named The Passenger - whilst winding through the Rocky mountains, past enchanting frozen lakes and herds of wild Elk streaking through the valleys.
Find out more about Cherylâs journey and how it inspired the music as well as the Grammys from an insiderâs perspective, her dodgy gig in Germany, a hairy helicopter ride in Hawaii, and travelling the world with social justice choirs.

Travelling artist Natasha Cross, whoâs originally from London, has been making her way up through South America; painting, volunteering and teaching as she goes. Sheâs currently in Bolivia, a country which stole her heart and stopped her in her tracks three years ago.
During that time, Natasha has seen the country go through a political crisis and was at one point walking through blockades to get to work. Shortly after, the pandemic struck and to keep herself busy in lockdown, she used painting as a way of documenting what she witnessed.
Natashaâs also got some funny stories to tell, like the time her colleague accidentally painted a devil on the wall of a kindergarten class - more on that later.
As a travel destination, Bolivia is often overshadowed by neighbouring Peru and Chile, but Natasha says for those who are up for an adventure, Bolivia will reward its visitors with some real off-the-beaten-path beauty spots.
