Donna Dailey writes for national and international newspapers, magazines and online publications. Her work has won several prestigious travel writing awards. She has also written or contributed to around 40 guidebooks and inspirational travel books for major publishers.

Her travels have taken her down the Rio San Juan into Nicaragua’s rain forest, across the Australian Outback, to ancient sites in Jordan and Tunisia, and to the game reserves of Kenya. She has hiked across the Rockies and the desert canyons of the American Southwest, and joined in music sessions in the pubs of Ireland and Scotland. Her appetite for food and drink stories has had her eating buffalo in Denver and billy goat in the Loire Valley, sipping sherry in Spain’s bodegas, and taken her from the gourmet restaurants of Paris to Valencia in search of the perfect paella.

Donna has a Journalism degree from the University of Northern Colorado. She worked in television production and travel publishing before becoming a freelance travel writer and photographer.
