Jessica Gianelli

The first time I sat on an airplane, I was nine months old, headed to my mother’s island, St. Vincent and The Grenadines. I spent those first 18 years of my life combing various Caribbean beaches, and sussing out the best hotel breakfasts among them. After moving to London to study nearly a decade ago, my European adventures began, where hidden calas, nestled bistros, seaside trails and open-air markets bookended my weekends and summers. I'm drawn to natural and subtle luxuries across a range of price points and experiences. My focus includes travel itineraries made around food, wellness and all things local and artisanal. I'm interested in showcasing more sustainable options for travel, including boutique hotels and local gems, which highlight the nuance and character of any given destination.
