Hi, I’m Elle-Rose!

Hi, I’m Elle-Rose, the writer behind The World and Then Some!

I’ve been a travel writer for more than 12 years now, and it’s the best job in the world!

Join me as I chase sunsets, skylines, street food and skyscrapers.

After years of finding my feet and deciding which type of travel I loved the most, I settled on city breaks.

So that’s what you’ll find here! City breaks are the vacations I love the most, so city breaks are what I write about the most.

Would I call myself a city break expert? Yes, I think I would!
