    London-based journalist Emma began her career at Tatler magazine before going freelance more than 15 years ago. She writes about travel, interiors and design for publications including House & Garden, Country & Townhouse and Centurion, as well as The Times and The Telegraph. She is also a contributing editor at Conde Nast Traveller and Elle Decoration magazine. You’re more likely to find her on safari or a beach than a ski slope.
