I`ve just started to read your substack after watching the Wild Woman Writors salon. I`m interested in your PHD subject, as someone who has ME and fibro, as the beach at Pett level is my sanctuary and has been for years. Is there a link to anything you have written about this or is it still in its early days? Will continue to read with interest!
I loved this. In my day job - I design events - which during covid became designing online events and its great to hear an online attendee perspective of this. In researching an event I did some online tours of a Vietnamese food market and other tourist experiences. There were also some great virtual museum tours. I will see if I can find the link if you haven’t tried that already.
Hi Louise - I had a look for those online street market tours but I couldn’t find them. I will keep my eyes open for them - as they were fun. I did find this: https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection and this https://www.virtualyosemite.org/virtual-tour/#node177 I think there are a lot of museums and national parks you can tour virtually. Happy online travelling. Will reach out if I find others!
Oooh, thank you for all of these. I've been wanting to find more nature based things to watch, and will especially appreciate the real time experiences. TV shows and movies are becoming more and more 'flashy' with increasingly rapid changing scenes and images. It's just overloading. I will check these out.

Hi Mel, thanks so much for getting in touch. Yes, I have had a piece published from my phd - just a blog post from MMU, I'll post the link below:

That sounds wonderful, yes I'd love to see the link for the food market in Vietnam if you find it!
Any museum tour recommendations also very gratefully received, thanks Catriona for reading and sharing x
