POD Travels is an award-nominated family travel blog centred around discovery, adventure and exploration. Founded in 2015, it follows the success of multi-award-nominated lifestyle blog PODcast. We have been lucky enough to travel most of our lives. From Southeast Asia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands to the Caribbean, South America and Australia where I lived for two years. We’ve travelled extensively in Europe too where we’ve enjoyed many a sun, ski and city break over the years.
About Charly

I have broad sector knowledge spanning from travel, leisure and entertainment to retail, FMCG and sport gained at leading London agencies, well-known brands and as a multi-award-nominated blogger.

My London agency experience encompasses 8 years at award-winning creative agency Haygarth (FMCG and retail specialists), leading the marketing team at Dentsu-owned digital performance agency STEAK and heading marketing at brand-led digital experience agency Rufus Leonard.
I am the Editor of two multi-award-nominated blogs, POD Travels and PODcast, the first of which launched in 2012. I have worked with many brands since including Mark Warner Holidays, Procter & Gamble and the Premier League. We collaborate with brands and agencies in lots of ways from content creation and management, creative partnerships and photography projects to ambassador roles, press trips and relevant product reviews. We also write sponsored posts that are relevant to our family and audiences as well as guest posts on selected websites.
