Welcome to the world of
With Open Wings!

Dear Visitors,

I’m so glad you’re here. Let me start by sharing a not so little secret with you… Travel and writing are two of my greatest loves, and are very much the central focus of this online portal.

Being a free-spirited soul and nature-lover, I’ve enjoyed travelling to many different lands in recent years, and I find myself wandering through the fictional world of books regularly. Embarking on a season of slower travel, slower sharing and slower living (as much as is humanly possible in today’s world), I will soon be exploring and appreciating more of what is on my doorstep in the UK, via my very first home (on wheels!) - Name tbc ;).

As a deep thinker and big feeler, I tend to find expression through the written word to be the most therapeutic and creative outlet. I believe there's much that can be felt, expressed and transmuted through writing, and I’m here to guide others to channel their grief or life’s challenges through letters and poetry, or to share their stories (we all have one/many!), and to reconnect with the beauty of life through writing.

My first loves are reading and writing, so I’m grateful to be able to share some of my own original poetry, short stories, heart musings and travel diary blogs that I’ve penned in various locations around the world, during the many seasons and chapters in life. I hope that they provide you with comfort, inspiration or whatever you might be looking for on your own journey.

You can read excerpts from my latest 255 day travel diary by clicking the button below, browse the poetry archives, gain ideas from completed projects in the store, or drop me a message via the Contact page and let me know where you’re currently at on your own writing or travel journey. I love to hear from you all, and if I can assist you with either in anyway, then I will :).

Love & blessings,
Jessica xo
