Hundreds of her own images have been used alongside her (and other journalists') work, including in The Times, The Observer, and Country Homes & Interiors.

Although Linda writes about destinations worldwide, and her published features cover a wide range of topics from family theme park holidays to executive jet travel (and everything in between), the regions she specialises in are the Caribbean (where she lived for a number of years), Scotland (where she is a frequent visitor) and Devon & Cornwall (where she was born and bred). The topics she specialises in writing about are: golf destinations; wedding and honeymoon hotspots; gardens, parks and natural parks; numerous outdoor activities, and special interest breaks (ranging from painting holidays and breaks for garden lovers, to wildflower walking holidays and soft adventure vacations); To discover countries she has visited worldwide, click here >>

It was thanks to an assignment to set up the promotions department for a national golf magazine, organising mixed golf events, plus golf instruction days for women, that ultimately led Linda Jackson in the travel writing direction. A keen golfer, and not-so-long-ago single figure handicap golfer, Linda has played on courses around the world and written about many golf destinations. Linda can, on an ad hoc consultancy basis, offer assistance to national tourist boards and regional tourist offices with the organisation of golf press trips (from giving advice on golf itineraries and finding suitable journalists to participate, to personally accompanying golf journalists on familiarisation visits) if they do not have golf expertise themselves. Linda Jackson can also assist with writing copy and supplying images for golf brochures, golf supplements, websites and golf travel guides, and is willing to travel at short notice if required to do so.

She has nibbled pig's ears in Portugal and slippery eels in the Po Delta; dined in trendy restaurants in Montreal and through multi-course menus in Asturias; munched through healthy-eating menus in Mauritius; got bubbly on Cava in Spain; relished a cookery course in Jersey, delved into the delights of sizzling cook pots in the Caribbean, and endured deliciously messy fingers eating Arbroath smokies in Scotland.
