Mandy Applegate’s Biography

Mandy Applegate is a UK-based travel journalist writing for an American audience. As co-founder of Food Drink Life, she covers luxury travel, food-and-drink-led destinations, distinctive hotels and adventure.

Food Drink Life publishes through its own direct feed onto the Associated Press wire, with further distribution through BLOX Digital, MSN, Flipboard and Yahoo. Because Food Drink Life is a publisher in its own right, coverage runs on editorial merit without waiting on a commission.

Recent pieces have been picked up by outlets including The Seattle Times, San Francisco Weekly and the Black Hills Pioneer.

On press trips, Mandy reports firsthand and covers a destination as a connected series rather than a single overview. She is a PADI Advanced diver, which opens up dive-led stories most travel writers can't cover.
She is open to press trips and partnerships worldwide.
