| Fodor's Travel Verified
The Maldives is renowned for its natural beauty, but most visitors are unaware the majority of high season is choked by pollution. As thousands of travelers book their dream vacation to the Maldives each month, the majority have no idea it’s regularly on regular red alert due to dangerous levels of smog during high season.

Interview

What was your first job as a journalist?

Reporter at the Islington Gazette. I began as an intern and got more bylines than the staff, which caught the attention of the editor!

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Yes, when I was about six I used my mother's typewriter to type a short story I named 'The Magic Rose' - mum was a magazine journalist.

How is social media changing news?

I'm hoping there will be some reforms, it's great that it's making news accessible to more people but there are too many unverified sources.
