A virtual holiday is an experience which can take you away from the boredom of daily life to discover something new and exciting; but without ever leaving the comfort of your home. Perfect for people who are unable to travel.

What are Holidays From Home?

A virtual vacation, full of fun activities that means you may be stuck at home; but you can still experience the world.



Want to see how they work? It's much easier for me to show you rather than tell you about the holidays, so go here for an example...

Listen to my Radio 4 Interview



The Holidays From Home are designed to give you a relaxing, fun holiday without leaving home. Perfect for when illness or disability is keeping you in one place. You get to "see" the sites despite never getting on a plane or moving a muscle. You can enjoy it on your own or as part of our amazing online community.



If you:

  • are fed up of being stuck at home

  • feel like your life is on hold

  • are jealous of people who get to go on holiday

  • hate when postcards come through the door of far off places you wish you could visit

  • are bored of listening to everybody else's holiday stories, with nothing of your own to say

  • wish you had a magic wand and could instantly give yourself the life you want

  • are bored, bored, bored!



You NEED a Holiday From Home. The virtual holidays will give you instant fun and fill your calendar with exciting things to look forward to.


By joining you will:

  • get a holiday that will give you something to do other than watch daytime TV.

  • have fun places to explore

  • learn about a different country and culture

  • experience the tastes with authentic recipes

  • be part of a community of amazing virtual travellers

  • stories to tell people about things you've done and places you've "been"


The virtual holiday is all about making the most of life and finding ways to adapt it to your current situation. It brings a holiday to you so you can start enjoying it now!


You will get:

  • A virtual guide to the destination, described as if you're really there, using your senses to imagine the places

  • Fun activities - like books, films and music suggestions to bring the places to life

  • Craft ideas

  • Recipes to try so you can eat the food you would on holiday

What if I:


I know that you are going to have FUN.

You want to have fun, travel, experience new things, see new sights and enjoy life. You feel like you can't have the life you want; but you desperately wish you could have a holiday.

You NEED a break from the monotony of daily life. Holidays From Home will help you get that.


* You don't need to be able to go out

* You don't need lots of energy.

* You don't need to be able to use a computer for New York or Australia and it takes just five minutes to download the London days.

People who have taken a Holiday From Home say that they had fun, relaxed and loved being part of the virtual travel community. They enjoyed having something to do when other people where going away and they couldn't. Many shared the experience with friends and family, some dipped in and out of the holiday, while others immersed themselves completely and enjoyed "being" somewhere else for a week.

Let my imagination guide you around the world and take you away from the confines of your own four walls. Engage all your senses by looking at the beautiful photographs, listening to the sounds of the country, eating the food to bring the places to life. Spread out over a week, you'll find the holiday full of activities and suggestions to keep you, your family and friends entertained during your holiday experience.
