Belinda Jackson

I’m a journalist, travel writer, editor and podcaster based in Melbourne, Australia. 

Each week, I team up with my co-host, Kirstie Bedford, and our sound producer, Alaisdair Leith, to create The World Awaits. 

My articles and photographs have appeared in publications worldwide, from inflight to interior design: I’ve visited every continent, and have lived in three. See more at www.globalsalsa.com or instagram@global_salsa
