You live a very healthy lifestyle – how important is that on holiday?
It’s incredibly important…for us a holiday is more about the wellness than anything else. We might go somewhere for a specific concert, journey or adventure, but for me a holiday is a chance to incorporate more wellness info my life.
So you still workout on holiday?
Absolutely. I really do enjoy those 6am wakeups, my morning yoga, having a fresh juice and coffee. I’ll do that then nap for three hours, get up and explore the city. That for me is a wellness holiday. I like coming home feeling good. But I always get up and see how I feel. I’m all about feeling what my body needs. I don’t stick to a set schedule.
How do you pick a hotel? Is it based on their fitness facilities?
Wellbeing is really key. It helps when you’re staying at a Westin, where you can hire gym gear, or you can be lying in bed looking at the room service menu and kale and green smoothies are options. In most hotels you ask if you can swap the ice cream for yoghurt and banana – the answer is usually no.
