    Clare Thomson

    Clare Thomson has been writing about travel ever since she wrote a column for her local newspaper while she was backpacking around India. As part of the editorial team on The Daily Telegraph’s travel section she wrote numerous city guides and features from learning to cook in Bali to diving in Zanzibar.

    After she had her two boys, Clare began her family travel blog, Suitcases and Sandcastles, where she shares her ideas for travel experiences that the whole family will enjoy, from city breaks in Europe to UK beaches and the best Greek islands for families.

    Suitcases and Sandcastles is regularly featured by Lonely Planet and is the #2 UK Family Travel Blog in 2018 (Tots 100).
