Meet

Emma Carmichael

Hi, and welcome to my website! Travelling Through… with Emma is about discovering world cultures, community and a sense of place through my eyes.

Although my bookshop, café-bar (called Travelling Through…) in London closed in June 2019 the spirit of the place still lives on in the form of the Travelling Through… Book Club and the launch of a Travelling Through… with Emma podcast.

Whether you like to travel or prefer the armchair travelling approach, I hope to bring you inspiration, motivation and spark your curiosity to discover more about life, our world and our cultures.

PODCAST

PODCAST SERIES COMING SOON...

​

Join Travelling Through… with Emma as she strikes out on a journey to meet people who have left their cultural roots to live further down the road or to travel to the other side of the planet. What were their reasons? What became the challenges and what ultimately does their current homeland mean to them?

Wherever you are, wherever you are going, wherever you want to be, we hope these podcast chats inspire you to make the most of living in the moment.

LET'S TALK

I’ll be sending out a quarterly Newsletter with updates on what to expect over the coming months, special offers, special podcast guests and anything else I think you’d like to hear about. You can also send through suggestions for us to consider. Subscribe here if you would like to be a part of the Travelling Through… community. 

BOOKS

I launched my first non-fiction travel memoir Driving Tito: Through the Balkan Backroads with a Celebrity in June 2019.

If you want to know more about travelling independently in a vintage car, the Balkans, female solo travel, or just need a light and entertaining read, this book could be for you! 

Driving Tito is available to purchase as a paperback in all good bookshops, or online in paperback or eBook format, wherever you are in the world - and on whatever reading medium you use!

BOOK CLUB

The Travelling Through… Book Club was set up in the summer of 2015. It met regularly at the Travelling Through… bookshop in London until May 2019. Since, then the book clubbers have collectively taken over responsibility to keep the book club gatherings going. So we continue to get together on average every six weeks at different venues in SE1. Come join us! Email for more information.
