Kate Duthie

Kate was born in London, where she worked in magazines for 10 years before moving to Sydney in 1997 to work in newspapers. Kate has lived and worked overseas, including a summer in the Canary Islands trying to persuade tourists to visit a dodgy villa timeshare investment seminar.

Her favourite adventures include a three-month road trip across the USA in a convertible, swimming with whale sharks off West Australia, walking NZ’s beautiful Milford Track, floating in the Dead Sea, and scuba diving in The Maldives, where a huge stingray hugged her on a wreck dive.
