Rosie Millard

Rosie is an acclaimed national journalist and broadcaster. She writes regularly for the, Telegraph, Times and Financial Times. You can often hear her on Radio 4, Radio 2 and Five Live. You can also follow her on Twitter and she is one of the Featured MumsNet bloggers. She also loves to run!

She has four children, aged 7, 9, 12 and 14 and when she’s not pounding the streets, she’s devising notions of where she can take them adventuring around the world. Her account of 4 months travelling around the French speaking world was made into a 6-part TV series, Croissants in the Jungle, and a book Bonnes Vacances: A Crazy Family Adventure in the French Territories. She has also recently undertaken family adventures with The Adventure Company to Egypt where they slept on an overnight train, sailed up the Nile in a felucca and visited the Pyramids and Morocco, where they rode into the Sahara on camels, slept under the stars in the desert, and haggled in the souks of Marrakech.

“What I loved about these two trips was the pleasure of sharing an adventure with other families. We all had to face completely new experiences and be daring together! The children gained confidence from being in a huge group of kids their own age, and I valued meeting parents with similarly intrepid tastes.”

Let Rosie’s amazing stories inspire you to take your clan off on an exciting family adventure.

Listen to her talk at 2.30pm on The Motorola Main Stage on Saturday 14th January.
