I’m 43 and I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m one big walking contradiction 🥴

One minute I want to change my entire life, the next I don’t want anyone interfering with my routine!

At this point, I’ve given up trying to make sense of myself

Please tell me I’m not alone here!

How many of these can you relate to? Because I’m admitting to all seven 🙈

MARRAKECH RETREAT | 24–28 MARCH 2027

Five days in Marrakech, staying at the beautiful Villa Dinari, with Moroccan sunshine, yoga, incredible food, exploring the souks around Jemaa el-Fnaa and plenty of time by the pool.

I’m teaming up with Michelle from Chakra to bring you a Marrakech retreat combining travel, culture, yoga and a little adventure.

For those who don’t know us, I’m Jo, founder of Gallop & Globe • Women’s Group Travel where I organise small-group travel experiences for women. I’m also a qualified yoga teacher and teach at Chakra.

Michelle is the founder of Chakra Wellbeing Studio, a space she’s built around yoga, wellbeing and bringing people together. She’s passionate about creating experiences that encourage people to take time for themselves, try something different and enjoy the benefits of yoga beyond the studio.

Together, we’ll be hosting you throughout the five days, bringing our different experiences together to create a trip with a balance of exploring, activity and downtime.

We’ll wander through Marrakech’s colourful markets, enjoy a traditional Moroccan cookery class, practise yoga and meditation, and still have plenty of time to relax. There’s also the option of a sunrise hot air balloon ride for anyone wanting an extra adventure.

Five women said yes to my very first Gallop & Globe • Women’s Group Travel escape, and Santorini was SOLD OUT!

Months of planning, finding the right places, organising all the little details and wondering how it would all come together.

And then there we were, actually doing it.

But the moment that made me most excited about what I’m building wasn’t something I’d spent months organising. It was something that happened naturally, on an evening I’d deliberately left completely free.

And that’s what I love about this whole idea. You can come away on your own, have your own space, do your own thing and still have people to share the good bits with.

Santorini was the first, but definitely won’t be the last!

If you’ve been putting off travelling because you’ve got nobody to go with, follow Gallop & Globe • Women’s Group Travel and see where we’re heading next.

When I started planning Gallop & Globe • Travel for women 40+ trips, I knew exactly what I didn’t want.

Packed itineraries, huge groups, sharing rooms with strangers or feeling like you have to join in with absolutely everything.

I wanted beautiful places to stay, good food, a few experiences worth getting out of bed for and plenty of time to do whatever you fancy.

Because we’re grown women. We don’t need entertaining every minute of the day.

Santorini was our first trip, and it’s made me even more certain about the kind of holidays I want Gallop & Globe • Travel for women 40+ to offer.

Small groups, lovely places and a bit of independence.

What matters most to you when choosing a holiday?

first trip is officially in the books 😆

Five days in Santorini with a group of women who took a chance on the very first one.

Good food, far too many drinks, lots of laughs, late nights and beautiful places visited

I’ve come home with about 2483 photos and videos and plenty heart warming memories 🫶🏼

But for now… first one done ✔️🇬🇷

And definitely not the last!!

If you’ve been waiting for someone to go with, maybe this is your sign. Follow to see where we’re going next

I’ve also somehow managed to completely fall off the face of Instagram for nearly 3 weeks 😂

Looking back through these photos, you probably wouldn’t think I’ve had much to feel down about.

There’s been a lot going on, some good, some definitely not so good. I’ve been busy, overwhelmed, pi**ed off, flat and generally just not feeling much like myself.

Hormones be hormoning and life be lifing 😂

And then, right in the middle of it all, I went to Tangier on my own for a week.

And I bloody loved it.

I worked, wandered, drank far too much coffee, went to Asilah and Cap Spartel, mooched around the Medina and spent a ridiculous amount of time just sitting watching the world go by.

Then I came home and straight back into real life at 100mph.

And somewhere amongst all of that, something I’ve been working towards for months has suddenly arrived.

On Tuesday I leave for Santorini for the very first Gallop & Globe trip.

That feels quite surreal.

It’s gone from an idea in my head to actual women packing their cases ready to come away with me.

So yes, it’s been quiet on here.

Life definitely hasn’t been.

5 days until the first one 🇬🇷

Here we go 😆

I said what I said 😂 group travel after 40 should be fun… not a school trip.

I run small group trips for women 40+ who want to travel but dont always have someone to go with. Come with us 👀
