Sophie Lyon is a prematurely cynical communications specialist who likes home decor magazines, campervans, dogs, wine, walking in the mountains and talking about herself in the third person.

In 2016, she gave up the horrors of London commuting and her much-loved role as an NHS communications manager to work independently. She continues to specialise in healthcare communications.

Sophie likes to compose blog posts in her head while walking, enjoying the peace and inspiring views that England has to offer. But then her dog will commit some unfavourable act and force her to lose focus. The posts you read here are the ones that made it back through the mud and chaos.
