Hello!
I’m Alice. I launched The Surrey Edit as a way of exploring my interests in books, fashion, art, photography, food…
After a year’s foundation course at art school, a degree in English Literature and an MA in Journalism, I went on to do internships at glossy fashion magazines as well as local and national newspapers, before finding my own space on here!
Alongside my freelance journalism work…
I like to fill these pages with adventures in Surrey and beyond.
Documenting glorious countryside and gardens…
Capturing beautiful buildings filled with history and charm…
And features on fascinating people…
Places to go and spend the day…
Travels around the UK…
The first look at the latest shows, exhibitions and launches…
Book reviews of new releases (and old favourites…)
Delicious recipes to cook and bake the stress away…
Photography is happily a huge part of this blog. I have always been fascinated in the photograph as a carrier of the short story, one that can say more than words…
And I love perfume too.
