Travel: Trek with Noel
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.FIONA BARLTROP of Burgess Hill, Sussex, writes to endorse Ruth Picardie's praise for the writings of Noel Rochford and his Sunflower guides (Independent Traveller, 1 January). 'I am a keen walker and off-the-beaten-track explorer, and for many years Noel has provided me with invaluable guiding services and acted as a companion and friend. His written words enlighten and enhance every journey. Together we have visited and explored Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Gomera, Rhodes and Corsica - his enthusiasm for the islands permeates every page. I get itchy feet reading his descriptions of new walks, new places to be discovered. And I, too, enjoy the challenge of matching my pace with him and on occasions - a proud boast - outpacing him.
