Cheryl Markosky always wanted to be a lighthouse keeper, but fell into journalism instead. She specialises mainly in property and lifestyle.

Cheryl’s contributed to a variety of titles, including The Sunday Times, Daily Mail, Mail on Sunday, Daily and Sunday Telegraph, Financial Times, Country Life, Independent, MoveTo London, MoveTo Town & Country and Tempus. In the West Indies, she writes for Visitor, St Kitts and Nevis’s annual tourism magazine.

Cheryl’s also written two books for Location, Location, Location’s Phil Spencer, and regularly does corporate work for companies.

She’s originally from Canada, and now splits her time between London, Wiltshire and the Caribbean (well, someone’s got to do it).
