Sophie Ellis-Bextor: “I want my kids to be intrepid!” How to make your holiday magical
Over deze aflevering
<p>Sophie Ellis-Bextor is playing over 20 festivals around the world this summer. Given she travels so much for work, it’s even more important to make family holidays properly magical.</p><br><p>Welcome to The Happy Place Guide To Holidays! In this chat with Fearne – brought to you by British Airways Holidays – Sophie explains that she and her husband have meetings to discuss the travel itinerary. They share the joy of collecting stamps in your passport, and get deep into their recommendations for Paris, Puglia, Ibiza, and Japan.</p><br><p>Fearne and Sophie also realise they both turn into a slightly different person on holiday... a more uninhibited version of themselves. There are more glam outfits and fewer routines!</p><br><p>Plus, how does Sophie stay so chilled while packing for seven people in the family, and how does she feel about screens on holiday?</p><br><p><em>British Airways Holidays are ATOL protected, offer a 24hr holiday helpline, and allow you to book with a low deposit.
