Ali has lived in Yorkshire for the last 25 years – first in Hull, then in Ripon and now in Leeds. She’s a natural explorer, she likes to hunt out unknown spots, from the hidden pagoda behind Roundhay woods to the secret cocktail bar in Malton. And she’s drawn to the Yorkshire countryside, especially the coast. Ali has crafted content for Leeds-List, Yorkshire-List, Manchester-List and PureGym.
