Hi, I’m Blu.

UK-born. Jamaican roots. Brooklyn-shaped. After more than 25 years in New York, I traded one incredible city for another and Book With Blu reflects my love of travel, people, culture and making connections wherever I land. I love good food, great style, live music, dancing, meeting interesting people and discovering the places you only find once you start to know a city.


London → Brooklyn → Lisbon.

I’ve always been a city girl.‍ ‍

From London to Brooklyn to Lisbon, cities have shaped every chapter of my life. I spent more than two decades building a life in Brooklyn before making Lisbon home. Along the way, I’ve worked across fashion, music, business and community, worlds that taught me one thing: the best experiences usually begin with the people you meet.
