About Nicky Gardner
Nicky Gardner is a Berlin-based writer and editor. Since 2005, Nicky has been co-editor of hidden europe magazine (www.hiddeneurope.co.uk). The magazine is a print publication; it features good writing about cultures and communities across Europe.
Nicky is the lead author of Europe by Rail: The Definitive Guide. You can find out more about that book at www.europebyrail.eu. A new 17th edition of this book is published in April 2022. Nicky's co-author is Susanne Kries. Nicky and Susanne share a common interest in slow travel and green mobilities.
The two women were described in E&T Magazine (aka Engineering & Technology Magazine) as "the doyennes of European travel and the subtle connoisseurs of Europe's railways." That same article described Europe by Rail as "a sheer delight, an indispensable book for both real life and armchair travellers and a spectacular achievement, of which the likes of George Bradshaw and Thomas Cook would feel proud."
Nicky's writing has featured in media across Europe. She writes regularly for hidden europe of course, but beyond that you'll find nicely woven words by Nicky in such disparate sources as the Kyiv Post, New Statesman, Russian Life, the Guardian and the Independent newspaper. Nicky's articles on European travel, cultural and politics are regularly translated into other languages. In recent years her work has appeared in Italian, German, Russian, Ukrainan, Polish, Basque and Spanish.
