January 2022 also marked 100 years since Christie first set off on a 10-month voyage around the world, which inspired some of her best-loved books. Christie said: “Going around the world was one of the most exciting things that ever happened to me. It was so exciting that I could not believe it was true.” She would discover beautiful landscapes, taste remarkable new flavours and meet countless interesting people along the way and use this inspiration to create all her wonderfully rich characters and thrilling plots.
