Renée Ardon-Coppinger

Travel and Entertainment Editor | Urban List, WA

Landing her spot at Urban List initially as a freelance writer for all things delicious in Perth, Renée then found her way to Commercial Content Producer before jumping on her dream position of Travel and Entertainment Editor in January 2024.

Renée has used her platform to expand into international travel territory working closely with incredible local editors all over the globe from New York to Bali to create fresh, carefully-curated content for both locals and tourists to feel like experts in the city they touch down in. From the best hidden dive bars in Santa Monica to the most unmissable steak frites in Paris, she’s passionate about finding you the coolest hidden gems all over the world. 

When she’s not writing or sampling Perth’s new hottest neighbourhood wine haunt, you’ll catch her mapping out her next exotic escape (often before she’s even left for the holiday before), choosing her next piece of bright, bold art for her beloved colourful casa or snuggling up with a great new read.
