ABOUT
Me.
Hi, I’m Lindsay – travel addict, history nerd, photography enthusiast, and football (soccer) fan. Welcome to my travel blog! I created this space for fellow adventurers who want to explore the world without having to give up their day jobs or live out of a suitcase.
So far, I’ve visited over 150 towns and cities across 21 countries on four continents – all while juggling family life and working full-time as a travel agent. Travel truly is my passion. I live, eat, sleep, and breathe it!
Although I usually travel with my family, I love solo adventures too, as I’m easy-going and love meeting new people.
Whether you’re planning a one-day city break, travelling with kids (yes, it is possible), or exploring on a budget, you’ll find plenty of tips, stories and inspiration here.
Some of my favourite travel moments include:
- Exploring London for the first time with my husband, doing all the classic touristy things.
- Accidentally joining a wedding party outside my hotel in India and dancing with complete strangers!
- Watching the Colosseum appear as I climbed the steps of a Rome train station.
- Taking our first international family trip to Fiji – fire dancing and all!
- Meeting giant stingrays and seals in the crystal-clear waters of Narooma, on the beautiful south coast of New South Wales, Australia.
My passion for travel truly came to life when I was 24 and went backpacking around Australia. What was meant to be a three-month trip turned into four years. For the first time, I felt truly at home. Although I had to return to the UK, I spent the next few years squeezing in as much European travel as possible.
In 2018, my husband, daughter, and I relocated back to Australia. Now we live on the stunning south coast of New South Wales, just a short drive to the beach – living the dream and making new memories one trip at a time.
When I’m not travelling, you’ll find me reading one of my many travel books, watching Netflix, or screaming at the telly during football season. I’m a proud Manchester United fan, love the Premier League and the FIFA World Cup, and dream of the day when England finally brings football home!
I’m also passionate about history, especially castles – there’s something magical about imagining royal courts, grand feasts, and epic battles from centuries ago. When exploring a new place, I love wandering through historic towns, local museums, or snapping photos of ancient ruins. Modern art, on the other hand? Not really my thing (don’t get me started on unmade beds in galleries!).
If you’re looking for honest travel guides, personal tips, or family-friendly recommendations, you’re in the right place. I also share hand-picked travel gear and tours I genuinely love and use myself, so feel free to check those out to help plan your next trip.
Thanks so much for stopping by and getting to know a little more about me. I hope my stories will inspire you to plan your own adventures – whether it’s a weekend getaway, a big international trip, or something totally out of your comfort zone.
Don’t forget to subscribe to my blog so you never miss a post and come along for the ride on social media too – I’d love to connect and hear about your adventures! Let’s explore the world, one story at a time.
