About

“If you don’t know where you’re going, any road will get you there” – Lewis Carroll.

To me, that quote sums up travel. Travel isn’t about a 7 night stay in an all inclusive hotel in Majorca, it’s about getting on a plane with a backpack with 4 sets of clothes in, and seeing where life takes you.

About me

travel blog

I’m Tony, a freelance content writer in my 30s from Chester, UK. I decided to work for myself after being made redundant, and haven’t looked back since. Being a freelance writer, I only need a laptop so anywhere can be an office at a moment’s notice.

Why the site?

Why not? is the real question! Joking aside, the site is here to act partly as a portfolio for some content pieces I’ve created, and to also provide guidance, tips, advice and inspiration for travel.

Where have you been?

The list is too long, but here’s a snapshot of some of the things I’ve been fortunate enough to do:

  • Swim with turtles in the Caribbean sea
  • Kayaking in Slovenia
  • Walking holiday in Seefeld, Austria
  • Been the centre of attention in Beijing, where I was constantly stopped for photos for being a tall pasty white guy.
  • Stayed on a farm for 4 months in Patagonia, working in return for a roof over my head.

Best place I’ve been?

Lake Bled, Slovenia. It’s not a huge area, but it’s so picturesque & spotlessly clean. If you haven’t been, I highly recommend it!

Why are you still going on?

You’re right, I’ll shut up. If you’re wondering how to get in touch:
