So…. despite having set out on this blogging venture to capture our travels & adventures as something to look back on for years to come (and allow our family to track our travels when we were on the road last year), somehow 7 months have passed without a single sentence. In that time I’ve fully escaped the clutches of Academic Life, having completed my Masters and remembering what it’s like to enjoy some free time. I’ve also moved away from a job that latterly became quite an unpleasant and all-consuming place to work, to a new role that really interests me and offers a far better work-life balance. So I’ve now got more free time than I’ve had in basically the last 5 years, and far more scope to do the travelling and exploring we both love so much. WIN-WIN!
Along the way it’s also become pretty apparent that Ste enjoys more of a proof-reading role than a writing one (he missed the last blog post he was due to write about travelling home from our European Roadtrip and I’ve totally laid all the blame for our 7 month hiatus on him as a result 😂🤷🏼♀️). So looks like I’ll be taking the writing reins. Now that I’ve giddy’d myself up, look out for upcoming posts on recent trips to Spain, NYC, Latvia and our weekend explorations in our gorgeous homeland: Scotland with Louie the Lhasa, our curious travel companion. We also have some pretty exciting trips planned to Turkey & Denmark before the end of the year so keep your eyes peeled for the fruits of my new found freedom. Yee-Hah!
