About
I visit tourist attractions; especially offbeat or quirky hidden gems.
As well as museums and art galleries I also look at historical stately homes and parks and- being a touch macabre- I like to explore graveyards.
My main focus is London, and day trips that are possible from London. I concentrate on accessibility via public transport.
I'm a passionate advocate for British tourism, so like to check out different towns and cities- especially seaside resorts.
Don't forget to subscribe, and come take a walk in my shoes and let's see if we can discover something fabulous today!
