About Me
Let's Get Acquainted
Hi, my name's Simon, I'm a late 50's married father of three. Towards the end of 2018 I retired and found myself comfortably off with time on my hands. I've always enjoyed history, the natural world and travel so I decided to try and combine the three things whilst young enough to do so.
Deciding to travel is one thing, planning and execution something else entirely. As always the internet provided too much information but I noticed the majority of sites and blogs tended to be geared towards the younger traveller on a budget, that's not to say they're not helpful, they are but I thought it might be interesting to put my thoughts and experiences into a blog.
I started this site to help others in the same boat as me and welcome any and all feedback about how I can make this site more useful for it's readers and am of course happy to answer any questions you might have. A word of warning, it is just a hobby and I do have a busy life so whilst I will always try and respond as quickly as possible there may be a delay of a few days.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read my website and I look forward to hearing any comments you might have.
