About Me

Hi, I'm Lucy.  I started this blog to store my travel memories and share my recommendations . 

 

I'm an introverted bookworm English teacher who also happens to love travelling and adventure, trying terrifying new foods and taking photographs.  Somehow, it works.

​

I used to be so wary of the unknown...until I bit the bullet and signed up for a solo adventure in Thailand when i was 20.  I realised that, when you travel, you can be whoever you want to be - introvert, extrovert, whatever!  I haven't stopped travelling since, both solo and with friends and family (and sometimes even with my dog!).

 

 ​I moved to Germany to teach a few years ago but I still travel every chance I get. Travel for me is finding a balance between the beautiful places everybody has (with good reason) heard about, and the beautiful places that have yet to be discovered on a big scale.  It's about trying local foods and drinks, no matter how terrifying they might look, and also about splurging on a fancy tasting menu every now and again!  It's about capturing beauty, and also knowing when to put the camera away and just soak it all in.  And these days, it's about sharing all this with my husband-slash-travel-buddy-for-life, Patrick, a very much extroverted Canadian.
