I’m Lucy (hence the dodgy loose/Luce pun), a freelance editor and designer from Cheltenham in the UK with a passion for travel. Back in 2011, I gave up the day job after 10 years in London to develop a more flexible lifestyle. I did the whole ‘give up everything and travel for years’ backpacking trip in my 20s, but now with a business, house, family and friends, I’m trying to bring them all together. So I mix up travel and home life – with trips ranging from weekends in the UK and Europe to more far-flung exotic trips.
I still travel on a budget, but have done my share of hostels, overnight buses and instant noodles. Today my travels come with a touch of luxury – proper beds, internals flights and a glass of wine included. Join me as I share my travel tales, tips and photos – and if you have a travel question, drop me a message at lucydodsworth@yahoo.com or on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram.
My favourite travel blogs
I’m something of an obsessive travel blog reader (especially when I’m supposed to be doing something useful) but have a few favourites that I keep coming back to:
- Part-time travellers combining travel and everyday life: Eff It I’m on Holiday and John the Go
- Parents exploring the world with and without their kids: The Travel Hack and Mummy Travels
- My fellow Top UK Travel Bloggers: Travel with Kat, The Travelbunny, Weekend Candy and Savoir There.
