And Traveling the World
If you love getting outdoors and into the English countryside as much as I do, today I want to share my top picks for Cotswolds walks by train with you. These beautiful country walking routes offer scenic trails to follow to immerse yourself in some of the most bucolic scenery in the United Kingdom. With traditional villages, rolling hills, and plenty of sheep, they’ll show you the best of the Cotswolds. I’ve done them all and I can personally vouch for them. I’ve included a map, too.
One of the things I love about living in London is that there are so many beautiful rail journeys one can take from the UK capital. From day trips to weekend getaways and longer escapes, there’s no shortage of scenic train rides from London. Today I want to share my favorites with you. Whether you’re interested in visiting cities, the coast, or the countryside, there’s one for you. I’ve included a map, too.
I love exploring London on foot. That’s particularly true in the City of London, where narrow passageways and historic lanes make for great discoveries. They also reveal some of the UK capital’s oldest and most atmospheric pubs. If you love walks and watering holes as much as I do, read on for my City of London pub walk. There’s a map, too.
One of my favorite things about London is that the city is comprised of a series of villages. Each has its own personality, and one of my favorites is Barnes. Located in the Borough of Richmond-upon-Thames, this part of southwest London is beloved for its pretty streets, independent shops, and natural beauty. Right on the river, it’s a great place to discover a local part of London most visitors (and many locals) miss. Read on for my guide. I’ve included a map, too.
