I’m Emma Marshall and I’m a British travel blogger based in London.
I specialise in UK and European short breaks and day trips – places you can visit within about 3 to 4 hours from the UK. As I live in London, I also write about some of the top things you can see and do in the capital.
I work, so my travel time can be limited. I know there are many other people trying to balance their time in the same way as me – trying to carve out time to explore amazing places, while still holding down a job and career.
Until a few years ago, this was a dilemma for me – how to travel frequently enough to fuel my passion, but work enough to fund it: how to travel on a time budget.
Then, after a short weekend away, I discovered that with a bit of planning and organisation, anything is possible; I could still keep the day job and travel frequently. So 2016 was the year I experimented with this and found that I was able to visit 10 different places with just my annual leave allowance, plus a few bank holidays thrown in.
What is my blog about?
This blog is designed to give you ideas and inspiration about the places you can visit in Europe and the UK if you have limited time: destinations to consider and top things to do in a place while travelling on a time budget.
I have posts on a wide range of destinations across Europe. You’ll also find sample itineraries for when you only have one or two days in a place.
Happy travelling!
