Who am I?

I'm Jenny, I'm 52, female and I'm sorry to tell you, am most definitely, not one of those drop dead gorgeous, go-pro toting travel bloggers, with millions of followers, who (with thanks to YouTube) do seem to be taking over the planet. Nope not me. 
​
I"m squidgy round the edges, have scars and tattoo's, and seem to be constantly fighting off dreadlocks, and not the cool Lenny Kravitz kind.

I'm an extremely dedicated greenie and am always researching new ways to lessen or offset my carbon emissions. Traveling doesn't mean abandoning my principles, I've just found ways to adapt.
​

Picture
I probably have around 27 true followers, (in the non Kevin Bacon sense) 23 of which I'm reasonably sure are my family members, and unless you buy one of my prints, I will make zero dollars off my website this year. 
HOWEVER - I'm out here! I'm doing it and should you wish to follow my adventures, I can MOST CERTAINLY take you along for the ride!

What Will You Find Here?
As much as my stories and adventures are based around what I have had on my bucket list and activities that appeal to me, I'm sure you can find some kind of inspiration or help from everything I've shared over the last 15 years. In fact I'm sure you can. Click on the images below to start with these sections.
Check out my photos of the week from the last two years of travel.

It's so hard to pic a selection of faves, however I think I've nailed it down to at least one or two per country. OK sometimes there is three....
Whats Next?

 Monaco, South of France, Malta & Ionian Islands, Greece.  May 2018!! 
Monaco for the 2018 Classic Grand Prix
Brad is 50 this year and after his talking about the Monaco Grand Prix for as long as I've known him, that's the basis of our trip.
Malta looks stunning with its amazing history and stunning coastline.
After meeting an amazing Maltese couple in South Africa last year, Malta has been high on my list, so that's our next stop.
Ionion Islands in Greece look just stunning.
Finally, wanting to see some of Greece but not having time for all of it, we are heading to the Ionian Islands for 10 days.
