If there is something we know for certain, it’s that we are happiest on a road trip. We have been roaming around in our campervan for years now and that carefree feeling as soon as you jump on road never gets old. The Canadian Rockies has been on our list for so long that when I asked Key where he wants to go for his 30th birthday, Canada was the only option. I can’t tell you how long I have been dreaming about road tripping through those epic mountains and seeing those *iconic* bluer than blue lakes. So, we booked a camper with Karma Campervans and a day after Key turned 30, we embarked on our adventure of a lifetime.

When I think of last summer, my trip to The Lake District springs to mind instantly. A trip that saw myself and my adventure buddy, Key, swimming in Derwent water, kayaking along Windermere, hiking up hills and lazily waking up in the back of our van to scenic backdrops. Artists and adventurers alike are drawn to the lakes for it is truly one of the most special places in the UK. I wholeheartedly agree.

After being gifted a National Trust membership for Christmas, I have since been on a mission to tick off as many locations as I can before the year is up.

There is nothing I love more than having the opportunity to spend a long weekend away in the countryside.

Read moreA TRIP ALONG THE NORTH NORFOLK COAST
June is always a month of adventure for us. It is our birthday month and each year we head away on a fun camper trip somewhere in the UK. North Norfolk’s coastline has been on our to-see list for the longest time. We have read of the flat lands, windmills, and the villages full of flint houses and knew that eventually curiosity would get the better of us and we would have to visit.
