Welcome to our travel blog!

Travellers Pen

I’m Emma and I’m an aspiring travel blogger. My daughters and I recently took our first trip to the UK for three weeks. That's us at West Horsley Place, also known as Button House from the BBC TV series Ghosts.

We flew out from Melbourne on 18 September 2025 and spent the first few days in London, including a day trip to Paris via the Eurostar. We then hired a car and made our way around the UK, finishing back in London.

You can explore our journey below!
