About

Hello and welcome to Dreaming of The Next Trip! I’m always either dreaming about my next trip or planning it so I thought I’d start a travel blog to write about it as well. My specific travel interests include nature/scenery, history, museums, theatre, and food and drink.

I love travelling but perhaps even more than the trips, I love dreaming about new destinations, planning my next trip and remembering the last one! I’m far removed from usual young, trendy full-time travel bloggers. I don’t travel full time (and wouldn’t want to) but within the confines of a full time professional job and family commitments, I travel as much as I can. Based in England, I’ve visited Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, Ireland, France, Spain, Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Croatia, Czechia, United States, Canada, Australia and South Africa, with many more to come (hopefully!). Here are just a few of my travel highlights so far:

South Kaibab Trail, Grand Canyon, Arizona

I’ve had some great travel experiences so far, but the best trip is always the next one! Happy travels.
