About Me

Hi! I’m Michelle, I’m a Kiwi girl born and bred, living in Nottingham, England with my husband and travel buddy. We both have a passion for History and travel and we often choose our destinations based on the history of the area. I started this blog to connect with fellow travelers, document my own travels and pass on my own tips and tricks that I’ve picked up along the way.

Spent a day visiting Greenwich while we were in London this weekend. No visit to Greenwich is complete without a trip to the Cutty Sark - the only remaining Tea Clipper in the UK #greenwichvillage #cuttysark #london #weekendaway #kiwiinengland

The Reform Tower, also known as the Earl Grey Towe

The Reform Tower, also known as the Earl Grey Tower, located in the Stanton Moors. We came across the tower after having checked out the Nine Ladies stone circle. Built in the mid 1800's by William Pole Thornhill and dedicated to the Reform Act of 1832 (pushed through by the 2nd Earl Grey) it was used as a shooting tower for the Thornhill family.

Kirby Muxloe Castle is a cute little castle stop on a day out around Leicester. It was never completed after the death of Lord Hastings in 1483, even though his family lived there for another 150yrs
