When COVID Scuppers Your Travel Plans

Ship Rocks, Birchen Edge, Peak District National Park, England.

Q. What do you do when COVID-19 scuppers your travel plans?

A. Remind yourself how beautiful and varied your own country is!

When our overseas plans fell through this summer (2020), we decided to spend five weeks travelling around many lesser-known parts of the UK instead.

We kept as off the beaten track and socially distanced as possible, for the most part camping - and truly rediscovered our own country.

Weekdays from tomorrow, I’ll be capturing images and words from our summer travels in England and Scotland using Instagram (@travelswithspice or https://www.instagram.com/travelswithspice/) ... reserving this blog for when written inspiration next comes my way!

I hope, as the chill, dark nights and restrictions of autumn draw on, you’ll enjoy a reminder of those long, warm and relatively carefree days of summer...
