About Me

Hi everyone I’m Sage. Currently living in London. Working as a marketer for a student travel company and freelancing as a travel writer. When I’m not working and travelling you’ll find me drinking tea, reading and blogging. Plus watching all the cat and dog videos I can find.

I’ve been blogging on WordPress since I started university way back in 2011, but since then this blog has evolved into the travel blog you see today. I’ve gone from blogging on a WordPress site to owning my own domain, and since becoming self hosted and purchasing this new (and awesome) blog theme.

If you want to see more about my travels follow me on Instagram Or if you want to hear more of my ramblings whilst travelling follow me on Twitter.

  • (GIFTED) Birthday boating 🥳 🛥 💦 I was lucky enough to spend my birthday boating along the river around Kingston and Hampton Court. Such beautiful views, company and weather. Thank you to @goboatldn for the experience.
  • (GIFTED) Discovering the street art in Brooklyn’s Bushwick was one of my favourite parts of our New York trip. I got to learn more about the area and @thebushwickcollective whilst seeing pieces from both new and familiar artists. Thanks again @icelollyholiday for the experience and for @danm121 for snapping this photo!
  • (AD) Riding around the subway with my head buried in a book. And a pretty useful book at that! We were one our way to Brooklyn to visit @barcade all thanks to an insider tip from my @marcopologuides! We spent the afternoon playing arcade games, browsing record stores and wandering around thrift shops in Brooklyn. Thanks for the 📷 @danm121
  • Missing these New York City Views right about now. In honour of these views I’ve updated one of my old NYC blog posts to include the Staten Island Ferry as one of the best views in NYC. Keep your eyes peeled!
  • Had been waiting forever to spot this street art piece in NYC and then we stumbled on it after a day exploring Soho! I love that you can wander the city of New York and find street art pieces wherever you go. It’s like London in that respect! Thanks for the photo @danm121 😘
  • If you’re in NYC I would highly recommend cycling around Central Park. It’s a quick and fairly cheap ($20 per person) way of seeing all of the park. Be warned it is a 10km ride and it’s super uphill in parts. Stock up on pancakes before setting off! Thanks for the 📷 @danm121
  • (AD) 18 miles of old, new and rare books can be found in Strand Book Store. It’s a book lovers paradise! And surprisingly enough I hadn’t come across this place in any of research until I started reading my @marcopologuides of New York City! 📚
  • Staten Island Ferry views. This time we made sure we took a free ride in the Staten Island Ferry after missing out last time. The views of the city and the Statue of Liberty were great and it was made all the better that the sun was out!
  • Spending time in Brooklyn was on our list for this trip to NYC and today we accomplished just that! We browsed record shops and thrift stores, spotted some street art, played arcade games and got some great views of the Manhattan skyline. It’s been a day of wandering but we loved every second.
  • Out of office is finally on! I’m jetting off to NYC on Monday and I am so unbelievably excited. I’ve got some awesome things lined up already including a street art tour, Dan’s very own pizza tour and a ride on the Staten Island Ferry! New York I’ll be seeing you Monday! Have a good weekend everyone!
  • Yesterday my love asked me to marry him and I said yes! And after lots and lots of tears we headed off to a fancy pants hotel and then went for pizza slices and cans of cider.
  • These last few years I’ve really made a conscious effort to become a more eco-friendly traveller. And one way I’ve done so is by testing a lot of eco-friendly travel products. I’ve finally found a bunch that work for me and in my latest blog I share these with you! I hope you enjoy reading and hopefully find a product you may like to try too!
