What you need to Know about me

A serene evening on a rooftop in a traditional Marrakech riad, illuminated by soft golden light, with cosy seating and distinct Moroccan decor.

 

I’m Chris, I started this blog because my favourite subject is travel. Anyone who knows me can tell you I am most engaged when hearing about peoples trips or sharing my own! A blog felt like a natural step. 

I gave myself a year to see if I could make it work, starting in April 2024. So here I am, exploring the art of travelling with a 9-5! My goal is to make it easier for you to do the same.

While I would love to be paid to travel full time, the reality for a lot of people, myself included, is that this is not possible.

So I continue to set about making the most of my time off work, maximising those precious holiday days. 

I have one goal, to see and experience as much as I can. 

I have managed to travel to 48 countries so far, ticking off 6 of the 7 continents, Antarctica I’m coming for you!

I have found the blogging world very welcoming so far and, as a result, I am always open to collaboration. Be it for content, information or just to answer some questions. Please feel free to email me chris@globaltripdiaries.com
