Holidays, travels, weekends & hometowns

by jolou - last update: Feb 2, 2008



Hopefully you will find my pages useful or interesting in some way. I joined VT quite a few years ago and have had phases of building pages obsessively and then I haven't looked at the site for ages. If nothing else, it's a good way to bore strangers with my holiday snaps!

My most recent long trip was to Vietnam March/April 05, a great place to go to.

Phu Quoc Island, Vietnam

My most detailed page is London, where I have been living now for just over 10 years.

London tips


Favourite things about leaving the UK:

Not being at work - counting down the days beforehand.

Flying - I find it puts everything in perspective being above everything and being able to look down on the world.

Sunshine.
London Eye
London bus window view


Now that after a few years i've worked out how to do it, I thought i'll put in a few quick links to what i reckon are my better pages:

Glastonbury Festival - everyone should go there at least once!


Penang, a great place to visit (see travelogue for piercing festival photos)


My original hometown and surrounding area in Kent


Lanzarote- not at all grotty!


Sydney and the Oz bus experience


Any comments are much appreciated or if you have any questions about places feel free to email me :o)



Update September 2006 ... My world has recently shrunk somewhat, although widened in other ways due to the birth of our baby son in May this year. Any more exotic plans are on hold for a while although look out for some baby-friendly tips coming soon!!
