Find out more about Where Charlie Wanders

So, who am I?

I’m Charlie,  a 30-something, single, homeowner, working in training events, and with a huge passion for travel and wandering. I created this blog in 2017, and want to share my joy for exploring the world. All around a 9-5!

I am passionate about three things in travel:

1. Solo travel in your 30’s
2. Adventutre travel doesn’t have to be exclusively for those who long term travel 
3. Travelling is still possible if you are anxious 

I live in the delightful city of Norwich, UK and take great joy in exploring my local area. But nothing thrills me more, than taking a trip to a new destination.

How do I travel?

Not everyone has the ability to indulge in long-term travel; this is where I come in. Whether the restrains be time or money, I have found ways to work around the system!

I am an expert as fitting as much travel as I can into an as small amount of time as available.

From city breaks with hacks and tips on making the most of your time in a place. To long-haul destinations in a shorter time frame.

As a single female, I travel solo a lot. I often join group travel tours, as I find them a fantastic way to maximise your time in one place. As well as making friends and finding a feeling of security.

If you want to maximise your travel on minimum time or want to know more about travelling as a single 30-something woman, this is the place!

Why blog?

I started this blog in 2017 as a way of documenting my quest to visit 30 countries before I turned 30 years of age.

In 2016 I reached my 30th Country, Guatemala, but decided not to stop there.

As my travel life evolved, so did my blog, and I carried on documenting where in the world I wandered to.

I document my own memories and also share tips, thoughts, and advice and also hope to inspire a little bit of wanderlust.

Where have I been?
