Why The Travelling CRAB?

Hi there! 

Really nice to see you here. You’re probably wondering, why out of all the website names in the world did I choose The Travelling CRAB? Well, I just got married and now my initials are CRAB. Unsurprisingly I also really love to travel. So there you go. Short and simple.

One morning following a night of heavy planning for my honeymoon I thought, it was crazy that I had to search on all these different sites for advice and information on travelling in a camper for three weeks around the Baltics with a toddler (I know, very niche). But it did get me wondering if there was anything out there at all that even came close to offering the varied advice that I wanted. I’m not your typical holiday maker, I like to get out of my comfort zone and I love experiencing different cultures.

So this site is born, I want to bring to you my experiences and advice when travelling around the world, from my past and my future, with young children, as a couple, with friends, family and by myself. It’s also helpful for me to fill the void left by the wedding planning (post wedding blues are a thing), and I hope it will be interesting to you. I also want to keep memoirs and remember my past trips as I never documented them before, and there are hundreds and thousands of miles I have to travel to again from my memories.

Over the last 16 years I have travelled all over Europe, Asia, North America, Australia, New Zealand and a little island hopping in the South Pacific. I’ve seen the first sunrise and the last sunset of an Earth day and I don’t intend on stopping any time soon, even with a toddler in tow.

This is just the start and over the next few weeks I’ll be adding ways you can  join me and adding some interesting and useful content but if you’d like a more regular dose of travel please follow me on Instagram.
