About

Hey everyone!
Welcome to my blog. My name is Kirstin and I am here to show you that you can travel and see the world without quitting your day job and within a budget.

My Story

My childhood was spent roaming around the English countryside with my small family of 6. Armed with a tent (and a kettle – apparently the most important item) we ventured in to places like Weymouth and Cornwall. I don’t want to say that I came from a poorer than average background, but honestly and realistically, I did. It wasn’t until I was 19 that I took my first trip abroad for my birthday – Paris.
It was soon after that trip that I hopped on a plane for the first time too. My first flight was to NYC was later that year. (I really jumped in at the deep end there, 9 hours!) It was after this trip that despite my fear of flying, my love for travel went way beyond a yearly holiday.

Lets Go Somewhere Else was created with my past and present in mind. Not every one has money or time for lavish holidays; with popular social media photos creating travel envy and wanderlust you never knew you had, all you need to be armed with is an open mind, a few days holiday allowance and your set budget.

But who actually am I?

I’m currently 30 years old. I live in Zone 6 in London (The furthest one from Central London) where I have lived my whole life. I enjoy weekend road trips (I can’t actually drive either haha), Journaling, Movies and Kdramas. I’d also consider myself a “foodie” too. 

I take all my own photos (all the photos on this blog!) and I just shoot with iPhone. I currently have iPhone 11. Sometimes I bring out my big outdated DSLR, which is a Canon EOS 500D.

…and that’s me! I hope you enjoy my website and if you want to contact me at all you can do so here:
