Welcome to my blog

**** New: photos from our trip to the Silk Road in Central Asia August-September 2023

I’d been thinking about starting a blog for some time, but finally got going when I wanted to show some of the photos I took on our 6000 mile 7-week road trip through 12 countries in summer 2015.

I wanted to write something more than a short caption for my photos and I wanted to record some of the highs and lows of the trip.

I’ve written up other trips we’ve made since then, including going round the world in 2016. You can find links to all of these on the Travels page.

I am no fan of Facebook which, in my view, is not well-designed software, but I do occasionally try to post links to photo albums and to this blog on it. You can also occasionally find me on twitter at @susanhockey

And, if you are wondering about the header picture, it’s mist in Upper Nidderdale – the view from our house.

Enjoy
