Julie & Andy's Year Out to travel, Carpediem !
Подписаться
Hello we are Andy and Julie we have taken a years (or maybe more) sabbatical from work to travel at home and abroad.

To date our travels have included St Lucia, Martinique, back packing in Columbia and Peru. At home we have visited St Ives (Cornwall), Cumbria, North Devon and just back from an 8 week adventure in France staying in the Dordogne and Lot region

We are now home in Northamptonshire ( England) exploring all of the local gems as well as trips to the Lake District, sailing on the South coast and much more.

Later in the year our adventures and travels will include Hong Kong, Vietnam and Sardinia.

This year is about new adventures , new experiences , pausing the 9-5 , spending time with family and learning new skills. Our mantra for the year is CARPE DIEM (seize the day) !!

It looks like a beautiful classic British country home. Thank you for this video . I used to like the Spencer Family ... ...until I read they invited Meghan to stay. I am quite sure if Meghan arrives .... William could possibly walk ..... Careful what you wish for .... Unfortunately ...Harry has ruined himself.... Meghan has ruined herself. We all had great hopes for them ...

Highly recommend parking up at the park and ride at St Erth train station. Then catch the branch line train direct into St Ives. On a nice sunny day sit back relax on one of the most beautiful train rides you will take. In the peak summer months its a no brainer, this takes the stress out of driving around endlessly trying to park up. Great video, glad you enjoyed my home county.
