For all of you wondering, yes, Ting and I met in person, finally! And what I lovely women she is, it is definitely something special to meet in person someone you have been in contact for such a long time only online. It was hugs after hugs and we just couldn’t stop talking, for this reason we ended up not taking one photo, which means you will have to believe in us when we say we met each other! I promise, we really did!
So now that the 2 hosts of Monday Escapes have actually met each other, let’s get going with the links (this week is over here on the blog) and our favourites, shall we?

What is Monday Escapes?
Monday Escapes is all about looking back a wonderful, happy travel memories and sharing them with others. It doesn’t have to be abroad or even a written post. If you want to share your favourite snapshots – whether it’s a famous site, scene, dramatic view or even a favourite family photo, then please feel free to link those up, too. Likewise, posts don’t have to be about holidays or weekends away, they can also include day trips, walks, attractions – any travel experience that you want to share.
How to join in

- Posts are anything travel-related, and can include photos, reviews, days out, attractions and walks – at home or abroad.
