Who Are The Couple Behind Trip Adviseher?
We first met in Year 7 at school and largely ignored each other throughout the 5 years at Secondary School.
By chance, coincidence, or perhaps fate, we met again at a local gig for one of our favourite bands, Little Comets. After going out for a few months we were a couple and since then we have taken advantage of the budget airline deals, going to all sorts of weird, wonderful and wacky places along the way.
Trip Adviseher will give you hints, tips and advice from our journeys.
How Many Countries have we visited?
Between us we have visited 35 countries together and in time we will comprehensively cover every country and city we have visited.
Hobbies and Interests
Emma:
My hobbies include the obvious, going on holiday but I also enjoy a good shop (which girl doesn’t?)
I’m an avid hula hooper and I like to spend time in the gym (one day I might get that beach bod).
I also really enjoy taking photos, especially when we’re on holiday. Every corner we turn, you’ll see me with my camera out. All of the photographs on Trip Adviseher are my own. I drive Michael up the wall with how many I want to take!
Michael:
I’m a huge Spurs fan and I try to get to as many Spurs games, both home and away. Following Spurs has allowed me to travel to cities in Europe such as Turin, Florence, Rome, Dortmund and Barcelona. All of which we will eventually cover on Trip Adviseher.
I enjoy running and have completed the Great North Run 5 times, with a record time of 1 hour and 34 minutes.
I also enjoy fishing, not fishing in the traditional sense, but I love to wind Emma up, she always bites.
