replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie #pttravel greetings from Glasgow. I have lived here exactly a year (well, I got the flat keys exactly a year ago yesterday but didn't overnight here until the Monday (16th), so it's a weekend-long acknowledgement!


Hi everyone, been out to East Yorkshire but back at home a little further south in North Yorkshire right now. How’s that for geography! Some lovely sunsets this weekend. #PTTravel

@kate_frankie #pttravel A1: I tend to walk around suburbia a lot. It's amazing what you can find on even an out-the-way residental street.

A1 #pttravel Usually nothing specific. I’ll just walk around. If I’m in a big city in the US, I’ll try to find a @mlb ballpark & see a game. This was Kansas City & Kauffman Stadium where the @Royals play. I had wanted to visit this park forever.


A1: I like to explore the hidden corners of a city. The narrow alleys leading to old buildings, tiny plazas, painted facades, etc #PTTravel


replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A1. When visiting a city at home or abroad, I try to mix it up with a bit of cafe culture, a look around any striking museums and churches, a walk along the river or around the lake, and some chill-out time at a cemetery or zoo. #PTTravel

@kate_frankie #pttravel A1: In my time in Glasgow I'm using the railway stations as 'signposts', so I know if I haven't been to a railway station it means I haven't explored that bit of the urban area. So for me it's just a desire to see something new.
Even if it's just a row of housing!

I'm in North East England, near Durham and its hot and sunny. Did a short jog and need to get a longer training run in on Wednesday


A2 Most recently, Tarragona in Cataluña…to such a degree that it’s certainly on the radar as an area I’d consider moving to in the not so distant future. #PTTravel


A2 #pttravel I was surprised visiting Rome the amount of ancient ruins you can find just walking around the city.


A1: Rome always surprises you. There is something waiting to be discovered at every corner, be it a statue on a building, a fresco, a house full of flowers, or even a shop :) #PTTravel


replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A2. Recently, I’d have to say Aberdeen. I went to university there for four years but am only now appreciating just how much it has to offer. #PTTravel


replying to @NomadKeith @NomadKeith @RTWBarefoot @kate_frankie I don’t understand how people get too lost in Venice as there are directional signs to the major landmarks seemingly at every turn. It’s a city I love to meander in. 😉#pttravel
