What happens when a travel writer can’t travel? I’ve turned to narrating adventures chez moi – home-trotting, if you will. No more talk of mountain hiking, encounters with friendly locals, or the sampling of regional delicacies. Instead, I’ll be reporting on the next best thing: the hum of passive aggression with relatives in close quarters, the anticipation of a food delivery and the art of dodging joggers. I give you “No Travel” Tales, accounts of various realms of home life and that one daily excursion into the outdoors. See the series here: www.spillthebeanstraveller.com/category/no-travel-tales/
