Hi, I'm zoe
Backpacking traveller, adventure seeker, writer.
I’ve always loved to travel. From countryside or seaside day trips in the UK to fast-paced city breaks and idyllic weeks on tropical beaches.
So, in 2021, I pressed pause on my corporate writing job to backpack around the world. A journey that is documented through the in-depth, honest and practical travel guides I write as a travel blogger.
zoegoesplaces.com is for everyone who wants to travel – near or far, long haul or hometown, rain or shine. From Shanghai to Scotland, Mexico to Manchester. The aim is to simply provide you with the information to plan and have a memorable trip.
