More about us and what you can find on RestlessFeet

RestlessFeet is a travel site that provides reviews, guides, and stories about places that inspire us when we visit.

With nearly 15 years of travel writing each, we have plenty of travel stories, reviews and content to share with you.  Although we are all based in or near London in the UK, we travel extensively across the UK and further afield in Europe, the USA, the Caribbean, Asia and more.

Some of us spend two to three months each year on sabbatical outside the UK, while others prefer shorter trips.  Our team of writers cover a range of interests, from skiing to gastronomy and from sailing to heritage. 

What we have in common is a passion for exploring and for sharing our favourite destinations.

You can find out more about each of us from the contributors page, and you can contact us via email (fiona@restlessfeet.com)
