About The Well-Travelled Postcard
Welcome! I'm Virginia, a travel blogger and podcaster from the UK, a graduate of MA European Politics and BA European Languages, a serial expat, and travel is an utterly fundamental part of who I am. I hope to inspire you to get out and explore the world, through helping you find opportunities to travel, work, study and live abroad, and by sharing some of the amazing places I’ve encountered so far!

Pros at seeking out those hidden, empty beaches that no one else bothers to hike to 😉
1st stop in Kefalonia = major terrace goals. Complete with vino, G&T, saucisson & olives, Condé Nast, Hemingway & Hislop, and binos for dolphin-spotting & snooping on the superyachts... 😜
Seas the day 🌊 🇬🇷
A special bonus episode of The Well-Travelled Podcast is now live! 🎙 I recorded Series 1 of my podcast in 2020, but I also record one-off bonus episodes from my travels as and when I’m away, reminiscent of the postcards that originally inspired this blog and its name. This bonus episode comes live from my month-long trip to the Greek island of Kefalonia 🇬🇷 – my first trip abroad in 8 months due to the pandemic.
In extremely exciting news, the @uniofexeter @exeter_alumni judging panel have chosen me as a joint winner of the Alumni Volunteer Award 2021 for Exceptional Support of Students! 🏆✨ Thank you so much for this great accolade!! 🌟
New blog post! 📝 The challenges of travelling abroad in 2021 (and how the pandemic extinguished the true traveller in me, and what that means for my identity)
New post! This one's a little different from my usual paintings, as this is a full-scale 'Well-Travelled Mural' of the Dragon's Backbone Rice Terraces in Longsheng, in southern China 🇨🇳
New post! The 6th painting in my series of The Well-Travelled Paintings is from the Côte d'Argent, a 200km-long sandy beach in south-west France 🇫🇷 I took the original photo of my mother & sister @oliviamst back in September 2020, during my only foreign adventure since the pandemic began!
New post! The 5th painting in my series of The Well-Travelled Paintings is from Spetses, one of the Saronic Islands in Greece 🇬🇷 I took the original photo during a brilliant week's sailing around the islands with friends back in 2016. What do you think?
