Experience England (c)
2020 - 2026

Five and a half years of slow (only slow because I am financially vulnerable after being tripped up on purpose, jealousy - SABOTAGE!) and immersive travel.

In my home country, the country where I was born but at times treated like an illegal immigrant and a piece of dirt by government officials working in the job centre or behind the scenes. Accessing private data without permission and categorising families, tricking and sabotaging decent hard working individuals as well as these funny workers that lord it up over the customer example would be YHA where the cleaners thought they were above everybody.

Due to the forced sale of my two bedroom apartment with a little sweet garden, landscaped by myself - my home (rsa insurance) and covid, I have been able to uncover some national treasures - here are some of my favourites so far...HOWEVER - please note how they love to rip you off in England, steal, manipulate, pretend and lie. Overpriced accommodation and actors that pretend to be lovely but bully each other behind the scenes - example of this is the Falcon Hotel Cornwall, Champneys Forest Mere West Sussex, Premier Marinas Cafe Birdham, Mercedes Benz World, Brooklands (yep the industrial site with the Weybridge sewage treatment plant just at the back on your way to Addlestone by train.

ps, I was still working a job and paying my taxes!

South Downs Road Trip and home made pancakes with fresh milk from the local farm, Buddington Bottled. Milkshakes and sacks of potatoes and free range eggs...

The Cowdray Heritage Ruins are one of England’s most important early Tudor houses and Cowdray is known to have been visited by both King Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth I. In September 1793.

Behind the scenes verbally abused by the local mad neighbour. Harassed by the estate agent and government officials all over the business during the first year of covid.

Swimming in the Historic Sea Pool

Bude Sea Pool is a semi-natural tidal pool and is a safe haven for wild swimming on the edges of the Atlantic Ocean, Cornwall.

Behind the scenes - mad man in job centre, some crazy actors and bullies in the Falcon Hotel, over priced pasties, and body board stolen.

Lawn mowers out around the campsites nearly every day even though the grass does not need cutting - perhaps to wake us up even though we are suppose to be resting and recovering and on holiday? Perhaps that is why we go to Spain?

The Donkey Sanctuary

No trip to Devon is complete without visiting The Donkey Sanctuary - a tranquil corner of the Jurassic Coast where hundreds of donkeys are waiting to meet you.

Dartmoor National Park

White Lady Waterfall National Trust Lydford Gorge

Fishbourne Roman Palace & Gardens

Fishbourne Roman Palace, the largest Roman home in Britain.

Imagine the luxury that would once have surrounded the proud owner of this lavish Roman residence.

Stroll around the recreated Roman gardens – the earliest gardens found anywhere in the country – and enjoy the largest collection of mosaics in situ in the UK.

Witches

Places that you may encounter witches incude: Byfleet, Addlestone, Woking, Surrey hills, Cornwall...

Look closely the older woman may have blonde bobbed hair

You can tell because of the toxic tongues- look closely at the mouth, eyes are also a give away cold and heartless...

They are very good actors and dislike pretty and intelligent girls and women. Signs include gossiping, getting into your private affairs, they decide who you are, what your life looks like, they love to meddle.

Standing way too close is another sign, breathing you in, lying about your true identity and character to others. Some even call them snakes.

Way too much talking and only interested in money making, driven by money, would sell their soul for money " the root of all evil" merchants

others are just home wreckers and feed off energy they have usually had a bad start in life or unhappy childhood not normally their fault. Happy to steal your identity so be very careful.

St Botolph’s, Cambridge

St Botolph's, a parish church at the heart of the ancient university city of Cambridge. There has been a church here since the time of the ancient Trumpington Gate, and appropriately for a church dedicated to a patron saint of travellers it welcomes many thousands of visitors each year to admire its beautiful 700 year old building enriched by some fine Victorian decoration.

Quenns College - famous for ancient buildings and a riverside site; if you visit, you’ll see that the College has evolved throughout its six centuries and that Queens’ as a place and as a community is very much engaged with the present and looking to the future.

Why not have your photograph taken by the Mathematical Bridge or enjoy a punt ride.

But be aware of thiefs as well as parts of Cambridge are very stinky. Try to stick to the tourist areas and enjoy the amazing history but be warned there is a dark side, cronies, gangsters, drugs, drunks, homeless and as of today lots of office space empty where companies have moved out. Houses overpriced and decent hardworking locals pushed out.

Government officials nasty in Cambridge job centre with no real opportunities only labour or bio tech or retail or hospitality key worker jobs.

Thames Path - National Trails

Fancy a challenge?

The Thames Path is a long distance walking trail, following England’s best known river for 185.2miles (298 km) as it meanders from its source in the Cotswolds through several rural counties and on into the heart of London. On its way the Trail passes peaceful water meadows rich in wildlife, historic towns and cities and many lovely villages, finishing in Woolwich just a few miles from the sea.

Please note: I only walked a small part of the Thames Path - Shepperton - Weybridge - Walton BUT still magic - met with Egyptian Geese family, eight goslings.

Allow half a day and don't forget to stop off at either the local pub or coffee shop, you've earned it!. You can always loop back around by crossing the Thames via a short boat ride :-)

How lucky am I to also capture a pair of black swans (Cygnus atratus) in flight coming down to land on the water - the river was branching into two and one of the swans went the other way so once he had landed he had to turn around to find his mate!

Be aware of the amount of learning difficulties and specials needs in Surrey they may trip you up or talk about you behind your back.

V&A South Kensington, a world of creativity in the heart of London

Welcome to V&A South Kensington, a world of creativity in the heart of London. From unmissable exhibitions to extraordinary collections, there is something for everyone at the global destination for art, design and performance.

Admission is free

Some exhibitions and events carry a separate charge.

Chertsey Museum and Thorpe Park

Over priced property and campsites. Run down but there is an amazing theme park just around the corner which you can reach by bus.

Picturedrome - Bognor Regis

Located conveniently opposite Bognor Regis Railway Station, The Picturedrome Cinema was originally built in 1885. This Grade II listed building is now split into four screens and features digital projectors and Dolby Digital Surround Sound.

Very popular with the Polish and you can taste the local food just a few streets away from the town centre.

Still very industry with some of the local families living with mental health issues tucked away. Favourite foods include chilli con carne and garlic bread every night - personal experience staying with an older couple on Bogna for a few weeks via spare rooms.

Bosham

A small attractive village on one of the small inlets of Chichester harbour, Bosham

Inhabited by the Romans, Bosham was the sixth most important town in Sussex in the 8th century.

It was from Bosham that Harold II set forth in 1064 to negotiate with William of Normandy, a voyage that led to William the Conqueror's return in 1066;

Bosham features in the Bayeaux Tapestry.

Be aware of over priced caravan parks, hotels and air B&B where you are being totally ripped off. Way over priced and evil greedy people taking your money.

Hindhead Commons and the Devil's Punch Bowl

Explore the open heathland, ancient woodland and discover the myths and legends of the Punch Bowl along the way.

Fish and Chips

Recommend a local fish and chip shop in the area you are visiting to really get to know the local friendly people. A great way to fill yourself up and feel part of the local community.

Check out the specials board.

A selection of great fish and chip shops I visited include: Farncombe (one of my favourites) Midhurst, Chertsey (another one of my favourites)

Old Woking, Selsey, East Wittering - shack by the sea and the Hand & Spear, Weybridge for a great pub version of fish and chips or check out Crown & Anchor, Dell Quay, Birdham - outside in the summer - sooooo good, atmosphere amazing :-) and views spectacular.
