About

My name is Adrian Riley and I first started writing blogs when the company I worked for gave me 6 months paid leave as a long service award. My first blogs were about travelling and this has continued to be my main theme, although my other main interests of walking and a love of real ale, usually get woven into my stories somewhere. I enjoy watching football, but these days it tends to be only the trials and tribulations of Sheffield Wednesday, the team I grew up supporting. They occasionally get a mention in my blogs, but I tend to keep them low profile for very good reason 😀. I grew up in Sheffield, where I met and married my wife Alison, we have two beautiful daughters Ellie and Meg and the most gorgeous granddaughter Delilah. I currently live in Lincolnshire, on the edge of the Fens. 

Me and my wife both took early retirement in 2022 and decided to buy a Motorhome so that we could enjoy lots of travel experiences with our Springer Spaniel dog, Oscar. We called our MoHo Marleen, which is an amalgamation of my mum and my wife's mums names Margaret and Eileen. We have had some great adventures travelling as far north as Nordkapp on the northern tip of Norway and to the Sahara Desert in Morocco, plus lots of countries in between. My blogs are not in any way shape or form intended as a travel blog, they are more about our experiences as we travel, but if you are interested in where we have been, you will see lots of information on our Polar Steps pages (link below). There might be a snippet or two of information that may help you with your planning.

I hope you enjoy reading my blogs as much as I enjoy writing them. I quite often say to my wife I don't know why I bother as I'm sure nobody reads them, but every so often someone will say to me, I really enjoyed your last blog, which is a real motivation for me. So don't be shy with any comments you want to make, at least I know there is someone out there who has taken the time to visit my blog and it's not just me sitting at home chuckling to myself as I reread my posts.

Below are links to my Polar Steps and social media pages where you can follow me and also comment.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog
