Birmingham Blog

Since there are so many fantastic places to visit in Birmingham and the surrounding West Midlands area last weekend my friend Nadine and I decided to go to Leamington Spa in collaboration with Visit Birmingham. We were both looking forward to the trip as it’s a place we had never visited before.

Luckily the UK has many different locations that are worthy of travelling to. My personal aim of this year was to stretch as far as I could, and see parts of the UK I'd never thought of exploring.

I've made Birmingham my home for the past 16 years. My husband and I love getting to know the city over the years. Birmingham has grown up as much as we have over these years.
