About this blog

As most of you know, I'm currently in London doing research for my dissertation on the history of childbirth in 17th-century England. Interesting topic, huh? Oh, the fun stuff historians get to explore! I will be in London for the 4 weeks, and will then travel to Scotland, Ireland, and France for the following two. While in London, I plan to take a few day trips to surrounding areas including Canterbury, Dover, Bath, and Stonehenge. Maybe Windsor if time permits.

Please travel vicariously with me though this blog's pictures and posts. Feel free to leave feedback, travel suggestions, and the other such comments. I always welcome comments about how much you love and miss me and can't wait to see my smiling face again!:)
