"Finally an England page :)" a England Travel Page by sabsi

Until this year everytime I was in England it was either on a short trip to London or just going through. But I had always dreamt of seeing places like Liverpool, York or Newcastle.

Now I finally had the chance to see more of this beautiful country. And .... VT mad it possible :)

I visited Steve and Susan Tilly who I met on VT ages ago and we travelled around the north of England. Along the way I met many other friendly VTers who showed me bits of their country, cooked for me, let me stay in their house. Thanks to everybody I met. I had a wonderful time!
