Oh Darling! Let's Go Exploring!

They say, “If you travel far enough, you’ll meet yourself.”

I never really understood what that meant — not until I flew across the world at 43, completely alone, for the very first time.

There are no words that fully capture what that kind of experience does to you. But I can tell you this: I came back taller. I felt capable. Awake. Free. Something cracked open inside me — and in its place, a quiet knowing bloomed: I can go anywhere. I can do anything.

Explore is my love letter to that feeling.

Here, you’ll find stories, places, and spaces that inspire us to move beyond our comfort zones — even if that just means driving somewhere new, taking a solo day trip, or finally booking that dream destination you've had on your Pinterest board since 2012.

There’s nothing quite like watching a film, seeing a beautiful street or a sun-drenched plaza… and then one day finding yourself there. Sitting on that fountain. Eating in that exact restaurant. Just surreal. I remember sitting outside of The Plaza in New York and thinking I am sitting just about where Carrie has sat in the past. (I love her).

So this is your invitation: To go exploring. To feel something new. To say yes.

And if you’ve been somewhere amazing — whether it’s local or across the globe — I’d love to hear about it. Share your travel story, tips, or favourite spot with me anytime. I’m always collecting fabulous places… and the fabulous faces who’ve been there.

Let’s go exploring.

Evie xoxo
