Trott Around Travel

Croatia expert Mary Novakovich tells me about the book she is writing on the land of her parents. Foodies will also want to listen to this.  

The Daily Telegraph's Spain expert Annie Bennett gives the lowdown on the new travel restrictions to and from Spain.

Geoff Haden has long been involved in tourism in Swansea (Wales) as owner of Clyne Farm Activity Centre (clynefarm.com), which also has self-catering accommodation, and 5 Cwmdonkin Drive, the birthplace of poet and playwright Dylan Thomas (dylanthomasbirthplace.com). The latter is a member of Literary Houses and Museums of Great Britain (lithouses.org) and was voted Best Small Attraction in Swansea Bay 2019 in the local tourism awards. I chat to Geoff about how lockdown has affected his businesses.

I chat to Brittany-based writer and historian Wendy Mewes about her new book, Wayfaring in Brittany (Red Dog Books), and find out why France's Celtic region is such a great place to get off the beaten track - especially for walkers and history buffs. I also learn a thing or two about crepes and galettes. You can find her on Twitter @brittanyexpert.
