About United Kingdom Travel Podcast with Oliver Hughes

From the publisher's feed

The show follows the rhythm of living in one part of the United Kingdom, learning its routines, then moving to a connected place. Travelling here means negotiating overcast days, rugged hills, and the long indented coastline that keeps the sea never far away; the North Atlantic Current runs through the forecast.
