Exploring the world through the web

Experiencing life in any way you can.

About February 23, 2010

So here’s where I write about me… hmm well my name’s Claire and I’ve decided to keep a blog as a personal journal to remind me of what happens on a  day to day basis, the kind of things I forget at the end of a year. I also want a way to share the discoveries I make about the world through amazing sites I find. I hope that other people will also let me know about sites I never knew existed.

More about me – I live in Norfolk, in the UK, I have done my whole life. It’s a beautiful county with so much to see and do – in fact my next project is to write a virtual Norfolk holiday, to be able to share it with other people who may not be able to visit.

I live with my Mum and brother Simon and they are hugely important to me, they’ve been by my side through the dreadful 6 years of being bedbound with severe ME and I don’t know what I’d do without them!

I’ve had ME  for 16 years and I’m mainly housebound, although with being able to do so much online now it doesn’t feel as restrictive as it used to! I love reading, listening to music, scrapbooking, spending time with family and friends, organising parties and going to gigs and the cinema.

If you want to get in touch then please send me an email – I love that little noise when my new mail arrives! It’s the 21st Century version of letters on the door mat!

  1. It’s a pleasure to meet you Claire … I look forward to your blog posts! I didn’t realize blog wasn’t in the dictionary – maybe it’s weblog?

      Lovely to meet you too. I know I couldn’t believe it either – probably is under something else – just makes me do a double take each time I see it thinking I’ve made a spelling mistake!

  2. I stumbled onto your blog, and I just wanted to say hi, its nice to meet you! :)

    Hi Claire, thank you so much for visiting my blog and your nice comments. I look forward to following you as well. Aside from the enjoyment I get from writing in my blog I love when I stumble upon a blog (like yours) that inspires me and reminds me why I started this in the first place and how much it means to express myself. Keep writing!

      Thank you, that means a lot – I started writing for myself because I didn’t imagine anyone would want to read it; but I’ve met some really lovely people because of my blog. Sometimes you just click on a blog and think wow this is just what I’ve been looking for!
