About Me

Thanks for visiting my blog! My name is Betsy and have lived in London since 2010.  It definitely took me a while to get used to this vast, crazy metropolis that I now call home (and believe me I still have plenty of those 'Marmite moments', especially on the tube at rush-hour, when some random person's armpit is millimetres away from my face!) However I truly love the wonderful melting-pot of cultures, the endless list of things to do and the fact that if you take the time to stop and appreciate it, instead of rushing through the city, you will find yourself immersed in the history of a place which has been home to everyone from Charlie Chaplin to Alfred Hitchcock, from Keats to David Bowie, and which has well and truly seen it all.


However as much as I have grown incredibly fond of my adopted home, I also have a spirit which is forever drawn to adventure and a love for travel that can never be satisfied. So whenever I get the opportunity I love to grab a bag, jump on a flight and head out to see more of this beautiful planet. Travel is an incredible privilege and one I have increasingly prioritised over the last few years as it makes me happy beyond measure, constantly challenges any preconceptions and makes me feel truly hopeful about the world.

There are so many more adventures to be had and I look forward to sharing them with you on this site. Ultimately Just a Curl in this World aims in a funny, frank and honest way to inspire you to grab life by the horns, and explore new sights, tastes and experiences across the world as well as in your own backyard.

Here's to great adventures ahead!
