Lucy Shrimpton is a Bristol-based freelance writer who writes about short-radius travel in the UK, France and The Netherlands, with an occasional story further afield. Off-piste childhood vacations, studying languages, and a curiosity to understand where people call ‘home’ contribute to Lucy’s interest in writing about place, and shining a light on social histories, regeneration, the arts, and walking routes. Lucy is also a proofreader, volunteer and French-to-English translator.
