ABOUT AVERAGE LIVES

Hi there, nice to have you here.

Let us introduce ourselves; we are Rachel and Nico, a British/Sardinian couple in our early 30s, who love the outdoors, road trips, and adventures. We met during our working holiday in Australia while working on a grape-picking farm (so romantic, we know) and have been exploring the world together ever since.

After three years of traveling around Australia and New Zealand, we decided to make the move to Manchester in the UK. Throughout our extensive travels, we have gained valuable knowledge about various destinations, understanding where to go and what to do in different places. We developed a passion for researching and creating the perfect itineraries for our trips.

This passion led us to start averagelives.com, a UK travel blog that focuses mainly on Scotland, England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Our blog is centered around the great outdoors, showcasing the stunning landscapes of destinations such as Yorkshire, the Lake District, and the Peak District. 

We provide detailed walking guides and highlight the best things to do in these areas, ensuring that you have a memorable experience.

In addition to our UK content, we have a large amount of content dedicated to Sardinia, as this is where Nico is from and we visit regularly. We share our love for this beautiful Mediterranean island through captivating stories, travel guides, and insider tips.

So, if you’re searching for your next adventure, planning a UK break, or simply seeking travel inspiration, we invite you to follow along, check out our Instagram, or sign up for our email list. 

Join us as we share incredible travel stories, provide detailed guides, and offer valuable tips suitable for the average person.

Please remember to only use our content as a guide, trails are constantly changing, and we want you guys to stay safe!

Thanks for being here!

Rachel and Nico
