Hi! I'm Kym!

Travel Babbles is my creative outlet where I share the many things that make me smile, along with bits and pieces about my life traveling from one place to the next with my hockey playing hubby TJ, and our tubby English Bulldog, Brutus.

I'm a constant work in progress, and so is this space. I am not a professional writer, I occasionally make grammatical errors, I blog how I speak, and therefore I usually write in run-on sentences.

I hope that Travel Babbles takes you to places that you've never been before, and that you enjoy it here as much as I do - go pour yourself a glass of wine and stay a while!
