Welcome to my travel blog

I’m Steve, and I have been running thetripgoeson since 2017. After travelling for many years, I moved to China in 2015 where I lived for over six years. 

I have visited all the places I write about and aim to bring plenty of tips to likeminded travellers.

I have visited over 50 countries to date and am currently back in the UK while I decide where the next chapter will begin.
