me, somewhere lovely
About
Hello, I'm Louise.
I collect fridge magnets from places abroad that I have visited. Hence the domain name. Between 2004 and March 2026, I have collected 212 magnets (190 cities/towns and 20 attractions) from 52 countries, all for pleasure. Since the lockdown in 2020, I have also included photographic reminiscence of my trips in the UK, though not always with fridge magnets!
My holiday philosophy
PAIR
P
Planning
Half the fun is in the research — routes, opening times, the café everyone recommends.
A
Anticipating
The weeks before departure, when the trip lives in your imagination.
I
Indulging
Being there: walking, looking, tasting and, of course, finding the magnet.
R
Reminiscing
Back home, sorting photographs and writing it all down — which is what this site is for.
