If you’ve been here for a while, you know I LOVE reading memoirs by people who have moved to new countries and are puzzling their way through daily lives in new cultures.

In honour of that love, I’ve put together a list of 15 fascinating expat memoirs over at my other blog, The Ambling Adventurer.  Enjoy!  And if you have any suggestions for further reading, do let me know.  A reading list can never be too long!

The Ambling Adventurer

Posted in Uncategorized on May 2, 2017| 8 Comments »

After seven excellent years of The Captive Reader, I’ve decided to follow my passion for travel and start a new and (to me) exciting project.

The Ambling Adventurer is my new travel blog, focused on slow travel adventures and tips for travellers of all ages and activity levels.  I know lots of you have enjoyed my travel posts here over the years.  Now I finally have somewhere that will be all travel all the time!

Come follow along with my adventures!  You can visit the blog or find me on Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest and (though I’m still finding my legs here) Facebook.

And don’t worry – The Captive Reader isn’t going anywhere.  My posts may be less frequent (though they’ve been that way for a while now) but the site will remain active for you to comb through the archives.
