About Me
Welcome to No Need For Postcards!
WHO AM I?
I am Edward a born and bred Londoner, who has always kept creative, learning and travel, at the heart of my passions.
Travelling has been a joy of mine since I was young when I made frequent visits to Brighton with my parents. Whether it be by coach, train, or plane, I enjoyed the journey as much as the destination itself. As an adult, I have become a solo traveller visiting 17 countries and I am passionate to talk about it.
About No Need For Postcards
WHAT IS NO NEED FOR POSTCARDS?
No Need For Postcards is a platform to share content about solo travel. I write about my solo travel adventures and discuss the subject with guests on my podcast to inform others who wish to travel solo.
How it started
No Need For Postcards originally started as a blog in 2016. I became focused on writing about the places I travelled to but after a few years I stopped writing until the spring of 2024. At the same time, I was considering what to do with No Need For Postcards I started listening to podcasts untill it dawned on me – why don’t I make a podcast about solo travel. I enjoy one-to-one conversations and solo travel, so a podcast is the perfect medium. No Need For Postcards had a new lease of life.
About Solo travel
WHY TALK ABOUT SOLO TRAVEL?
Solo travel is a huge part of my life. It is almost exclusively the way I travel. At a period of my life where my friends have partners or started a family, the opportunity to travel with others has significantly reduced. So solo travelling became the obvious way for me to see world. Once I did the first trip I have never looked back.
By travelling solo, I have strengthened my independence to live my life the way I want to, ignoring the scrutiny. It has allowed time for me to understand better, which is invaluable because the best relationship you can have is the one with yourself.
Hope you enjoy my content about solo travel. If you would like to share your travel stories then get in touch with me through instagram @noneedforpostcards or email noneedforpostcards@gmail.com.
