Hi, I’m Bex, a UK travel blogger who loves sharing the best of her home county of Hampshire and sharing top places to eat and drink.
I’m Bex, a 30 something blogger living in Hampshire with her fiancé Henry and a tiny chihuahua named Honey, who is honestly more Mariah Carey than canine!
By day I’m a Social Media Manager and outside of the 9-5, I’m either discovering great places to eat, heading out on a trip or promptly refuelling with a flat white or a cocktail!
What’s Roam Hampshire about?
Treat this blog as your own curated guide to Hampshire. I’ll help you discover the best places to visit, fill your precious free-time with fun things to do and the most epic places to eat and drink, without the faff of doing the research yourself.
And, if I can steer you to try a local independent serving some serious vibes, excellent coffee and scrumptious creations, well then I’ve succeeded!
That brings me onto how strongly I feel about supporting and sharing local independent businesses. These businesses are what make our high streets, cities, towns and villages interesting places to travel to and hang out in.

How it started…
Roam Hampshire is a Hampshire based travel and food blog but, that’s not where it began.
I started this corner of the internet in 2016 and originally wrote about marketing, using it as a career tool to develop my writing and online skills. I was even featured on Vuelio and nominated for a UK Blogger award, and although I didn’t win, it was a great experience.
In 2019 I decided to start writing full time about my travels. While it might seem like a big jump in topics, it was the perfect way for me to combine the things I love to do in my spare time. And, when you’ve had family in small business, supporting local becomes even more important.
How it’s going…
I’ve been fortunate enough to work on local campaigns for some wonderful museums, restaurants and hotels, which you’ll see peppered throughout my posts. Some examples include…
And, I’ve also worked on larger national campaigns with…
