About Me and My Mission
You have a burning desire to travel, but you’re struggling to find the time. Come on, life is hectic. Work is busy. Organising trips is always SUCH a last-minute job.
Anyway — how could you even AFFORD to travel more than twice a year!
I’m glad you asked. This is where I come in :-)
I’m Charlotte, author of Ceejyloves and my ultimate mission is to help young female 9–5-rs travel as much as possible around their busy lives.
Why? I strongly believe that travel is a huge source of positivity for so many of us. The prospect of travelling is a form of escapism for many who work in busy, stressful jobs. And I can SO relate to this — because I used to be that person!
That’s where my travel blog comes in. Ceejyloves was born in Autumn 2019 when I was really starting to recognise the benefits of travel and its effect on my overall wellbeing.
Documenting my trips helped me cling onto my memories that little bit longer, whilst also having the potential to help others. It was also a fun and creative outlet alongside my ‘numbersy’ corporate job as a property valuer.
But… I was desperate to take it further and follow my passion to help others just like me.
In 2019, I travelled abroad 8 times around my 9–5, and by 2020 had been to 30 countries! (coincidently just before my 30th Birthday)
You may be wondering how this all works then — do I have a magic formula to help you travel more? Sadly no, but hear me out!
There are three little words (posing big issues) holding back the typical traveller from doing more of what they love. Time, money and organisation (in order of most significant first). However, I believe that there is a fourth — mindset.
By tackling these 4 avenues, it is possible to travel more around a full-time job — just like I did in 2019! I teach my students these strategies whilst providing useful tailor-made resources to help them achieve a life that is filled with more travel, and in turn, positivity.
Many more useful printables, such as 1-page Europe PDF Guides and Travel Diaries Made Simple, are in the pipeline for 2021, you’ll be pleased to know! (yay)

IF YOU’RE INTERESTED
I’m a proud Manchester girl (UK) and have lived here all my life, aside from my brief 4-year stint in bonnie Scotland, studying for my undergraduate History degree. Graduating in 2013, I took a Master’s degree in Property and trained to be a chartered surveyor before qualifying in 2017. Having spent four years working in residential property Valuation, I realised that travel was my true love and launched Ceejyloves as my full-time focus in November 2020.
Nearly 6 months later, I am loving every minute of my entrepreneurial journey and haven’t looked back!
What else? I love to watch Parks and Recreation with my partner and a hot cup of tea in bed (it’s like a massive hug). Pad Thai and Pizza are my major food weaknesses. Oh, and I’m a self-confessed Pinterest addict…
Ultimately I’m a freedom seeker who is determined to live life to the fullest. I want to spread positivity and inspire others to do what they love. Living on somebody else’s terms is one of my biggest fears.
