My Inspiration is about good food, memorable places, trying new things and making the most of whatever stage of life you happen to be in.

I started My Inspiration in 2012 as a place to share the things that interested and inspired me, from recipes and travel to photography, fitness and everyday adventures.

Over the years it has grown into a collection of real experiences, honest recommendations and ideas gathered from places I have actually visited, recipes I have actually cooked and things I have genuinely tried.

I’m Yvonne Kerrigan, based in North East England. I love plant-based food, travel, hiking, running, photography and discovering somewhere new, particularly if there is a good view or a decent cup of coffee involved.

You’ll find everything from comforting plant-based recipes and independent coffee shops to Italian villages, mountain walks, city breaks and the occasional reflection on life itself.

My aim is simple: to create useful, enjoyable content that might inspire you to cook something different, visit somewhere new, get outdoors, learn something or simply look at life from a slightly different angle.

Eat well. Go somewhere. Try something new.

Thanks for stopping by.
