Who's down with E.A.P.?

I'm Elizabeth Anne-Louise Potter — Betty to most — and Planet Potter is where I write about travel, the world, and whatever else is knocking around in my head.

Born in East Yorkshire, made in London, with detours to most other continents along the way. I have a husband, four children, and an unhealthy weakness for puns.

This blog has been my home on the internet on and off since 2001 (yes, really). The big run of travel posts you'll find here come from a year-long round-the-world trip with my family in 2017 and 2018, taking in Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Bhutan, India, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Chile, Argentina, Peru, the Galápagos and a few other corners besides.

Newer posts and other adventures live here too. You can find me on Twitter as @bettypotter, or send a note via the contact page.
