My favourite thing to do is to visit new places, shop beautiful independant shops and eat good food . So our recent visit to Rye ticked all the boxes and more.
It is so inspiring to find a town with no chains and so much creativity. I absolutely loved it, art galleries, vintage shops, antiques and never knowing what you will discover in a shop is so much much more exciting.
So much inspiration in one place, I wish we had similar here, but sadly rents are too high making it so hard for independants to survive.
Do you love independents or prefer chains?
