Hello, I am Explorette, an Urban Explorer Based in the North West of England. This Website is dedicated to Urban Exploration and my photographs documenting the places i have visited.
I hope you enjoy my work
DISCLAIMER: Urban Exploration can be very dangerous and taking unecessary risks is stupid and unacceptable. I always use the proper safety equipment needed on each explore. Please do not go to any of these places unless you are aware of the risks. I will not be held responisble for anyone who decides to copy my actions in entering these places.

Welcome to my website. It is here to document my adventures into the world of the unseen, to preseve the beauty of the derelict and forgotten and for you to see what i see.
I hope you enjoy this site, you may or may not know the places i have visited, you may be another explorer or just a browser on the internet that came across my site by accident..... you are all welcome and i hope you like what you see here.

Hi, Im back. I took a break from exploring due to people wanting fame and fortune from this and didnt like what i was seeing.
But yay, I am back - skint- but back and trying to get back into it as much as possible. Hoping to win the lottery soon and go see Chernobyl at some point before its too unsafe for tours.
Just one update so far, and its a bit naff due to me not getting there in time before the demolishers got their mitts on it.

As pointed out by someone who has emailed me, I understand that some of these places hold horrible memories for people. I feel for people who were wrongly placed in asylums for the wrong reasons and my heart goes out to them, and i hope that your lives are well.

Just a reminder....Please do not attempt to steal my images, because you will more than likely be found out and i will take legal action against you, as you are breaching copyright. ALL images are taken and owned by me Explorette. And with that... Happy site seeing :)

Have updated the site with a few explores from germany and belgium. I still have a few more to put up but just looking through all the photos and trying to pick some decent ones! haha
Oh yes and will soon have history of these places up too. :)

Currently in Germany doing some exploring, found some great places. Pics will be up as soon as possible :)

DONATION BUTTON NOW WORKING!! Wooooo took alot of effort but its up and running now. Had my first donation too. YAY. Thank you very much :)
25/02/08
I have added a "Donate" button to the site, to help with the cost of exploring. It takes a lot of travelling, petrol stop munchies, first aid stuff and camera bits and bobs to keep exploring, so if you can spare some money for the cause, please feel free to donate. It is Paypal so its a safe and secure way to do it. (At the moment it isnt working, but give it a week and it should be up and working.)

Would like to say thank you for all of your comments and emails about my site. I am sorry i haven't replied to any of you but i have been very busy and keep forgetting to set up a seperate email account, as fotopic do not supply me with an email for my freebie site.
Keep checking in as some cool stuff is being planned :)

Got back from Paris, WOW!!!!! the cattas are ace! was a real experience and i loved every minute of it. Really hard work with crawls and tight holes to squeeze through (but i love all the hard work, it makes it more worthwhile). Saw loads of stuff and i especially liked carrefour de morts (bones room) So strange crawling over skull caps and leg bones. A very surreal place and there will probably be another report from here in the future!!
10/6/07
Well what can i say except WOW! Belgium was ace, and there was so much to see. Well worth it! Ill just let the pictures show what it is like there!
Sorry it took so long getting them up but there were so many it was hard to choose
28/5/2007
Well, I am bored sh#tless, not been exploring for two whole weeks and it is driving me mental!! Oh well, I have Belgium to look forward to!! So I will probably be all explored out after 5 days of power exploring.
Whoot whoot, bring it on!! |
