Journeys. Reflection. Growth.
Venice’s beauty, in my opinion, lies in its ability to resist the strong force of modernity and technological advancement. The numerous selfie-stick sellers aside, when you walk through the maze of floating alleyways, it’s as if you have been transported back in time. The absence of glass skyscrapers and a constant drone of traffic is,... Continue Reading →
In the summer – which right now feels like a lifetime ago – I was lucky enough to visit the beautiful country that is Croatia. Myself, my boyfriend and two of our closest friends headed there for 10 days, and we certainly made the most of our trip. In this post, I'm going to share... Continue Reading →
Three years sounds like a long time, doesn't it? However, looking back now, the three years I spent at university were the quickest three years of my life. Honestly, they flew by. For those of you who started uni last year, you are already over halfway through your first year. A year which for me,... Continue Reading →
So January is finally over, the snow is here, and if you're like the old me, the gym motivation from the start of the year is slowly slipping away. In fact, it wasn't until March last year when I actually made the decision to join a gym and try and establish some sort of routine.... Continue Reading →
This Christmas period was my first in a long, long time where I haven’t had to do any revision, or stress about a looming deadline.

Part Two This post follows on from my previous one on our girls trip to New York. Let's be honest, would it really have been a girls trip without shopping and visiting great places to eat and drink? I think not. We spent a lot of time doing each of these things, so I thought... Continue Reading →

It was a proper girl’s trip; I went with my mum, my friend who I met at nursery, Milly, (@ameliagilmoreblog), and... Continue Reading →
About this time three years ago, a rumour was circulating uni: If you didn’t start looking for accommodation for the following year now, all the best places would go. Suddenly, everyone started viewing and then securing their houses. I remember thinking ‘what? Already?’ I felt as though I had only just arrived. How was I... Continue Reading →
I recently took a trip to the cinema to watch the new(ish) Disney film Christopher Robin. Despite Winnie the Pooh’s association with childhood, I feel that there are a few things we could all learn from this lovable little yellow bear. I want to share with you six of my favourite quotations from the film;... Continue Reading →
The other day I bumped into an old friend who I hadn’t seen since school. Seeing me, she looked surprised and said ‘you’re here. I thought you were off exploring everywhere’. The only thing that would have given her this impression were my social media accounts. I rarely post on Facebook; I change my profile... Continue Reading →
