Becoming a mom is one of the most life-changing events that you will ever experience, and there will be no area of your life that the patter of tiny feet leaves untouched. This includes everything from the foods you eat, to how much time you spend socializing with your friends, and even your fashion senseRead More
Realising Your Relationship Was A Lie
This is a post I’ve started writing a fair bit but up until now hadn’t carried on with, for a few reasons. I’d like to make it very clear that none of these reasons are the man involved, and in the end I decided my blog, my rules, right? Writing is like therapy for me,Read More
40 Before 40…An Update
A while ago, I wrote about my plan for 40 before 40; my goal to visit cities in forty different countries, before I hit 40 years old. I stalled a bit on this in 2019 (although I did visit Copenhagen, Stockholm and Porto, so added three to my list) but I’m still only at sixteenRead More
48 Hours In Porto
Portugal was another not really on my radar country (much like Sweden, until I visited Stockholm) but knowing I was booking a trip in May, after my cold February one, I wanted somewhere that would definitely be a bit warmer. I’d seen a few bloggers talk about Porto and that it was full of streetRead More
Being Honest-What’s Going On
We’ve all seen those ‘what have you achieved these last ten years’ tweets going round and, if you’d asked me a few weeks ago, I would’ve said a lot. I’ve had jobs I loved, jobs I hated but learnt a lot from, made friends and lost friends, found a love of travel and bought aRead More
2020 Goals, Planning And Looking Forward
2019 was, overall, a pretty terrible year for me, looking back. I thought it was fantastic but it turns out that wasn’t the case (more on that in next week’s post!) for now though, instead of looking back I’m looking forward, at my 2020 goals and plans. Be healthier: This will probably change as theRead More
48 Hours In Stockholm
Once I’d booked my bargain flights to Hamburg, and remembered that I’d already visited Berlin so Germany wasn’t a new country, I started looking for somewhere new to add on. Copenhagen was added because I’d always wanted to go but Stockholm, if I’m honest, wasn’t ever on my radar. The train times and prices workedRead More
Making A Comeback
I’ve been writing this post, in my head at least, for a month or more. I last properly blogged in May, had a busy couple of days, decided to have a week off, and then just stopped-and I never intended to. I’ve always referred to myself as a writer, a blogger, and I keep sayingRead More
A Big Life Update
I’ve been wondering whether to write this post for a while, as technically everything could still go wrong. But if it does, I’ll probably talk about it on here anyway and even it that happens, I’ll still be doing this, just back to the searching stage. So…I’m buying a house! I’ve been lucky in thatRead More
