Nearly a year ago I wrote this post about travel destinations I am super keen to visit. I have visited zero of them (whoops), but they are still my top destinations I am determined to visit in my life. However some of these are still quite fanciful, due to money/time/difficulty to make the trip. So I also have [...]

Mindful Escapisms
When life can get you down, sometimes it's a good idea to take the time to switch off from stress and worries. To reconnect with a happy state of mind and feel refreshed. Here are a few things I do when I've been sulking for too long and need to take a step back from [...]
Summer Clean
I know that every year people get all excited for a "spring clean", but personally spring has never been that for me. Whilst in education it's always been a time of much stress, exams and deadlines so there was always little time to organise and sort ones life out. Plus these past couple of years [...]
What I’ve learnt so far as a female “adult”
I don't know about you but I love reading articles written by women, for other women, on what they've learnt by being a woman. Little life lessons we should all take on board to make it through the day/week/month/year. To remind us we're doing okay, everybody's doing okay, and that we can achieve/overcome anything. And [...]
Movie Quotes about Life
Sometimes you're watching a film, and a character says something that just sticks with you for a long time after the film has finished. I find this happens when films I love give a little wisdom about life - sometimes uplifting but other times humbling. So here are a few examples, the films are also [...]
Why I don’t quite feel like an adult
I'm pretty sure no adult ever really feels like an adult, we kind of just guess and stumble our way through life, keeping secret from the kids that we have no idea what we're doing. Especially when we're having to teach/fix/organize etc something for the kid... Just last year my dad said to me how he [...]
Best Places to Wine and Dine in Burgos
Perhaps one day you will find yourself in the cold, northern Spanish city of Burgos. I'd certainly recommend a visit: its cathedral is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and its second main attraction is a fascinating Museum of Human Evolution, and its certainly pretty enough to make you want to spend the day taking hundreds of [...]
Modern Day Female Role Models
Happy International Women's Day!! What better way to celebrate it than admiring some modern day female role models who have inspired a generation, or more, and show us that being a woman can be awesome. Malala I thought I'd start with arguably the most important one from my list. I'm sure we all know [...]
British Modern Comedy TV Shows Well Worth Watching
God that's a long title. I probably should have used something wittier, especially as this is a post about British comedy. We have produced, in my opinion, some of the wittiest comedians out there, and some amazing comic actors and writers whose deliverance of lines have created some of the finest moments in comedy. [...]
New Year, New You (But seriously)
I never make New Year's Resolutions, can never be bothered. Any changes to lifestyle and well being can be made at any time of the year. Saying that though, I thought I'd share my little pearls of wisdom that I either learnt this year, or used to help me get through trying times this [...]
