  • Ooo another Liebster Award…

    Well, with a big thanks to Globe Trotting I have another liebster award and some more question to answer and pass on to some other blogs that I think are great fun to read 🙂 Why did you start your blog? I wanted to practice my writing skills, and a blog has more freedom than sending articles…

  • Reasons Why Yorkshire is Amazing

    If you’ve ever encountered somebody who’s from Yorkshire in Britain, you will probably realise we are incredibly, if not slightly overly, proud of our county. From our celebrities to the locals, and from its glorious countryside to the simply mention of it on TV, we adore everything that is Yorkshire. And trust me, it’s hard to…

  • Why Apathy is the Enemy, and That We Should Start Caring

    If you pick up a newspaper or, what is more likely nowadays, scan news sites on your computer or smartphone, generally you are left with a feeling that there is a higher percentage of bad news than good news. Europe is currently at ends with each other over the refugee crisis, America is facing new…

  • Road Trip Films to Watch

    So, I’ve done post about wanderlust novels and a post about wanderlust songs, so now I fancy writing a post about wanderlust films. Or road trip films to be more specific. I’m keen to get a few road trips under my belt: perhaps the full Route 66, maybe around countries such as France or Italy, or even to…

  • Student Tips 101

    So, A-Level results are out and I’m seeing social media updates about how excited people are to start uni and I feel so, so very old. Also nostalgic for that youthful, innocent flutter of excitement for what uni will be. I was going to Laaandan! I was going to freshers week! I was going to…

  • The Low-Maintenance Life

    I generally think of myself as a low-maintenance person. My daily make up routine usually consists of eyeliner, lipstick aaaaand usually that’s it. It’s useful for me to have a small makeup collection consisting mostly of the essentials, and a few bonus items usually left forgotten at the bottom of the bag. If you need to…

  • The Perks of being British

    (Or living in Britain). If you think of a British person you may think of a upper class gentleman/lady who drinks afternoon tea, maybe someone who’s a bit of a geezer, or a group of people stood queuing for no particular reason. Truth is we are all these things and so much more. We are quite…

  • Little Pick Me Ups

    Everybody has days when things are a bit poo. Could be from waking up on the wrong side of the bed, or because life never seems to ease up on stress and hardships. I compiled a list of small and mundane, but pleasant things I adore and use to recharge the batteries. They won’t change your life…

  • The Kettle, Curitiba: Getting my tea ‘fix’ in Brazil

    When thinking about Brazil, it is usually associated with images of sandy beaches, football glory, and coffee. Much of Brazil’s economy was generated from the vast quantity of coffee plantations, and it is the world’s largest producer of coffee (a third of all coffee comes from Brazil!) As a quintessentially British lass, however, I am…

  • Discovering Music at a Festival

    The wonderful thing about festivals is that you usually find yourself with a mixture of bands you love, and bands you’ve never heard of/listened to, and just by chance you watch, fall in love and listen to them repeatedly once you arrive home and have showered. These guys did just that to me: Paolo Nutini I had listened…
