April was a pretty big month for me and my boyfriend; not only did we celebrate the 3rd year of moving into our flat, we also hit two pretty big milestones - 10 years in our relationship and him turning 40! These big adult things are enough to make anyone feel old and kind of … Continue reading An anniversary, a birthday and a short trip away

December Getaway!
It's a habit, I know, and I should probably pick somewhere new* to go for a week getaway - especially since the cost of going is probably the same as leaving the country... but that didn't stop me and my boyfriend from going to Harrogate again for a winter break. I've blogged about this place … Continue reading December Getaway!
Overexerting myself
This time of year is generally the time of year I collapse with exhaustion [that's being dramatic, I basically just get really tired and want to hibernate] because I'm a workaholic. I mention this a lot and if you follow me on the social media's you're probably aware that I take on a lot of … Continue reading Overexerting myself
Into the gardens
You know I'm a sucker for Harrogate, right? I talk about it often enough, I think... Mostly because it's my dream place to live in the UK and, at some point, I'll be moving there [we're talking at least 5 years in the future but it's a goal]. Of course, I went again. We actually … Continue reading Into the gardens
Yoga mat spray with essential oils
I'll preface this post with the following; I used to film a lot [on my canon DSLR] and edit for fun but in light of my lost charger I filmed this on my phone and used an editor on my phone for the first time so... I didn't have much control over it all. It … Continue reading Yoga mat spray with essential oils
ASMR…
If you clicked on this blog post because you already knew what this was - Hi! For everyone else this weird initialism might conjure one of two thoughts. The first; this sounds familiar, or the second; What? I have to be honest; the only reason I stumbled onto this subculture [I'd call it Internet Subculture … Continue reading ASMR…
Home away from home
What? Another post about Harrogate? Yes, I can't help it so... just hang in there! Different posts are on the way, guys! I think I have mentioned a fair few times how much I love the place; it really is like a second home to me. I feel comfortable there and people really enjoyed my … Continue reading Home away from home
Valley Gardens
Harrogate, in North Yorkshire, is one of my absolute favourite places to go. Me and my boyfriend go every year, splashing out on a cool apartment to stay in for a few days, just to wander around the town. To be honest, it's very similar to where we live but it's slightly more up market … Continue reading Valley Gardens
Drumming Circle
Last night [Monday the 2nd October] I went to my very first drumming circle. It was... different. My friend recently found out there was a drumming circle in our town [which is totally up my street, figuratively and literally] which has been going for 5 years and so we decided we needed to go and … Continue reading Drumming Circle
Currently Enjoying
I've been bunkered down, recently; working on multiple projects which are keeping me B.U.S.Y, but that doesn't mean I haven't had time to enjoy little things here and there which have helped break up the monotony. Here's what I've currently been enjoying: Re-reading Harry Potter - I try to do this every year and, mostly, … Continue reading Currently Enjoying
