Today is our penultimate day here in beautiful Majorca. You know the one. The day where you realise you haven’t packed enough ‘evening clothes’ and knickers. I’m also on the penultimate chapter of a book called Wellth by Jason Wachob, founder of MindBodyGreen. This chapter is called Live and amongst other chapters like Eat, Believe and Connect, the books ultimate aim is to help the…
Well this is rather nice isn’t it? Days with no schedules or commuter misery. Weekday mooches and allllllll the outdoorsyness and spontaneous dog walks. Yep, just what the doctor ordered. I’m in my element. It did get off to a slow start though if I’m honest. The first 2-3 weeks I was completely lost. I felt naughty and sort of couldn’t get going. Then once…
So i’m just over one week in to 3 months of unpaid leave from my day job. First of all; eeeeeeeeeeeek! How lucky am I to: have a husband that didn’t balk at the idea when I mooted it over New Years Eve work at a company that supports your personal needs and desires as well as their bottom line have 3 MONTHS to…
I get bored easily, so I am told. Change my mind a lot. If we were to remarry (eachother obvs) I’d have a totally different dress and theme. If (when) we finally move house to my dreamy period property I would decorate it vastly different to our current place. So New Years I literally couldn’t stand to just be at home. Sometimes home is…
After just shy of a week exploring Venice followed by Rovinj (Croatia), husband and I set about the last leg of our 2014 summer holiday adventure. And this leg was spectacular. A bit of background if I may. At the beginning of the year I wrote a life list; a list of experiences to achieve in my lifetime. Whether it be down to…
To escape the April showers of the UK, my first mini-break of 2014 saw me take a 2 hour flight to the city of Barcelona. Ok, I admit it. I had done little research or prep prior to this trip. I hadn’t packed a pocket guide. Hadn’t scoured travel blogs. Hadn’t even searched #barcelona on Instagram. Shame on me. And to add insult to injury…
Disclaimer: Please excuse any hints of smugness in this post. But the place is bloody DAZZLING and you should all be insanely jealous. Sorry. (I’m not sorry). This blog post is a little bit backdated as my husband and I stayed at Parrot Cay for a week in July 2011 as part of our honeymoon. When we think back to that week, we still get…
For our second wedding anniversary, husband and I headed off to the South of France for a 10 night break. Porquerolles came on to my radar via my obsession with travel pics on Instagram. I follow a fair few world travel accounts and on one non-eventful and probably overcast English day over a year ago, the photo of a beautiful beach popped onto my feed…
