1.) Money can’t buy happiness… but it can’t buy unhappiness either. What you do with the money you have is down to you. 2.) Be less modest! People need to be told how amazing you are. After all, how else will they know that there’s steak for dinner if you don’t let hear it sizzle! … Continue Reading
Group holidays can be the best or the worst type of holidays to go on. A great test of your friendship is to go on holidays with said friends and if you come back, even stronger friends, then it’s safe to say that it was meant to be! Well, you don’t need to leave everything … Continue Reading
Halloween is definitely one of the most fun evenings for kids and adults alike. For us adults, not only do you get to play dress up and wear things that would probably be unacceptable on any other day of the year, you also get to indulge in as much sugar-laden goodies as you can handle … Continue Reading
Travelling the world is exciting, it’s exhilarating and always new – it gives us so many incredible experiences and opportunities and really does broaden our horizon when it comes to people, places and cultures (which can only be good). After finishing school and plodded off to university (with a lovely little part-time job in tow), I … Continue Reading
Okay, we’ve all been there, we’ve got over-ambitious plans to see and do everything when we travel. It’s kind of a given, especially if you want to explore and see as much of new cities and countries as humanly possible. That being said, there’s always that niggling critter of financing that tends to bite at … Continue Reading
** Competitions now closed** I’m a sucker for freebies! I love exploring new places but love doing this, even more, when you get it for free (or at a fraction of the price). If you’re reading this now, its probably a safe bet that you also love exploring new places too and will do so … Continue Reading
Sometimes saying NO is one of the hardest things to do and while it’s nice to be agreeable, amiable, helpful and so many other traits that come from being the “Yes-Woman/Man”, it’s sometimes really is so good and liberating (not to mention helpful for your health and sanity) to just say no. Travelling, however big … Continue Reading
House hunting in London is one of the most stressful things you can do in the UK. It is probably what whoever coined the term “Rat Race” had in mind when he/she did. It’s genuinely exhausting and unbelievably time-consuming but after moving homes quite a few times in London, I’ve become something of an old … Continue Reading
Before we get started though (here’s a heads up), you need one thing if you’re gonna do it this way – flexibility. (You’ll see why later). I’m not talking about flexibility in the sense of being able to do whatever you want, whenever you want (let’s face it, most of us have work or lifestyle schedules which … Continue Reading
It happens to the best of us. We get caught up in moments that get the best of us and make us feel an extreme of one emotion or the other. I use emotion as a vague term here as it can be both positive or negative. Positive emotions – now that’s the easy bit … Continue Reading
I’ve been meaning to write this post for a long time now but could never quite get my thoughts as eloquent as I’d have liked, so I’ve kinda just procrastinated on it for a while until I just realised, there’s probably not an eloquent way to say what I want (though I think that’s probably … Continue Reading
So, it’s that time of year when you’re bombarded with different sales that seem to be popping up from every company known to man! They’re everywhere and each company is vying for your attention (and hard-earned moola). Though with so many sales and discounts, it can get tricky and pretty frustrating to find the best … Continue Reading
Travelling is a truly great way to not only have fun, eat decadent (or really strange) food and see amazing sights but also a great opportunity to learn a lot. I know, I know… this sounds so cliche but it’s actually really true. A lot of the things you’ll have learned won’t be instant ‘lightbulb … Continue Reading
Everyone who knew who Maya Angelou was, is (and probably will be for a long time) in awe of her. This is nothing new. She went through so much and yet she came out of the other side, stronger, wiser and a beacon of light and hope for several generations. Growing up, I had always … Continue Reading
