Journaling the good things
I saw something on the internet (I wish I could remember where!) at the beginning of the year, which suggested taking the time each night before you go to sleep, to note down one good thing that happened that day. Initially I dismissed it as just another of those annoying new year resolutions, but the [...]
Wakey Wakey, Rise and Shine!
I was expecting to wake up to rain (and possibly snow!) this morning, instead I was greeted with this... a very lovely surprise!
Goodbye 2017 – let’s get 2018 on the road!
Happy New Year! So, I’ve been a bit lazy on the blogging front the last few weeks, what with Christmas and all. The festive season was lovely, but I was pretty tired by the time the holidays rolled around. Christmas day was spent very quietly with my family and it was lovely, I couldn’t have [...]

Taming the frizz travel style
Daily Prompt - Tame I have always had a love/hate relationship with my hair... well it's probably more like a hate/hate relationship (how many people can relate to that??)! I have thick, coarse, frizzy hair and I have struggled my whole life to tame it! In the days before straighteners... well I can't even think [...]
Fear of flying versus love of travel…which wins??
For me love of travel will usually win…..although this can mean that getting somewhere can be a little traumatic to say the least! I have a fear of flying – which is not unusual know! But when you love travel as much as I do, it can kind of get in the way. It's not [...]
