Every time I go out exploring in London I find somewhere new and that’s what I love about it so much. Around each corner are secret mews or a comfy seat covered with flowers, along each wall is an uncovered work of art from Banksy or a place that tourists can flock to take their […]

Exploring Little Venice, London
Hidden between Warwick Avenue and Paddington stations, nestled between high rise buildings and the most beautiful city town houses, lies Little Venice. Right on the canal network, the picturesque Little Venice has to be at the heart of the Regent’s canal walk ways. It’s the perfect relaxing point on a hot sunny day in Spring […]
‘Soft Home Touches’ Pretty Ventura Review
My ever growing ‘TO DO’ list of things I STILL want to buy for the flat almost 3 years on from moving here never seems to get any shorter. “Buy a shelving unit for the hallway, put up more pictures & prints around the flat, buy more bedding, throw out the old chipped mugs and […]
Taking Care of Myself – One Step at a Time
Self-care is something I have recently been adding into my daily lifestyle since I made the decision to become self-employed. In other words, you can’t focus on yourself unless you fully indulge in the process of transforming yourself both inside and out (mentally and physically). As well as being an avid gym goer, I have […]
Putting Me First, Saying ‘I Quit’ and Becoming Self-Employed
‘I Quit’ is something I never thought I would ever say, especially not after I went to university with all intentions and eggs in one basket to become a full-time teacher. When I left university I had no idea where my degree was going to lead down, let alone think that I would want to […]

Our Brighton Anniversary
On the 31st January 2018, Ash and I celebrated our 5 year milestone together. Having got together in 2013, the whole 5 years has been an adventure and I have tried to remember every single moment. I have blogged about our previous anniversaries, Mexican food, Barcelona…to name a few but this year we decided that […]
‘Relax’ with Emma Wilson Urban Spa
At Christmas time I was delighted to open the most amazing and thoughtful present from Ash – a spa afternoon. As someone who is on the go all the time, constantly checking my phone for updates and spending a lot of my time running from place to place, this couldn’t have come at a better […]
Be a little bit more Hygge this Christmas
One thing I have been really getting into this year is practicing mindfulness and living just that little bit more Hygge. My mum actually introduced me to Hygge at the beginning of this year back in early January when she popped out and purchased a book all about the Hygge lifestyle and living just that […]
How to Ace the Working Week
When I left university and started into the adult world in my first full time job, just a little over two years ago now, I really REALLY struggled to come to the terms with having no free time. Well, I THOUGHT I had no free time. I came from a background of part-time jobs and […]
