Motorbikes, dogs and a lot of traveling.
Okay so this is a little bit of an odd place to visit and perhaps a bit creepy, but beauty can be found any where, and there was a lot to be found at the Montparnasse Cemetery. I came across this cemetery whilst researching the area after visiting the catacombs. Well known for its abstract... Continue Reading →
(updated as I accidently uploaded whilst half asleep and didn't realise until the comments appeared this morning, whoops!) Well I can't say I'm too happy about being another year older but I did have a lovely birthday. Let's be honest, January is a crappy month to have your birthday. Just after Christmas, it's cold and... Continue Reading →
For all the book worms out there, this store is a little slice of heaven.So this blog post is a bit of a sneaky one as you're not actually meant to take photos here. I was very quick and discrete when I took mine, so please don't think of me as an annoying tourist with... Continue Reading →
200 years in the making and now 855 years old, the Notre Dame has got to be one of Paris's most famous tourist spots. We didn't make it to the top as, as you've guessed, it was way too busy, but I would recommend anyone planning a trip to go up. I went up there... Continue Reading →
Standing outside of St. Anne's Hospital center in Paris, you will find Jeannots Floor. This controversial piece was taken from the farm house of Jeannot L'Bernais, in the south of France. Before it was gifted to the hospital in 2005, it was displayed at various art exhibitions. Both intrusive and intriguing, this was something I... Continue Reading →
In the beautiful streets of Montparnasse, you would never expect that just 20 metres below, lies the final resting place for millions of Parisians. Back in the late 17th century, Paris was not always as beautiful as what it is today. In fact, it stank. The cemeteries were over full and becoming an increasing risk... Continue Reading →
For such a stressful morning, things actually ran perfectly smoothly. At 5:15am my sister and I took an Uber for our 6:00am coach. Other than four kids having a screaming match and being wedged in like a sardine, the couch journey was okay. That was until we got to London city and hit a huge... Continue Reading →
For the 36th year, Weston Super Mare underwent a massive transformation from the usual sancastles, donkey rides and ice creams to a huge endurance track. Over 1000 entries and only one winner, this was an intense race and a tiring one for those competing. At 1:30pm the engines start and so does the excitement of... Continue Reading →
For me, strawberry picking marks the end of Summer and the welcome of Autumn. When my sister and I were little, my mum would take us picking every year and we loved it. It's a really nice day out and something every one can enjoy... well unless you don't like strawberries of course. As we... Continue Reading →
For the past ten months, I have seen the Malverns from a far every day. The farm I am currently working and living on, is just over ten miles from the Malverns. In the middle of Worcestershire, Herefordshire and a small part of North Gloucestershire, this range of hills has an amazing view that stretches... Continue Reading →
Firstly, apologies I have been so slack in my posts. I have been working my behind off for the past nine months. I am currently at home in the UK and working on a farm, all day every day (no exaggeration here). It's relentlessly hard work so my blogging has been put to the side... Continue Reading →
Being from the city, the wild life of Bristol isn't very exciting. It's not that we don't have any, it's just that we don't see much of it. So being in the Australian country (or if you're Aussie, the bush) whenever I found anything, I would have to pick it up and take a photo...... Continue Reading →
Something I never envisioned myself doing before I left the UK, was working on a farm. I've always been interested and lived around that sort of thing but had never really got my hands dirty. I'm pretty much willing to give anything a try, so when the opportunity came to work on a farm, I... Continue Reading →
Living in the outback of Queensland, Australia, you quickly learn that the freezer is your best friend when it comes to food. Bulk buying and freezing is definitely the way to go when you're working every day and the nearest supermarket takes an hour and a half to get to. To be honest, at first... Continue Reading →
Whilst road tripping through the centre of Australia, we stopped for camp at the Devils Marbles. Since I decided I wanted to travel to Australia, I've always wanted to see the Marbles but I was never sure on the logistics of how to do it. I looked into doing a tour or getting a coach...
