I TRIED THE 'SOSHAPE' DIET PLAN FOR TWO WEEKS AND HERE IS MY VERDICT.

Tuesday 28 November 2017

Me and food have a pretty rollercoastered relationship, there are days where I just crave greens and then there are days where I want to stuff my face with everything above 1000 calories. Having embarked on this lifestyle change this year I've become more interested in what I actually put in my body, and enjoy exploring the different effects different 'diet/lifestyle plans' have. I've decided to make it a monthly task to try a different thing, well for like two weeks (vegans, stay tuned). This month the lovely people at SoShape sent me a two week plan to try and test and I'm here to tell you all about it.

15 READERS REFLECT ON WHAT THEY'RE THANKFUL FOR IN LIFE.

Thursday 23 November 2017

Today is a day I wish I was American just because it means an extra day to stuff my face with food, and even though I have no American blood I thought it would be a nice thought to take the whole 'giving thanks' idea and turn it into a blog post showcasing what myself and some of you guys are thankful and grateful for in life. We often get so caught up in first world problems, materialistic things and things we don't have that we forget the things that truly matter (god am I always this cheesy). Here's what you guys had to say.

HOW TO TRAVEL THE WORLD WHEN YOU'RE NOT BALLING IN CASH.

Tuesday 21 November 2017

There are people in life who are fine with one big holiday every summer, and there are people who get hit with the travel bug every month and the only remedy is sipping Mai Tai's or climbing a mountain somewhere. The dream would be to be able to hop from place to place, so I am patiently waiting to meet my rockstar boyfriend so I can tag along on his World Tour. For us regular folk, do not despair there are still plenty of ways to make travelling the world more affordable (here's a blog post on bagging a cheap holiday) and a reality.

5 SKILLS I HAVE LEARNT AS A BLOGGER, AND IT'S NOT WRITING.

Friday 17 November 2017

It's been quite a while since I wrote a blogging related post on my blog. The last one centred around what blogging means to me (and what it doesn't) and the one before that shared with you guys what I'd learnt in 2 years of blogging. This time round I thought I'd write about something which I'm sure most bloggers can relate to, how blogging is not just one task and is not just writing something down and posting it (unless your blog is purely your diary, if it were mine I wouldn't want anyone reading it.) So without further or do, here are 5 skills that blogging has taught me.

OCTOBER FAVOURITES AND HIGHLIGHTS.

Saturday 4 November 2017

Can you believe there are only two months left of 2017? Where has the year gone! With Halloween officially past, everyone is pretty much set on Christmas (and thanksgiving) mode. For me it just means it's an excuse to eat more food because it's colder and it's ok indulge in hot drinks every night. Last month I wrote about my goals for this month and considering there was like 15 of them, I did pretty well. More on that later, here are my monthly favourites and highlights for October!

BRINGING MORE POSITIVITY INTO YOUR LIFE.

Wednesday 1 November 2017

Bringing positivity into our lives is so simple, yet so hard to do in practice for some of us. I'd like to think I'm a glass half full person at times, but there are some situations in life that it's hard to see differently. Last year I wrote a post about taking care of yourself at University, now here's one about just feeling like an all round good, happy person.
