Until relatively recently I was almost blind to my own mortality. Not in a reckless or immature way per se. I simply got by on a blissful “oh, I’ve got all the time in the world” attitude – one that a lot of twenty somethings are probably all too familiar with. I certainly haven’t deprived …
Elephants have been my favourite animal since I first clapped eyes on one roaming the streets of Mumbai, when I moved over to India with my family aged 8. I didn’t know at the time the suffering the poor elephant had probably been through to find itself walking the chaotic streets of such a busy …

My tales of an exciting trip around northern Thailand, including jungle treks, elephant sanctuaries, floating bungalows and more!
The London commute - there's a special place in hell for it. If I could purchase a flying carpet and get to work in a single rendition of 'A Whole New World', I 100% would. Actually, on that note...I overheard one of the IT guys at work discussing jet packs the other day...one of them …
As the nights began to draw in and the weather was becoming increasingly drab, I couldn't help but give in to the desire to escape on another adventure. My latest trip and the final break of 2017 was to the Czech capital, Prague. It may not offer the sunshine I've been longing for since the summer …
A couple of people have remarked on how I always seem to be on holiday recently - well a girl's gotta make the most of her annual leave hasn't she (even if it means I'll have nothing left to use for the rest of the year)? My latest adventure took me to Morocco, where I …
It's true what they say, sometimes the most beautiful places are right on your door step...or...well...three hours down the motorway. Last week, Jonny treated me to a weekend in Bath for my birthday and it really is such a gorgeous city, full of quintessential British charm and fascinating history. Stay-cations are definitely underestimated and I'm just …
I've always had a desire to see the world, I think this was probably inspired by a stint living in India as a child, however it wasn't really until recently that I realised quite how much I want to explore.
Vibrant, colourful, chaotic, energetic, fragrant (not always pleasant...in fact more often unpleasant), crowded, dirty, beautiful, bustling, historic...Just a handful of words I could use to describe the vast, diverse and truly unique nation that is India. Having lived in India as a child, I wasn't entering the country blind, however upon arrival I realised …
Ever since I left uni nearly 3 years ago I've had it in mind that I would love to revisit India, but for one reason or another each time I went to organise it, the timing wasn't quite right (that and I kept chickening out). I lived in Mumbai for 3 1/2 years when I …
