Having lived in Devon for so many years now, I feel like I often take it for granted and it is only when I stop for a second and appreciate how much loveliness I have on my doorstep that I feel grateful that I live here. This weekend was one of those times. With almost four whole days free from work (ok, two were spent at home feeling ill and sorry for ourselves and I had to work another one of them), we decided to go exploring. We feasted on pizza in Exeter and found a new park that Ava ...

My Fave Independent Coffee Shops In Exeter
As I get older, there are things that I am finding myself appreciating more and more. Things like evenings in spark a level of joy inside me that my teenage self would have sneered at but, in all honesty, there is nothing quite like putting on my PJs and slippers as I settle down in front of the TV for an evening of American comedy reruns. I have also come to realise the awesomeness of garden centres - and the huge candle sections within them. And, most notably, I have become a bit of a coffee ...
Berlin On A Budget: My Tips And Tricks*
I am going to let you guys in on a little secret. It is a bit cheeky and you have to promise not to tell my husband, ok? Here goes: I had a holiday romance and I think I may be in love...with Berlin! Gotcha! Yes, we went back to Berlin once again for another trip but, this time, we were on a slightly tighter budget than last time. But I think we made it work? We had such an amazing time and returning to Berlin outside of Christmastime let me see more of the city itself and experience ...
Everything We Ate In Berlin
Yknow how most people draw up travel itineraries for a trip? Well, I do that but for food. I love searching the location feature on Instagram for the best snacks, prettiest restaurants, and most unusual local delicacies and then casually dropping them into conversation when my husband asks where we should eat like I haven't already planned my exact order in my head. For Berlin, I only had a couple of things in mind. I knew I wanted to get a vegan donut of dreams from Brammibal's Donuts and I ...
Berlin Travel Guide
If you follow me on social media, you'd be hard pushed to have missed the fact that we recently went to Berlin. I mean, it is pretty much all I have been speaking about for the past week - but for good reason! Our trip to the German capital was probably one of my favourite parts of 2018 and I would encourage anyone I meet to consider taking a trip there too - especially if you can make it around Christmastime. It was fun, festive, and filled with food. What more can you ask for? What to ...
Cardiff Travel Guide
Cardiff is a place that means a lot to us. It is the place where I went to uni, where Isaac and I had our first date, where we got married, where I graduated, and where we found out we were pregnant with Ava. This city encapsulates so many amazing memories and a beautiful chapter in our lives. And it is also a place that I know inside and out so I thought I would play honorary local and give you the low down on everything from where you can get the best cakes to where you can shop til you ...
