Realistically, I think I am writing this blog to convince myself I am ok with flying! I am ... until I'm not! This post is one I've been wanting to write for a while and keep saying I will when I post about my holidays on Instagram, then I don't get around to it ... … Continue reading Flight Anxiety and Me

New York City 2018 – Final Day
As if the almost 32,000 steps wasn't enough on the day before, our last day in New York was more walking. I honestly wouldn't do it differently! That said, maybe we'll experience the train system or a ride in a yellow cab one day but walking around such an amazing city is great ... there's … Continue reading New York City 2018 – Final Day
New York City 2018 – Day 3
Word of warning - this is a long post - you may want to make yourself a cuppa before you even start!! 😛 Having visited New York for the first time in 2017, we had a good idea of where we would want to go to show the kids what we saw last time. I … Continue reading New York City 2018 – Day 3
New York City 2018 – Day 2
This post has been a long time coming!! I posted back in December (OK, I actually didn't realise it was that long ago since I wrote about my first day in New York!) ... so if you need a recap check out that post here ... New York City, Day 1 Day 2 started extremely … Continue reading New York City 2018 – Day 2
New York City 2018 – Day 1
22nd November - a very early and massively surreal start to the day with a 4am alarm ready to get up and ready, drop our cases at the airport, head through security and into Duty Free. I am an anxious flyer without a doubt and that anxiety starts before security. There's no reason for it, … Continue reading New York City 2018 – Day 1
My Birthday Surprise!
In the months leading up to my birthday (November), my husband had been attempting to wind me up by saying he had organised something, I would be doing something on my birthday with a friend and after that we would be going away for a few days. He was super pleased with himself and kept … Continue reading My Birthday Surprise!
Iceland Day 3 – Snow and the City!
We were extremely grateful for a slightly later lay-in on day 3. Â An early flight on day 1 from the UK through to a late Northern Lights night followed by the Golden Circle tour and Blue Lagoon trip on day 2...we needed sleep! Â Day 3 started with hotel breakfast and wrapping up warm for a … Continue reading Iceland Day 3 – Snow and the City!
Iceland Day 2 – Golden Circle Tour & Blue Lagoon

Â Daylight hours in … Continue reading Iceland Day 2 – Golden Circle Tour & Blue Lagoon
Iceland Day 1 – chasing the Northern Lights
I am rubbish when it comes to surprises and keeping them a secret! Â This one though, I have to say, I was rather chuffed with myself over. Â My husband has always wanted to see the Northern Lights, so for his 40th Birthday, I booked a trip to Iceland! Â On his birthday I had wrapped … Continue reading Iceland Day 1 – chasing the Northern Lights
Sephora Haul!
The one shop that I couldn't wait to get to in New York was Sephora! Â Knowing the brands they sell are not necessarily available in the UK meant I was likely to be hunting out any Sephora store I could find and just visiting them all! Haha! I had a few items on a wishlist … Continue reading Sephora Haul!
