my questions from Lena Dee, answered! 

what inspired you to create a blog? 

I kinda inspired myself I suppose (in a non-ilovemyself-way). As many people know, I had to undergo emergency surgery early 2017 and have since spent my time recovering. During this time, I realised that life and death is so so precious, and that I wanted to find a new way of documenting my life and adventures - no matter how big or small. And what better way than to blog about it? 

any tips for bloggers out there who may need some inspiration? 

I think that if a blogger is a lil bit stuck on the inspiration side of things (it happens!) then i would recommend taking a blogger-time-out. I can guarantee you that during this time, you will 1- miss your blog, and 2- find so many things to tell the world about! 

what gets your day off to a good start? 

Sounds cliché, but a good breakfast! If I'm hungry, I'm moody! 

Favourite quote/mantra you tell yourself to keep pushing? 

"Everything happens for a reason" 

what are you passionate about besides your wonderful blog?

I love going to the gym, preparing delicious food, and I've always loved baking! 

what do you do when you need to clear your mind?

I normally turn my phone off for the evening/night, and take my dogs for a nice walk. 

fave food/drink that puts you in a good mood?

Hmmm.... either chocolate or pizza, but i think that's the same as everyone, right? 

top 4 places to travel?

THIS IS A TRICKY ONE!! I love Spain, Greece, Israel, and Turkey! Israel is one of the most beautiful places I've been to, and the people are so lovely! 

what are you most excited for in 2018?

RECOVERING!! Other than that, i'm looking forward to being healthier than ever, and seeing new places. 

any persons inspire you that you'd love to meet?

Okay so other than Hilary Duff who is my all-time hero, i would LOVE to meet April, from Travelling Wanderer. 

fave place to visit at home?

Devon - it's like a second home to me!
