1 Year On: Returning ‘Home’ After A Year Abroad

Not physically write it, but for me to actually accept the fact that this big journey that I've been living (my Eurotrip Gap Year) was a year ago and is officially over. So this time 2 years ago (January … Continue reading 1 Year On: Returning ‘Home’ After A Year Abroad
The Difference Between Being Adventurous And Being Naive
People like to see themselves as being adventurous, spontaneous and risk taking... I sure do. Especially whilst travelling or trying to spice up your daily routine, you might adopt mottos like 'always say yes,' 'what have you got to lose,' or 'why not?' And whilst having these spontaneous adventures makes for some pretty memorable times, it … Continue reading The Difference Between Being Adventurous And Being Naive
