Almost a year has passed since my last blog post, and it’s been far longer since I actually wrote about travel. I’d love to write something cheesy about being swept up in ‘the adventure of life’ but I don’t think I would forgive myself. Lots of things have changed since leaving university; a new job(s),…

Graduating university with a first class Journalism degree!
I have been very absent from writing about anything outside of my university work because, often overwhelming and disheartening, my final year of university was also insanely intense but incredible. From being News Editor of our student newspaper, The River, to making my own version of The National Geographic, this last year has pushed me…
Cambridge: A punting adventure to remember
Cambridge; home to the world’s most prestigious universities, incredible architecture and for a few mere hours, it was home to us Londoners stuck on a punting boat rowing round and round in circles to the amusement of far too many riverside onlookers.

Skipping and muttering “Portobello Road” under my…

This is more of an appreciation for what an adventure my university project took me on last year. Starting espresso magazine took over my life, but ultimately started my love for new experiences and adventures, either…
Newquay: A Getaway to Fistral Beach
Travelling doesn’t always have to be huge adventures that take you away for months at a time – one thing I have learnt is that you don’t need to see the entire world in one go. Sometimes a weekend is all you need. At the end of March this year, my family and I took…
Northern Ireland: Belfast to Derry
After a 12 hour travel day, my friends and I landed in Belfast for St Patrick’s Day. This year it took place on Friday 17th March and considering we had just handed in one of our huge final projects we decided this would be the perfect way to celebrate. Visiting Ireland for St Patrick’s Day…
