    I wanted to make sure I got one of these posts out before the end of the year. I’m cutting it a little fine, I know. But when I was scrolling through these photos (my last shoot with Matt of 2017) I realised just how far I have come in a mere 365 days. I really thought that 2017 had passed me by as an uneventful year, when really it was possibly the start of something very special. My journey to finding both self-confidence and self acceptance. Two things that have seen me blossom as a more well-rounded human being. Sounds corny really, doesn’t it? However, it’s so easy to look at someone’s blog or social media and think they have it all, but sometimes, deep down it isn’t always as it seems. Luckily, towards the back-end of this year I became truly happy and more accepting of myself and my fate. Which saw me have one of my most successful years to date.

    We’ve had the Danish concept of Hygge (living a simple and cosy lifestyle) and the Scandi term which also translated in to Cosiness. Well, 2018 is hitting us with it’s Scottish counterpart: Còsagach. After a weekend spent at the North Star Club in Sancton earlier in December, I was all about that Còsagach lifestyle – in fact I think I reached peak Còsagach zen if I’m completely honest. (I can’t wait to share our full stay with you soon.) You see, I’m very much in love with the simple things in life. A cosy weekend spent walking in the countryside, followed by a cup of tea next to a roaring fire whilst reading a good book is something I relish in. But sadly, life can be a little too fast paced for my liking that it’s not always possible to indulge in such fantasies.

    APPRECIATING ENGLAND: A PHOTO DIARY OF ANGLESEY

    I’ve come to love the UK. After years of travelling abroad with my husband and through my job in the travel industry, it seems that the UK has ignited a passion in my soul that I didn’t think possible. With various trips through this blog on home turf it’s given me a new love for our beautiful country. Luckily, over the course of the last few years we have travelled up and down the country with my husband’s racing, with one of our stops being in Anglesey for the last couple of years. A small island of 276 square meters, it is joined with Wales from two suspension bridges, the Menai and the Britannia. It’s a place I hadn’t even thought of travelling to Anglesey, but from watching Sophie bob across with her husband to see their family from time to time, I was glad it had become a firm fixture in the race calendar.
