Why A Blog?

I went back and forth about whether or not to actually write a blog, trying to decide if it was cliche or not, and decided no, it is therapeutic for me and also who knows maybe my weird sense of humour might even cheer someone else up when they're having a shitty day! So whether you can relate or you just want a laugh feel free to browse and read....get to know me and maybe even get to know something about yourself along the way?!

London Calling...

So one month officially down, and a crazy month it has been! I've moved country and started a new job, moved into a beautiful apartment with a crazy Irish lady from down the road at home (whom I never previously knew) and finally realised my dream of becoming a teacher. HECTIC OR WHAT?? I truly wouldn't have it any other way though! I've not only learned so much about myself from this experience but also about the person I want to become also. So after moving country, and then house three ties once I got here  (looooong story) I'm finally settled and finding my feet and what better way to do that than by exploring??


Last weekend I went to Windsor and Holy Moses it is truly divine! From the stunning castle to the picturesque town in itself no words could do it justice! While we wandered the cobbled streets feeling envious of all who reside in Windsor, we did realise how lucky we are to have this experience in life and to be in a position where we can afford such trips on an ongoing basis. We are by no means rich - after all we are but teachers - but it is a nice sense of comfort to know that we can look forward to little days of exploration in the future! It is truly amazing also when I read e-mails from people who read my blog (I know shock horror people actually read this thing) who say I've inspired them to follow their dream and move or that they had also suffered from mental health issues and are now beginning to see an upside again and are planning adventures! Each and every single one of you are amazing by virtue of the fact that you get up each day and keep on living! That in itself is an adventure, and don't let anyone ever take that away from you!


Overall this month has been amazing and I'm genuinely excited for whats to come in the next month! Visits from friends, my graduation, trips home and more exploring of course!I'm just so genuinely grateful for this opportunity I've been given and so happy to be going through it with some of the most incredible people too! It's truly amazing how much your life can change in a short amount of time and how much you realise you suddenly want to do and achieve that never even crossed your mind prior to this!

I'm not going to lie I was hesitant to move, it was a huge decision to leave my family and friends behind and also to move outside my comfort zone - especially after the difficult year i'd had but once I got it into my head and started to get excited about what lay ahead there as no stopping me, I was moving and that was it! And Boy am I glad I did!

My one piece off advice to you guys would be to trust your instincts - do what your heart is telling you to do! More often than not its what you were meant to do all along!!
