  • The Fushimi Inari Shrine is an amazing place in Kyoto with something in the realms of 10,000 torii gates leading up a mountain side, and you can walk through them like a tunnel. Fun fact: every single red gate here has been donated by a Japanese business ✌🏻

  • In my element, taking photos of bullet trains 🙈 🚅 
We had the privilege of travelling on the Shinkansen around Japan on our trip, and I don’t think I could ever tire of seeing these amazing creations whoosh in and out of the station 🤓

  • Happy new year from me and my silly (yet fantastic but shh - don’t tell him) fiancé Alec 😊 We rung in the new year dressed as characters from the 1900s (hence the lovely filter 😆) at a murder mystery dinner party, which was super fun.

I spent the Christmas season stuffing my face and not doing any exercise whatsoever, so need to jump swiftly back on that ‘eating-better-and-actually-moving’ train sharpish, but I don’t regret anything; I deserved the break.  Tomorrow is back to work for me which I’m not very excited about but I know things will click back quickly... plus it’s a 2 day week - yas!

2018 for me was overall a good year - we had two amazing holidays to Crete and Japan, I hung out with great friends, and we did a lot of work to our house, so it’s really feeling like a home now. It was marred by things like not having much money (mostly due to a bad letting agent situation at the beginning of the year), a very sad death right at the end of the year, and to be quite honest my self confidence took a total nosedive throughout the course of the year. There isn’t an outside reason for this I don’t think, I am just too hard on myself and seem to excel at putting myself down, so this is something I need to work on for sure.

I hope 2019 is a good one, for all of us 😊
