Amsterdam is an easy city to fall in love with. There is so much to do as a tourist and even if the museums don’t interest you, the endless options of trendy bars and restaurants will. Getting around is a breeze with the great tram, bus and train system, and the people are very friendly and all speak English. I…
One of my best makeup discoveries of 2017 was the Cover FX Illuminating Setting Spray. It gives a noticeable glow and helps makeup stay in place. I LOVE it. But, looking at the ingredients and inside the bottle itself, all it really has is mineral water and highlight powder. While I 100% recommend the Cover FX spray, I also realised it would be…
Tulum is without a doubt the nicest place I have visited yet. Everything from the beaches and jungle to the guacamole and tequila was spectacular. Every day of my stay I questioned why I didn’t live here, and become a local “Talluminati”? It is a small paradise where life feels perfect and you can’t possibly imagine ever feeling unhappy. The locals all…
So I’ve been trying this new thing lately, smoothies for breakfast with very little ingredients. Somehow they keep me full for almost six hours! This is no exaggeration. It’s not a diet, I simply choose one of the recipes and don’t eat again until I feel hungry. If I have a smoothie at 8 am, I honestly don’t think about…
Cuba can be best described as a big culture shock! It is a beautiful, interesting, yet challenging country. I recommend reading about the history of Cuba before you set off in order to fully appreciate and understand the culture. It is a poor country in terms of material goods, yet it is culturally rich. Admittedly we were a bit nervous going on…
I wasn’t expecting my first post of 2018 to be one like this, but I’m just far too opinionated on this topic to not address it. Sorry in advance for the rant, bullying and negativity about blogging played so much on my mind the last two years so I hope posts like this one will open peoples minds a little…
I had high hopes for 2017 and it didn’t disappoint! You know it’s been a good one when you can’t choose a favourite memory because there are too many good ones. I rang in 2017 in New York with new friends that turned into best friends, I found a job in exactly what I wanted to work in with more responsibility…
New York is known for a lot of things and is seen as one of the best places in the world for its food, shopping and bar scene. What you may have overlooked is the extensive range of boutique fitness studios popping up all over the city. Over the last year I have made my way through a long bucket…
One thing I quickly learned when I moved to New York one year ago, was that visiting as a tourist is a completely different experience than living here. The list of comparisons feels endless but here are a few of the main ones that come to mind and a little advice on navigating the city. Take the subway everywhere. Locals don’t…
Money tends to be a taboo topic. People don’t like to discuss what they earn and spend but it’s something I really wanted to know when I was moving to New York. I had no idea what to expect when it came to budgeting and how much I would need. No week is the same but I decided to record…
