I’d like to talk about luck, or more specifically the luck we have that we might take for granted sometimes. I recently returned from a trip to Canberra after spending the weekend with my Australian family. The following day, my cousin’s girlfriend came to stay with us. As I was preparing the spare room for... Continue Reading →
Everywhere I look on social media at the moment, I see posts for Autumn (or fall, depending on where you’re from). The orange leaves, the steaming mugs of hot chocolate and the grey, hazy skies fill me with nostalgia. Australia’s seasons are on reverse, so it feels like everyone else in the world is cosying...

This week I received a care package from home because I had asked my mum for some jeans. Jeans shopping is the worst kind of shopping and now I have found New Look jeans I don’t want to let them go. In the parcel my mum sent, I had the BEST surprise - a collection... Continue Reading →
I know sometimes I go off on a rant about technology and social media, particularly when talking about topics like Twitter negativity and the effect of digitally altered images on self esteem, but for this week’s Happiness Is post I am going to shout about one part of technology from the rooftops - FaceTime. Coming... Continue Reading →
It seems that Sydney cannot make it’s mind up about the weather as this week started off with a day trip to the beach with Katie. Seriously, look at those blue skies... how is this winter?! I went from wearing coats and jumpers to a crop top and a floral skirt within the space of... Continue Reading →
