So, in the spirit of things, not only have I done a few updates to my About page, but I’ve also put together a… Continue reading 20 Random Facts
When I was first looking at ideas for my blog, this was one of the suggestions that kept popping up. I've attempted to write this a few times, but I struggled. What age did I write to?

My 30 Before 30 is a project I've been focusing on for a while. One of the first things I ticked off my list happened on the 20th April 2019 - I went and got my first tattoo. I had been saying I wanted one since I was about 18, but it was just one… Continue reading Getting My First Tattoo | 30 Before 30
