Yesterday was my last day of school, (well there’s a picnic tomorrow but no studying is involved so it doesn’t count). My exams are over and 10 months of learning French has come to an end. It certainly hasn’t been easy and there have definitely been times when I’ve thought about or really felt like … Continue reading SCHOOL’S OUT…

ABOUT TIME FOR A HOLIDAY…
If you follow me on instagram you might have seen I’m getting a little excited as I'm going on holiday this week. The last proper holiday I had was back in January 2017 when I went to Kenya…it's been a long time since I’ve had a real break and gotten out of the country. I’ve … Continue reading ABOUT TIME FOR A HOLIDAY…
END GAME…
Following on from my last post I’ve made the decision I’ll most likely be heading back to London to work after the summer. My au pair contract finishes mid-July and I also have to go back for a friend’s wedding the same weekend I finish. Now, I obviously needed to book my tickets back for … Continue reading END GAME…
WHO I’M FOLLOWING / ACCOUNTS I LOVE…
Since moving to Paris my schedule has changed dramatically. I now have a lot of ‘down time’ during the day, something which I obviously didn’t have before when working a regular job.

Spending the day in the sunshine and showing someone around made me realise just how much I’ve come to love it here and how slowly but … Continue reading THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVOURITE THINGS…
THE HALF WAY POINT…
I’m nearly half way through my time as an au pair, I can’t believe that I only have just over 5 months left here. I feel that it has both gone quickly and super slowly at times. No doubt the quickest were the first two months, everything being new and time just slips away. The … Continue reading THE HALF WAY POINT…
THE TEN YEAR CHALLENGE…SORT OF.
My take on the 10 year challenge...
SKIN DEEP..?
For today’s post I’m going a little off topic. For this week I’m pushing pause on the Paris life updates and talking about something very close to my heart. Skin. To be precise, acne. Towards the end of last year a well-known beauty blogger known as My Pale Skin, real name Em Ford posted this … Continue reading SKIN DEEP..?
