Today’s blog post is full of inspiration, updates, and memories. Just an opportunity to sit down with you guys and chat before I board my plane to Sweden tonight. Fear of flying leads to procrastination and diversions.
Time to reminisce, are we ready? Continue Reading
This past Saturday I spent my afternoon at the Royal Ascot Races!
It was AMAZEBALLS. To say the least.
My second day in Bath consisted of many activities and long train, coach, and tube rides home. Check back at the end of this post to hear about the tragic journey it took to get home to London.
But for now, here is my second installment about my weekend spent in Bath! Continue Reading
This weekend I had the pleasure of visiting family in Bath. I arrived Friday evening and spent 48 exploring the village. Unfortunately, while on my visit, my phone completely shut down and died. RIP iPhone 5c. Luckily, my new phone is ready to be picked up back here in London!
But who needs a phone when you have an entire weekend of exploring? I am going to share my 48 hours in Bath to give a quick summary and {as usual} a photo overload. Here is Day 1! Continue Reading
My favorite bridge is not Tower Bridge. It is the Golden Gate Bridge. Because it represents home and is incredible. But Tower Bridge is my second favorite bridge. So I paid it a visit this weekend. Continue Reading
Back in London for a weekend and sick as a dog. I have been congested, feeling miserable and therefore hidden in my room since Thursday evening. But I cannot let a weekend in London slip away so easily, seeing as I only have a few of them left. So yesterday I slapped some make up on and decided to terrify myself on the London Eye. Way to go Rachel. Continue Reading
It’s June!
Wtf. I honestly cannot believe it. I can remember the day I arrived here in London four months ago. I leave next month people. Almost all of June I have accounted for. A trip to Bath, seeing Coldplay live, attending the Ascot Races, and celebrating Midsummer in Sweden. All of which I am anticipating at the highest level. But I also have knowledge of how quickly these moments will pass to become memories. Of which I am not prepared. Continue Reading
This past weekend, I spent another weekend in England’s second city. This time to visit a different pair of my mom’s friends from her study abroad experience in England. Poddy and Carmel were incredible hosts providing me with a weekend full of all things English. Continue Reading
We all have guilty pleasures. They are rarely shared… as this would completely contradict the guilty portion of a guilty pleasure, but this is my blog and I don’t mind contradiction. So here I am, sharing my greatest guilty pleasures.
There is a lot of purple in this post, FYI. Not purposefully. But I don’t hate it.
Also not a guilty pleasure. Continue Reading
I love Harry Potter.
There aren’t many things that I believe in, in which I am not willing accept other opinions about. With the exception of Harry Potter. I was one of those kids that would spend hours laying awake wondering if maybe, just maybe, all of this magic stuff was true. And maybe,
just maybe,
my letter from Hogwarts would arrive at my door. Or through my window via owl.
Well, my letter never arrived. Continue Reading
