So I haven’t blogged for a few days…been busy with essays and family fun times. But now that one essay is done (a very long, boring look into the stereotypes of blaxploitation films…yes BLAXPLOITATION. That is Black Exploitation…Funzies) and the sun is a-shining, I can, for a few days at least, get back to enjoying … More Hello World
As promised, here’s a little something from my Easter weekend getaway to Belgium. Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/v/g1ujBXo-yeA&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0
With it being our last day, we thought we’d head out into Antwerp for a little explore and some light shopping, but when we got to the main shopping street (the Meir) we discovered that, because it’s Easter Monday and therefore a bank holiday, none of the shops were open! Our plans scuppered, we just … More Belgium: Day Three
Today was a proper ‘exploring’ day. We set off for Bruges at about half eleven this morning, arriving roughly an hour later to streets lined with chocolate shops, all absolutely packed with tourists. We excitedly rushed up and down the streets, looking at the different chocolates on display (even buying a few [boxes] to take … More Belgium: Day Two
It was an early rise this morning (6am to be exact) but even as I was rudely awakened by my alarm, I couldn’t help smiling. That’s how much I love to travel. No really, just the thought of being on the move and seeing somewhere new excites me enough to be able to get up … More Belgium: Day One
So as I mentioned in my last post, I’ve been filling in the next application form for the STA WTI and one of the questions I’m finding the most challenging is the one that asks ‘what is your ideal travel destination?’. I mean, come on…that’s hard! That’s like asking me what my favourite film is…impossible! … More My Ideal Destination…
Yesterday was intense, with a capital TENSE! As I checked, refreshed and checked again on the STA World Traveller Intern homepage my heart was in my mouth, a million questions running through my mind…what if I haven’t made it? What if my video wasn’t good enough? What if all this effort and panic and fun … More Top 50 baby!
Thought I’d use today’s blog to put up some of my artwork from over the years – mostly A-level and Art Foundation stuff, paintings/drawings/photos…let me know what you think. To See More visit: My Flickr page P.S. Sorry about the random messy placing of the images…it keeps going crazy!
23rd of March. D-Day. The moment of truth. Or so I thought. Imagine my dismay last night when I went online to find this: So…STA have extended the deadline for the first round for the World Traveller Intern competition and as much as that’s great for those who hadn’t gotten around to entering yet, for … More What Are You Doing To Me?
I think it’s important for everyone to have a Bucket List – a set of goals and targets for their life, big or small. Mine’s pretty extensive, and some of the things on the list may or may not be feasible. But a girl can always dream, right? 1. Ride on the Trans Siberian Railway … More The Bucket List
