Trentham Gardens is somewhere I haven’t been in years. The last time I visited was when I was working with BlogOn, exploring Stoke-on-Trent and showcasing what the area has to offer. This time was a little different. My mum has been staying with us for the week, and we fancied a proper girls day out, and my mum has never been, plus we needed somewhere to go as I was working on a project too, so it was a win-win :)
If you are anything like me having a few plans sorted for the Easter holidays just makes everything run a little smoother. Two whole weeks is a long time to fill, and although I am all for a chilled movie afternoon on the sofa or a bit of a crafting session at the kitchen table, it’s nice to get out and about too, especially when it doesn’t cost a fortune.
The sun is shining today, and it really does feel like spring is finally on its way. I love being outside – it’s so grounding, and being outdoors in the sunshine always puts such a smile on my face. It completely changes my mood, I've even picked up some ice today, iced coffees here I come! :)
The sun has been coming out now and again over the past few weeks, and I keep catching myself looking out at the garden thinking, where do I even start?. It’s definitely been neglected since last summer. The pool is still up, yes, with the muckiest water in it and I know I should probably sort it, but honestly, the weather hasn’t exactly been inviting me outside, winter has been SO long!.
The last few months with work have been quite manic, but in the best possible way. I absolutely love growing my business, and I’m always looking for ways to improve myself, learn new things, and become better at what I do.
In the Alps, you live inside a landscape shaped by centuries of mountain life. When you choose the right village, you wake to Matterhorn silhouettes, share tables with locals who have farmed the same slopes for generations, and step straight from cobbled lanes to pristine pistes.
Buying your first home is exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming. A clear checklist helps first-time buyers stay organised and feel confident throughout the process.
