October. Quite possibly the best month yet. It’s no secret autumn is my favourite season (as witnessed by the pumpkin takeover on my Instagram). Autumn has long been the season I most look forward to- crisper days, beautiful foliage, Halloween traditions, pumpkin everything and some seriously cozy vibes. Coming home from Seattle, I kicked off … Continue reading #Take12Trips: October
I don’t even remember it being early September- where did the month go?! I knew it’d be a busy month, but somehow, it ended up being even more hectic than planned. Early in the month, I finally made it out to Bath for a day trip and was blown away. It’s become my favourite English … Continue reading #Take12Trips: September
What. a. month. My sister visited for a week and a half in the beginning of the month, and it was truly a whirlwind trip. In 11 days, we traipsed about London, flew to Amsterdam and Dublin, and took the train to Paris. I loved showing my sister some of my favourite places, and discovering … Continue reading #Take12Trips: August
This month, I had every intention of heading to Bath for #Take12Trips. But, the Saturday we were supposed to go, it was raining and I was so exhausted from the work week that we decided to reschedule for August. Scrambling to find a wandering alternative, I decided to visit the lavender fields at Mayfield in … Continue reading #Take12Trips: July
Summer is officially in full swing, #PraiseHands. It’s my first summer in London, and I’m slowing down my out of country travel for a few weeks to see more of England and appreciate London’s warm weather and blue skies. At the beginning of the month, I headed to Hampton Court Palace for a day trip. … Continue reading #Take12Trips: June

This month, I visited a few new cities and a new continent! Asia has been on my list for quite a while, but a trip just never seemed to come to fruition- parts of the US and Europe have always been bigger priorities. After spending a week and a half in Hong Kong, Macau and Japan … Continue reading #Take12Trips: May
Springtime in London is just darling. Sunshine, stunning wysteria, and that perfect temperature weather where all you need is a light jacket. Sure, there are rainy/colder/windy days, but so far I’m impressed by London’s springtime game. This month, I took advantage of two bank holiday weekends (read: days off work) to visit Sweden, exploring Stockholm and … Continue reading #Take12Trips: April
I feel as though I was barely in London during March- this month’s activities have me questioning where the time went. I kicked off the month with a week in Austin and Marfa, Texas. I’ll always love Austin, but y’all- Marfa really took me by surprise. I wasn’t expecting to fall so hard for a west Texas … Continue reading #Take12Trips: March
I know February is a short month, but it seems like it flew by in no time. I’d originally planed on doing a day trip to Oxford in between my return from Edinburgh and a trip to the States at the end of the month, but, you know, life happens. The good news though? I … Continue reading #Take12Trips: February
