Summer So Far | Update

Hello there!

It's almost August and where has the Summer gone!! Here in the UK, and most of Europe we have had a massive heatwave so a lot of my time has been spent out in the garden working on my sun tan and catching up with friends that I haven't seen while being away last year.

This next month I will be living in Edinburgh while I work at the Traverse Theatre over the Festival. I am already super excited about all the shows that are coming this year to this particular venue and depending on how busy I get (I will be working 6 day weeks) I plan to share as much of my 'festival festivities' with you guys.



This month I am also on a bit of a health kick. After a year away I have gained a few extra pounds that I feel now is the right time to shift so I'm eating super healthy and trying to work out as much as possible! 

I Hope you guys have been keeping busy too and thats all for now

Make The Most of Your Student Summer | Read

With a long summer stretched out ahead of you... why not go back to school and read those books you never did or always wanted to. Summer is the perfect time to improve your literary catalogue, whether it sitting outside, on your travels or inside on a rainy day - lets remember this is a British summer - For the first time you have no Uni reading... so why not tuck into something you have always wanted to but have never had the brain power for during term time! 

My picks are;

1. Greyfriars Bobby by Eleanor Atkinson
2. The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
3. The Castle by Franz Kafka
4. The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne 
5. Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert
6. A Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce
