Brontë Country: Haworth, UK

Our 8th anniversary celebrations was in Brontë Country, a town called Haworth in the UK. With the borders being closed (or horribly complicated to cross), we’ve had to rely on local holidays. Problem with that is that everyone, I mean EVERYONE has the same top 10 list of places to visit in England. On the…

Disappearance Holidays

Read all about our covid-safe, self-contained getaway (NOT A STAYCATION!) to the middle of nowhere, England!

Skelton Lake, Leeds

Exploring outdoor and green spaces in Leeds, England, during the pandemic has been a real pleasure. This latest hidden gem is called Skelton Park.

The Little Things = Self Care

It’s the little things like fresh air and love that equal self-care. Don’t forget to recharge yourself with both.

Just Covid-19 Things

If there’s one thing that’s come from this whole Coronavirus (Covid-19) “End Of The World” situation, it’s that I am suddenly inspired to blog again. Who knew that all it would take for these creative juices to get flowing was a pandemic!

Real-Time Adventures

Will we ever be able to holiday somewhere without immediately googling how to move there?

I met Adam half a year after he turned 30. This year, he turns 40 and I wanted to do something special to celebrate. After all, this is a person who followed me all over the world. He has done and continues to do whatever it takes to make us work - including working hell jobs, doing without, writing endless plant descriptions - literally, whatever it takes. Sure, he will whine about it at first. It's the British in him. But, at the end of the day, he has always put his money where his mouth is and done the work. And so, this was my gift to him - an all-expenses paid holiday to somewhere warm, historic, indulgent and so perfect for him. In return, I got to eat a gelato everyday and swim in the crystal clear waters of the Dalmatian region of Croatia. Oh, how I suffer for him! 😅

I've never seen anything quite like last night's concert. We saw @mitskileaks in the middle of winter in Cologne in one of the smallest studios. We were easily the youngest and considered weirdo stans cause we knew the lyrics to all the songs from the new album. Cut to this concert 3.5 years later and we're one of the oldest people in a crowd of super stans who knew every single lyric! It was a very 🤯🤯🤯 moment. What a night!

Northern Ireland was so unbelievably stunning and otherworldly, I immediately insisted we either move here or come back for a long road trip. No points for guessing which Adam picked 🥲

📍 Belfast, Northern Ireland - because this city deserves it's own love letter!

One of my favourite parts of coming out of the pandemic AND moving to this part of the world is being able to listen to live music again. What's given my Renaissance era that extra kick is how beautiful (and in tune) British audiences are! Here's a clip of our evening with @thenational at Belfast Botanic Gardens.

After 2+ years of a pandemic and moving 2+ countries, finally got to see @unrealaltj in their home arena. What an experience!

Can't have a rare sunny bank holiday without a trip to the beach! Beach hopping with @wonderingreverie and @joeoreynolds was so much fun! (Sorry we shamelessly crashed your birthday weekend!)

Leg 2 of our Great Norfolk Tour painstakingly curated for us by @wonderingreverie. Special mention to @joeoreynolds who went out of his way to get us that beautiful photo op with a field full of blooms!
