A Health-Related and Belated New Years Blog Resolution

I used to be a massive believer in new years resolutions and whilst I acknowledge this admirable desire to better oneself, I don’t believe in setting unrealistic (usually diet) based goals every single January. I think we should all focus on self improvement during every month of the year. That’s why my resolution for this year was just to keep endeavouring for happiness.

Anyway, that so was not the point in this post (I’m sorry, it’s quite hard to write this without sharing my view on resolutions). The point in this post was to introduce to you a new sphere of my blog.

Since being away from home, I’ve become quite interested in health and what I should be putting into my body. I’ve also devised some quick workouts that I find easy enough to fit in between my classes. I’ve found that focusing on my physical health has had a really positive aspect on my mental health and this is one of the key reasons why I want to share this lifestyle aspect with you.

My hope for this is mainly for it to be beneficial for readers – but also to inspire me. It can be hard to think of posts when you’ve pigeonholed your content and I’m hoping that by opening up my blog to this realm of my life, that I’ll be able to post more frequently and easily.

So what can you expect from my new travel and lifestyle blog? Well I’m clearly very inconsistent at the best of times, so it’s difficult to say. Most likely a coalition of mini-recipes and various ways I try to keep on top of all my healths (and believe me I do try).

Sorry it was such a quick wee one from me but I’ll be back with hummus tips soon!

So I’ve started uni and finished my first semester all in the space of a few months which have appeared to bypass me completely. Before providing a quick recap of my recent life I’d just like to thank you, lovely reader, Continue reading A Brief Summary of my First Semester

NE BLT Diaries: NYC

So at the ripe old age of 18, I made it to the Big Apple (I realise I’m incredibly young but basically everyone I know has been to New York so I felt I was missing out). New York was the drop off stop on the tour so for the next few days I was actually on my own. Continue reading NE BLT Diaries: NYC

NE BLT Diaries: Boston

Boston was a highly anticipated stop by myself and many other members of my group. Continue reading NE BLT Diaries: Boston

NE BLT Diaries: Vermont

Prior to the trip, I thought Vermont would be my least favourite stop. It pains me to say this (truly) but I was proved wrong. I was happy to leave the very *cough* earthy scented Montreal especially as this meant a visit to the original Ben and Jerry’s Factory with extra food related stops along the way.
