My First Ever Solo Trip To London
At the start of the year, I took my first ever solo trip to London. I’ve had day trips to London by myself in the past but never actually stayed there on my own. I thought I would share the whole experience because it was something totally new to me. In the end, I really…

This is something I meant to post weeks and weeks ago so I apologise for talking about Christmas when it’s the last thing anyone want’s to think about right now. I apologise for writing about this post so close to the Cosmonaut exhibition closing. You still have 6 weeks if you want to see it (and…
