My single handed New York adventure Pt one.

My single handed New York adventure Pt one.

So I am doing it again another single handed trip to add to the list two down

and alot more to go, so why am I actually traveling around the world on my own?

Well there are multiple reason one is that i am single and I am at that point in my life where

I don't think I need anyone, I mean of course I have my friend who are amazing and have
changed my life, but I kinda want to prove to myself that I can do anything I put my mind too,

like traveling the world, hopefully getting my own flat and of course learning to drive.

So why New York well there’s a story behind every place I wanna go and New York is no

exception to this. So when i was about 5 or 6 I saw this advert on the Tv for a trip to New York
and it said something along the lines of “If you go anywhere in the world just once you have to

go to New York” and I remember beging my Parent to take me but having a three children and

paying for a New York holiday is not cheap so they said no instead we travelled around Europe,

by the time I was 16 I had been to over 26 diffrent countries multiple Cities and had lived in 3 diffrent
countries and been to more than 10 diffrent schools. So you could say we moved around alot,

my parents would say there’s a new adventure round every corner, which is more true than I ever imaged.

So New york first time single handed, everyone that I told said on your own is that a good idea

and I said probably not but I gotta explore it gets boring staying in one place without an adventure

every now and then. I mean i should have saved up for a couple months but instead as soon as

I got my October payslip I brought my flights and a hotel for the first 2 nights and after that I don’t

know what im doingn or where Im staying, which to most seems stupid but too me its exciting.

 I mean my friend Ryan is coming to meet me so I wont be on the streets I will just be in a 24/7
mcdonalds forever. Of course i’m only kiding I did that once but I ate a lot of food bad idea guys
don’t do that unless you really have to.

So the only thing is that if you are under 21 you will struggle to find a hotel and you also can’t drink
so you have to say goodbye to liquid courage, my favourite kind of courage. So you guys will love
this just got my last g&t and yeah fails cause it went everywhere oh well I can get another one,
but it wasn’t me this time it was the guy sat next to me so yeah he felt really bad tbh bless him.

So I am gonna be in New York for 13 days, I am so excited but im gonna do a little state hoping
to philiadelphia, and New Jersey of course and possible so other places too as long as they’re
cheap because I’m in New York for black friday so shopping for sure is a must also my 12 year old
sister gave me a list of things she wants so, im gonna buy some extra luggage too also to put
christmas gifts in and everything else I will be going to buy, so I would like you guys to give me
some suggestions on where my next adventure should be don’t mind where they are, but I would
love some ideas,

Also who should I try and bring with me? Me and my friends are thinking about a group trip to
Ibzia? so what are your thoughts on that, We might start with a trip to devon or cornwall first but
when we all have enough money and can

get the time of work then we will be going on some sort of adventure.

Also do you guys have any suggestions on how I could become a fulltime freelance

travel blogger and photographer cause it would be amazing to be able to do something

like that I mean let me know what your thoughts are, I am considering studying business

at University and then possible starting my own freelance travel photography blogging company,

I am thinking about getting a vlogging camera but I’m not 100% sure yet would you like to see

that we could do some collabaratings with other travellers and vloggers/bloggers would you

enjoy that let me know in the comments down bellow.

So here are some long haul flight tips/hacks: Bring many snacks chocolate bars, crisps,

popcorn, crackers, sweets, candy, whatever you like just remember you will not be able to take

any drinks through security with you, will have to buy then after you have past security, which is

fine even if it’s just a bottle of water its good to stay hydrated no matter how long the flight is, tip 2

if you have a favourite tea that you find hard to buy ( you can only buy it at one or two shops)
bring a couple of them with you, if you ask the staff they will give you hot water and sugar so you
can have your favourite tea, also bring extra headphones and charging cables and power banks
you never know what might happen also make yourself a little first aid kit just to throw in you bag
so that if you get injured on your trip then you will be prepared, also wear comfy clothes nothing
fancy your going on a plane, your not going to a party or on a date be compfy, also no heels for
got sake why how wear comfy boots or sneakers why do people act like they’re something
specail like you are no going to get an upgrade for looking like a queen. Trust me I have tried
multiple times and if your nice and polite you are more likely to get upgraded than you are if you
look like a stuck up princess.

So I am writing this blog post sat on my first ever long haul flight, this is also gonna be the first
part of my New York set of blog posts I am going to try and write and uploud every day even if
its just a little something to keep you guys updated on what I did that day, also excpect many
pictures, im a photographer thats my job.

Top 10 travel Hacks

1. Bring Snacks, I normally bring things like dried fruit, nuts, protein Bars.

2. Bring a couple of power banks and spare chargers just incase your phone dies, and your cables might break or get lost so its great to have spares.

3. Have some emergency kit, I have a list on my blog of what you should have in your travel emergency kit.

4. bring spare clothes you never know.

5. if you're anything like me and love taking pics its a good idea to pack a spare sd card for your camara, so you don't have to delete any or rush to upload them onto your laptop.

6. don't forget period products, just have a couple in your hand luggage. 

7. if your on a long haul flight then bring some dry shampoo and some mini toliteries, just to freshen up a little.

8. bring a notebook and pen so you are able to write things down.

9. back some baby wipes/wet wipes just to stay fresh they are so handy even if your not traveling with a child they are just great, and you can wipe the aeroplane tables down before you use them.

10. have all your emergency contacts not only in your phone and wallet but in your notebook as well as inside your other bags just incase your phone stops working or gets stolen.

Sorry it's been so long

So I'm sorry I haven't been posting, it's just because I've been working a lot and also I've been super busy with my Christmas shopping omg it's so manic but it's also the best time of year it's sad that it marks the end of the year but the beginning of a new year. Which also means lots of new posts and that sort of thing.


I'm also not doing blogmas this year because I'm just to busy at this moment in time but I will be doing it next year.
So instead I'm doing instamas so you can be check that out and see what I'm upto over Christmas and starting next year im gonna try and post every day so that this time next year I can look back at everything I did that year, kinda like a reminder, like those Facebook videos and memories they make me so happy because life goes by so quickly, it seems like only yesterday that I was a 13 year old little girl and here I am 4 years later crazy how much everything has changed.!!!!!!!!!!

Finally.....

So I been away for kinda a while working out something, I now finally have a job at Primark which is great. I also joined a gym which might seem weird considering I have been blogging about healthy living and all since June so most people would assume that I already went to the gym but no that was mainly because my local gym wanted £50+ a month and then Pure gym finally came to us. (its opening on Thursday gonna be there for sure).  Puregym is also a 24 hour gym so you dont have to worry about opening and closing times which is great.

So I finally joined a gym which means that I will be blogging more about going to the gym, workout ideas, pre-workout snacks/drinks, etc


Also it would be great if you could let me know what you guys what to read or for me to blog about,  I will leave all my links below as always please feel free to chat anytime.

Cucumber Boats with Spiced Yogurt

Cucumber Boats with Spiced Yogurt
I've always thought the secret to getting kids to eat what their parents like is to remember to adapt your favorite flavors to your child's palate. If your kid isn't ready for strongly-flavored Indian curries, this could be the introduction that works: a familiar food, lightly spiced and presented in a fun way.

• Small cucumbers
• Small container of plain yogurt
• Sugar
• Salt
• Cumin

Halve cucumbers lengthwise and scoop out seeds. (A melon baller works great for this.) Mix some plain yogurt, a couple of pinches of sugar, a pinch of salt and a dash of cumin in a bowl. Spread into hollowed cucumbers.

These are perfect for after school or for a summer picnic
