*Okay- probably not EVERY PhD student…. If you haven’t seen my previous post about thoughts PhD students have click here 1. Situation- When you accidently look at the date “how on earth have I been doing this for almost 3 years?” 2. Situation- When you see all your friends killing it at their career “ I am 1000% ready […]
I wasn’t sure if I would write a blog post about this. But sitting here in Lorne (one of my favourite places), looking out onto the ocean, and remembering all of the wonderful things that is Jake, it felt right to write. I choose to take a few days away by myself for the ‘year since’. Self-reflection for me is so important, and in truth I couldn’t face being around people this weekend.

Another insight into an amazing Airbnb, they keep getting better- although the last two were great too (check them out here and here). This beauty is locating in Strahan (Western Tasmania), and honestly comes with the most amazing view I’ve had in any of the places I have stayed. There are two of the ‘ships’ next to each other, one […]
** In collaboration** Going off to college is a big decision. Not only is it a huge change of lifestyle – you have to be sure that you can afford it and manage the workload (yes, there’s a lot of partying to be had – but sometimes you do have to knuckle down). Here are some of […]
