May was an incredibly busy month for me. I uploaded my dissertation, so it’s official that I finished my studies. I have no idea when I’ll get the results, but that’s that. This month we also had the Coronation and Eurovision! On top of that, we visited three stately homes, taking advantage of our membership […]
We’ve been to Harewood House and spent half of day there. In this time we could only do one of the tours of the grounds and see the house. It’s so big and so many things to see that we need to go back at least once to see the rest. Because there were so […]
Rode Hall is a family home, being owned by the Wilbraham family since 1669. The house is open for guided tours on limited days and also have special events. We’ve been to see it earlier this month and to see the bluebells. The walk was available for only one week, but on the day we […]
UPDATE!! 11 May 2024! Benji has decided to include both eggs and chicken in his new savoury buns. This is not a vegan business any more, which of course is relevant if, like me, you go out of your way to support them. As today, from my point of view they lost their USP. They […]
Dorfold Hall is a stunning family home in Cheshire. They host weddings and corporate events to raise funds for the very expensive upkeep of the building. They also offer guided tours, limited in number and days, but so worth travelling to see them. Our guide was wonderful and I loved the blending of the history […]
Eurovision is hosted in Liverpool, much to my excitement. I took so many pictures that I had to collage many of them. There were celebrations for over a week in Liverpool and we’ve been a few times to see the different artwork pieces or celebrations of Ukraine. There are so many blue&yellow flags in shops […]
Now I can say I finished my second university. Soon I will have a second BA degree, as my journey at KCL ended with the 2nd term and the final one. I shared my experience for all the terms, from year 2 – term 1 and term 2, and the year 3 – term 1. […]
Last year we’ve been for the Queen’s Jubilee and the Funeral, so we couldn’t miss the Coronation. While initially we planned to go there the day before, on Friday we went to the Eurovision village to see Kalush Orchestra, so we couldn’t leave earlier. We got up at 3 and at 3.30 we were on […]
I’ve been to see Elizabeth Gaskell’s House last month and it is great. The strange part is that I read about her books, but I’m yet to read one. We wanted to spend a day out, so this was the perfect spot for us, far enough from home to make a “trip”, but close enough […]
Capesthorne dates back to 1719 and it is a beautiful house that can be visited free-flow. They have a cafe, with coffee, but no vegan options. Also, the park and gardens are beautiful to see. We visited on a rather wet day, so we didn’t walk in the park, but only in the gardens. The […]
This blog is my personal diary, I will only write about brands and products I’ve used personally and are inline with my personal beliefs (e.g. no real fur). I am happy to receive PR samples or services, I also receive gifts at blogging events and sometimes I will blog about them.
I will disclose by mentioning in the post and/or by marking them with an asterisk (*) or c/o.
