How to Be a Tourist in Your own City

If you've lived in the same place your whole life, or even for a few years, you can get too used to your hometown. But imagine if you'd just moved there, or you were visiting for the day. Wouldn't you be staring at the buildings in awe and giving extra attention to the bars and...

There’s Life After Completing Your Biggest Dream?

Did that REALLY just happen? Over 12 months later, and I'm sitting at my desk in my British bedroom, trying to make any sense of the life I just lived. I am seriously struggling to find the words to talk about how I just completed the U.K. Disney Cultural Representative Program 2018-2019. It makes me...

Sightseeing with Long-Distance Friends in Seattle

Something that draws me to a city even more than it’s culture, food, and sights, is if I have friends who live there! I love travelling up and down the U.K. to see people in their hometowns, and that’s something I’ve had the pleasure of doing in the US, too. With the Space Needle on...

What I’ve Been Upto in The Sunshine State and Beyond

6 weeks left with the Orlando sun beaming down on my freckly face. Everything seems very surreal at the moment. I’m savouring every second spent in Walt Disney World, as it’s really not long until the end of my program.  With little time left, I’ve been very, very busy! February began with a girls trip...

Exploring The Streets of San Francisco

The west coast of America is known for it's beauty, and it's desirable lifestyle. For my whole Disney program, I'd been wanting to catch a flight to the other side of the country. At the end of February, with just under 3 months left in the states, my friend Kelly and I decided that San...

A Week in Paradise

Paradise to you might be a vacation filled with sunshine, time off from work to unwind, or binging the latest Netflix craze. My week in paradise was when I was able to laugh with my boyfriend, Adam, in person again. On January 24th, I was filled with nerves waiting in the arrivals area of Orlando...

Turning 21 in The Most Wonderful Way

A 21st birthday is always seen as a big deal, and I was spoilt for choice with things I could've done in Walt Disney World to celebrate. The only thing I knew for sure was that I wanted to spend it with my irreplaceable Disney family!  Myself and five of my closest friends (Alice, Kelly,...

Flying Solo to Washington DC

My heart is heavily attached to how much pride I feel when I travel. I feel a sense of overbearing passion, and achievement for myself. It’s soul-cleansing. It gives my mind a clean slate. After a hectic holiday period, and turning 21, I whisked myself away to the capital: Washington DC. Tuesday January 8th, I...

Farewell 2018, Thank You For Everything

2018 was the most unreal, eye-opening, difficult, and magical year of my life. It’s time to say goodbye to a year of the highest of highs and lowest of lows, with me blossoming as a person throughout the whole adventure. The year began with, of course, lots of gigs. I feel like my end-of-year blog...

New York City and Reaching Halfway of My Program

I’m over halfway through my Disney Cultural Representative Program! How could one celebrate such an achievement? By boarding a plane to New York City! On November 3rd I flew from Orlando (MCO) to New York (JFK), and it was my first time EVER visiting another state in America! I was so excited and ready for...
