Nirvana: a state of "perfect quietude, freedom, & highest happiness". As any coffee lover will know, the perfect cup has the ability to bring you to this state of bliss, most commonly associated with Buddhism & Hinduism.

Island Escape

A couple of weeks ago, my friends & I headed to the island of Nantucket for a little mini-vacation. One of my friends' family had rented a house there, and kindly invited 3 of us to stay for two nights. I had only spent a tiny amount of time on Nantucket previously, so it was a great opportunity to explore the island and relax!

Dorm Crafting...Pinterest Inspired

As I start college next year, naturally I'm very excited to begin decorating my dorm room. Trawling Pinterest for ages has been invaluable in giving me endless ideas for decorations. My "Dorm Life" board is growing exponentially and I cannot wait to continue crafting for my humble abode. I've already done some painting on canvases to brighten up the walls, but Pinterest has been inspiring me even more lately.

Motivational Monday #1

This is the time of year where it's very easy to feel a bit blah.  New Year's Resolutions are fading, the weather is cold and miserable, and it seems as though spring, and refreshed happiness with it, will never arrive. 



I've been loving Pinterest for more than just fitness this winter. I love typography, inspirational (albeit a bit cheesy) quotes plastered onto a lovely bright picture, usually in watercolor. I've dug up a few of my favorites to spread some motivation t get through the next few months and to generally spread some cheer! :)

Travel Throwback...Mind the Gap

I have wanted to go to London for as long as I can remember. Being an avid Harry Potter fan, I couldn't wait to see the iconic city, with it's vivid phone booths, bustling streets, and quaint townhouses. I had a master plan that I was going to live in London when I was older.
