Questions from Rachel:

1) What is your favourite blog to read at the moment?
It’s probably Ring My Bell, it’s actually more images than writing but she has a great sense of style and posts cute pictures.

A biker jacket. Every year I have at least one that I wear with everything.

Because I wanted to document my travels and experiences so I decided to put it online to share it with other people too.

4) Do you prefer sweet or savoury food?
Savoury but then after my main I do love a good sweet!

5) Where is your favourite place to eat?
I go to a place in Manchester called Richmond Tea Rooms a lot. I go there mostly for tea and cake but when it comes to food I do love a good Pizza and I also go to Croma (an Italian chain in Manchester) quite a lot. But each time I go out for a fancy meal I like to try somewhere different.

6) What is your favourite country you have visited and why?
That’s seriously such a hard question. I don’t think I can pick just one but to name a few I’d say America because one of the times I visited, I went to Las Vegas for 21st and it was amazing! I love Cuba because it’s the most chilled out place I’ve ever been to and the people were awesome. I love Germany because both times I’ve visited have been with my boyfriend and we did so much sight seeing and had some really fun nights out. We have a lot of fun memories together there.

7) If you could go anywhere, where would you go?
I would to go anywhere I haven’t been before. I like experiencing different countries and new places. The more you explore the more you learn.

8) What is your favourite book?
The Universe Versus Alex Woods by Gavin Extence. I read this book at the start of this year and I actually felt like I missed the characters when the book had finished. Sad I know but that’s when you know you’ve really enjoyed reading a book.

9) Who do you wish you could meet?
Anyone that can help me grow creatively and broaden my knowledge. I always like to meet people who can inspire me and also people that I can inspire too.

My 21st, Vegas, need I say more. Also for that same Birthday my boyfriend took me to Munich which made it even better and we had an incredible time.
