I realise I've been blogging about nothing but my California trip recently, whilst everyone else is posting about Christmas trees and gift guides and hot chocolate recipes, here I am bombarding you with sunny holiday posts. We're not even half way through my photo collection yet, so bear with me! After a few days in LA, James and I drove out to Joshua Tree to camp for the night. For the next three

I'm not good with cold weather, and Yorkshire is never consistently sunny, even in August. My two best gal pals Amy and Chelsea went to Primavera last year, and promised me that I would love it.
