I know some people hate reading travel posts months after the fact but, between you and me, I really love blogging about a trip a little while after I've returned. That space allows me to reflect on which bits of the holiday have made an impact on me and which places were most memorable. Plus, who doesn't love flicking back through old travel pics? At the end of August, James and I flew across the

A little while back, I had the pleasure of spending a weekend on a yoga retreat with my mum. I know, it's such a hippie thing to do!
