We are living in quite a frightening and uncertain time and it’s only normal for anxieties to feel heightened. It seemed like our world changed dramatically overnight. Coronavirus changed the way we live at an unimaginable rate and currently I can’t see an end in sight. So I wanted to share some things that have helped me calm down when I have been excessively worrying and overthinking.

Restaurant Review: Oodles, Tooting
I’ve been out exploring some more food places in South London! Oodles is an Indo-Chinese casual dining chain. Their branch in Tooting is quite new and this was the first time I’d had the opportunity to experience their food. I was so excited to try this place out!
A Trip to Thorpe Park in a Pandemic
With all the cancelled fun this year, it was nice to get out for the day. Coronavirus has changed the way theme parks operate, but it is still heaps of fun and Merlin have done their best to keep their guests safe!
North East Adventures: A Day Out In Durham
Durham is without a doubt one of the most beautiful places in North East England. It’s most famous for its cathedral and university, but the town itself is rich in history, culture and stunning landscapes. There’s nothing better than a stroll through Durham’s town centre on a sunny day.
Restaurant Review: Meat & Shake – Tooting
Monday was the last day of the ‘Eat Out To Help Out’ scheme, so me and my flatmate decided we would make the most of it and treat ourselves to some lunch. We wanted to use the offer of a half price meal to try somewhere new. For a while now we’d been wanting to go to ‘Meat and Shake’ in Tooting Bec and it was the perfect opportunity to go. I’m a big foodie and love trying new places to eat out, so thought it would be fun to give my opinions on this southern barbecue joint in South London. This is me pretending to be a food critic.

Me and my friends went mad for Zoom quizzes during lockdown. We were obviously losing our minds and craved some frequent social contact outside of our house bubbles. I think we pretty much mastered the art of the Zoom Quiz, so I wanted to share some tips.
North East Adventures: Penshaw Monument
The other week I visited my family back home for the first time since lockdown. The air feels so much fresher than in London. It was really nice to be home for a little while. So I thought I might write a little post about a local landmark we’re quite proud of.
The Folklore book tag
You may have guessed from my recent post, but I have been thoroughly enjoying Taylor Swift’s new album, folklore. I’m not a book blogger, so I’m very excited that I have been tagged in this and will give it my best shot. Thank you to ComfortReadsBookBlog for the tag!
