Today I’ve teamed up with the lovely Meg from Meg’s Magical Musings to do a post on our plans for summer vacation, as well as our dreams for summer vacation. If you don’t follow her already, do go check out her blog here! So, without further ado, I hope you enjoy this blog post!!
Due to very few entries in my summer competition, I’m extending the deadline by one week so everyone please have a think and send in your submissions! I would love to showcase your work!!
Growing up, I was never into bucket lists for multiple reasons. I’d always struggle to get through them, or I wouldn’t have anyone to try them with, but now, I think they can just be a great excuse to try new things or make fun or silly memories. Hence, this summer, I figured it would be really fun to make a summer-themed bucket list. Over the next few months, I’m going to try and get through as many of these as possible, either by myself, with my boyfriend or with friends. Plus, what’s super great about this list is that it’s lockdown friendly (so if things with covid have made summer plans difficult, hopefully, there are some things on here for you). Right… Let’s see what’s on this lockdown friendly summer bucket list.
For those of you who read my last post, you’ll know that I’m planning to do a summer-themed blogging competition over the summer holiday period. I’ve finally figured out the details (and the prizes …. oooooooohhh) so I wanted to do a proper post about it to give you all the rules, submission details, and how the competition will run.
Are you ever struggling to come up with post ideas? Well today, because I ironically couldn’t come up with anything to blog about, am sharing 101 blog post ideas, as well as some exciting news about summer guest posts and a new competition – keep reading to find out more!
There are ways to exercise and stay healthy on holiday without losing out on all of the fun, it just takes a few tips to do it all right.

So, if you would like some tips for exercising and staying healthy on holiday, then here you go. I hope you enjoy it and this kicking off a few months of mostly summer-related blog posts!

So, as I might have mentioned in previous posts, I am currently taking a gap year to try and figure out what I’d like to study at university. This summer, I was lucky enough to spend eight weeks at Stanford doing one of their programmes. While it wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows the whole time (because hey what is ? Apart from Disney world …), it was an incredible experience. I learnt so much this summer, from inside my different lectures to the experiences I had outside the classroom and today, I would like to share that experience with all of you. Now I know this isn’t like my other blog posts, as I usually stick to giving advice, but I thought it would still be fun to chat about. Life is all about learning from experience, and that is what happened to me. So, I thought perhaps you could all still get some advice through reading about my experiences. Maybe it will inspire you to try out a short course, or reflect on a learning experience you had. Or, perhaps this post will just read like a (hopefully) good diary entry where you laugh at all of my experiences. Either way, I hope that you enjoy this blog post and can get something good out of it, even if it isn’t my typical advice-filled blog.
