My home country: the United Kingdom. I’m always trying to explore more of the UK by visiting different cities, national parks and other natural places of beauty. From the bustling streets of London to the highlands of Scotland and everything in between, here you’ll find my favourite places, top tips and recommendations for travelling in the UK.
Two Weeks in Scotland

VOLUNTEERING WITH GREENPEACE AT LEEDS FESTIVAL
Hello! Festival season is coming to an end and while I’ve spent the summer scrolling through Instagram and seeing people partying it up in glitter and wellies at Leeds, Reading, Glastonbury and Burning Man, I thought I’d reflect on my first (and only) festival I attended last year: Leeds Festival!
