Top Five Comfort Films (and Why You Need Some!) | Cinema & Culture | Rosie Abigail
I’m an introvert. A big ol’ introvert in fact. The kind that feels a wave of relief wash over me when night out plans are cancelled. Look, I love hanging out with people but there’s something about staying in that is heavenly. Curling up on the sofa with the double duvet pulled from upstairs; candles…

Cornwall: the UK equivalent of Western Australian with its surf, sand, and sea (just with a lot more rain, gulls, and Mr Whippy).

If you know me, I am one bookish girl, and I think there’s no greater gift than giving someone a book you think they’ll enjoy. So with Christmas coming up and buying gifts online being the safest bet, I thought I’d make a kind of gift-giving-guide for books! I’ve (loosely) taken the five types of…

It’s been a hot minute since I last posted about my bujo on here! Well, we have been banned from doing anything so my bujo hasn’t been able to do it’s job of being a diary, that that might explain it. Still, this autumn I made a conscience effort to utilise my bullet journal once…
