The Past, The Imperfect Past and The Perfect Past
In Spanish there’s three tenses to describe the past – maybe there’s more, but to be honest I had such a terrible lesson today that I’m just going to speak about the three I kind of know – also this article poses absolutely no relevance to the title, it’s a metaphor. Keep reading. There’s the…

In A World Of Shelleys, BE A SHEILA
What? I hear you ask. Who is Shelley? Who is Sheila? WHY ARE YOU SPEAKING IN RIDDLES?! Well, I’ll tell you. But obviously, I’ll give you a bit of a background story first. So : My latest weekend was spent in a place called Tarifa. Now, how do I describe Tarifa? It’s really pretty, for…

1 Week In Sevilla- Anxiety Doesn’t Leave Ya
A week living in Sevilla: So far? A totally crazy, awesome experience. I’ve explained that my host family don’t speak English, which at first was really overwhelming. Like I said, I’m not good without a routine.. I know people can be hopeless when they’re in new surroundings but it’s slightly different for me.. I end…

My Last Month At Home …
A summary of my last month: Has it been the best ever not working, being at home for a month with no distractions? Nope. Are you looking forward to going away to a billion countries and not knowing what’s to come? Erm? I mean, I wouldn’t say NOPE, but I would be lying if I’ve…
