Catch up with ongoings from Lizzie's Week!
I have often thought before how some people find the time to read so many books, wondering when they fit in having a life besides working and sleeping! Some of the people I follow online seem to churn out a book a day(that would be a dream…)! Of course, this doesn’t just have to be limited to [...]
it seems i have been trying to find a word to summarise my actions over this past year, especially since embarking on my very own YEAR OF YES and I guess my journey so far. that word, is GRIT. Over the past 18 months, my reading list has expanded from romance to self-help books. The [...]

BOOKS - YEAR OF YES a little reflection on why i'm continuing my YEAR OF YES in 2021... i can't believe i had never heard of Shonda Rhimes, Executive Producer for Grey's Anatomy, Scandal and How to Get Away With Murder, and owner of Shondaland. so you may be wondering; how did I come across [...]
This may be somewhat delayed, however I thought it would be good to suggest some nearby places to visit during this strange time (or all year round), as well as use it as an excuse to post some lovely pictures! At the start of the year I managed to visit Virginia Water in Northern Surrey, [...]
