  • I adopted a Donkey until I was about 14, his name was Daniel P and lived at Sidmouth Donkey Sanctuary.

11 Questions Lucy asked me

How do you relax?
I tend to crash out on the sofa and watch a film, or go for a walk. I love country walks when I am home, occasionally accompanied by my Nan's dog Charlie. 

Where is your favourite place and why?
It's either Bali or Taiwan, both very different but beautiful countries. Bali because of the stunning culture shown through the architecture, the panoramic views from the many cliffs, and the people are so welcoming and funny, and I've had some of the best memories there. Taiwan because it was my home for half of my childhood and it is a vibrant country full with so much beauty. 
(Bath is also up there as a favourite!)

What has been one of your most memorable experiences to date?
I have always struggles to answer this and when I properly think about it, I can't answer. I have had so many amazing memorable experiences which I will treasure for the rest of my life. From spending days with rescued elephants in Laos to staying in the heart of Yosemite National Park...it's impossible to pick just one. 

When are you most happy and why?
When I am surrounded by my family and friends. 

What is your biggest regret?
A particular relationship I made with someone at university. 

What do you love most about yourself?
The bravery and courage I have when I am travelling to just go and do anything, to make friends and to make the most out of where I am. Also, how spontaneous I can be occasionally. 

What are you most passionate about?
Travelling and Photography.

Who do you admire?
My family; I wouldn't be where I am without them and their constant support. 

What are you obsessed with right now?
Pocky! Look it up if you don't know what it is, they're so yummy!!

Why did you start blogging?
So I could write about what I love and share advice, experiences and thoughts with everyone. 

What era do you wish you were born in? 70’s? 80’s? And why?
I'm happy to have been born in the 90's. I wouldn't have met all my friends otherwise, and they are fabulous people!
