I love that we get to experience all seasons in the UK, despite my complaining about being cold and the fact that I have often talked about how much I hate Autumn. I also love a theme, which new seasons allow a change in. In an effort to stop hating 25% of the year, I have been learning to embrace…

The world is tough. There is so much pressure on younger people now, and with the internet showing us what we could all be doing, the pressure is a little more high profile than it perhaps once was.
