Well after my essay on my first 6 months here, I started to ponder the things I love and the things I hate about living in the US (maybe Colorado specifically) thus far.  None of these have had to be thought up, they’ve been on my mind since I have been here so this should be pr

In Swansea University (my 1 year of it before transferring to the University of East Anglia) I vividly remember printing out photos of houses in the United States and pinning them above my PC for motivation.  Then, I didn’t really understand the differences between States, I jus

I am looking forward to a packed 2020. I expect it to be a very busy one but a great one. I want to keep my goals pretty simple for next year to keep them more focussed. I hope everybody has an epic 2020 and make stuff happen time is whizzing by! Running Goals Complete Manchester Mara

My first full year back in Norwich, after making the move in May 2018. I am usually on here at the end of a year saying how epic a year was but at the end of 2018 looking back it ended well but certainly one of the most challenging ones. I was looking forward to a full year back in th

Well another 12 months is coming to a close so I like to look back on the last 12 months to reflect on whether it has been a good year or not and to set myself some goals for the new one coming up. In my looking ahead to 2017 I listed quite a few things I wanted to achieve so it seems

After a decent flight from Tampa to Pittsburgh (empty so row per person), I landed and had a fairly short journey to my hotel which was sandwiched between the Baseball and American Football stadiums. I had arrived pretty late and it was starting to snow, so I didn’t venture too

After a great few days in South Beach I headed to Fort Lauderdale where the weather was equally great.  After checking in I wandered along the coast and then headed into the centre for Game 1 Vs the Florida Panthers. It was pretty odd going in Hockey Jersey in 30 degree heat but in an

It feels like I have spent 0 time in Birmingham or My Apartment over the last couple of months, and packing for the final week of work to go straight to airport was a pain but it’s a lovely way to kick off my December/January time off after this ludicrously short contract. The c
