What I Wore, Ate And Did In York (And Why I've Been Absent)

What I Wore, Ate And Did In York

Well hello there! It's been a while, and things are looking a little bit different around here! As you'll probably know if you follow me on Instagram, I've had a couple of breaks away recently. One was to sunny Cyprus, the other to beautiful York. I vlogged the York trip, and shared it on my YouTube channel a couple of days ago. I've delayed posting it here until now, as I've been busy giving my blog a new look and template. I'm not quite finished playing around with it yet, but I'm loving the change so far, so I hope you like it too.

So what is this new look all about, I hear you ask. (Or maybe not, but I'm going to tell you anyway!)  Well, my trips away provided the perfect opportunity to sit back, reflect and take stock of the past year. As a result, I've found my mind jumping ahead to new year goals a little earlier than it usually would. When it comes to my blog and online presence, I've made some achievements I'm proud of in the last twelve months, but I really want to up my game in 2019. I won't go into too much detail now, partly because I haven't got it all figured out yet, and partly because I might do a proper blog post on it closer to the end of the year. But essentially, this explains both the new template and my absence for the past few weeks.

I'm still hoping to get some lovely new content up for you in December, but please do bear with me if consistency is sketchy for a little while longer. It has never been my strong point, so I hope it won't make too much difference if I take a little more time now to work on my goals, rather than jumping straight back in to the same old habits. After all, if I'm going to hit the ground running in 2019, then I'm going to need a solid plan, right?!

In the meantime, I hope you enjoy visiting York with me! Click here if you prefer to watch the vlog on YouTube, otherwise, here it is!


Until next time!

    1. Thanks Hanh! I've not tried Betty's in York, although I would love to. I've been to the original one in Harrogate a few times and it's so lovely. x

    1. I film vlogs on my iPhone, and think the quality has improved since I upgraded to the 8 plus, as I was using a 6 before this video. I just edit on iMovie. I started YouTube about a year ago but I'm still just feeling my way with it really, so no sophisticated equipment just yet! x

  9. Great vlog, thanks for sharing! I like your blog layout too, it sounds like while you didn't write a lot you had a productive time thinking about your goals and making some changes to the look of your blog :)

    Hope that you've had a great weekend! The heatwave was really intense this weekend so we had some quiet time at home - we put our Christmas tree up which was nice :)
