29 Things In 29 Years!




I've seen loads of blog posts where bloggers talk about their wishes and plans for the next stage of their lives; aka  "20 Things I Wanna Do Before I'm 20" or "30 Things I Wanna Do Before I'm 30" but I don't want to look ahead and plan too much so since I turned 29 at the end of last month, I thought I would share with you a little something different - 29 Things I've Done in 29 Years!



1. Became a veggie. Became a vegan.
2. Became a fiance. Became a wife.
3. Became a mum.
4. Redescovered my faith.
5. Got my health sorted.
6. Bought our own car.
7. Raise money for charity. Donate to charity.
8. Buy my own blog domain.
9. Host a bloggers event.
10. Became a full-time blogger.
11. Research family tree and stay in touch with a long lost relative.
12. Order a pizza and hang out with the delivery guy munching it.
13. Sing alone for more than 200 people on stage.
14. Survive something I shouldn’t have survived.
15. Own a proper vintage china tea cup and saucer.
16. Have someone cook me a real romantic candle lit dinner.
17. Adopt an animal.
18. Go to Paris.
19. Have my very first snowball fight.
20. Help an animal give birth.

    1. Thank you darling, that means a lot to me that you think that! Paris simply is just the most beautiful place. New York is somewhere that my mum has always wanted to go too but I personally think it's a little too busy for me, I would love to travel to America and explore it all though. Thank you for your comment πŸŒΈπŸ’œ✨

  12. You've seen a ghost! I really want too (and not want too) to see a ghost. You know, just out of curiosity. I love all things horror and paranormal so!

    1. I spent some of my childhood growing up in a haunted house which was haunted by the spirit of the old women who sadly passed away there. There were a few times where it was so scary, and in the end we had to move home due to what happened there. I'm also a lover of horror and paranormal and I think living in that house got me interested in it all in the first place. Thank you so much for your comment πŸŒΈπŸ’œ✨
