The year that will probably go down in history for being the most challenging, eye rolling and fucked up year there has been (in my life time at least). 2020 has affected all of our day to day routine lives as well as effecting our mental well-being and challenging our mental strength. Over the past … Continue reading 2020…

Write It All Out
Towards the end of last year I gave myself some reminders to try and keep me mentally healthy. One of them being to make sure I write everything out of my mind. So this is what I’m doing. I’ve had a lot on my mind recently. My second trip back to Australia has worked out … Continue reading Write It All Out
What A Decade
There is no doubt that mental health has been on one hell of a ride this decade. For me, I started off this decade by attempting suicide, self-harming, I was severely depressed and I had a firm hand on my self-destruct button up until last year. I’m now here clear minded, traumas processed, I see … Continue reading What A Decade
Anxiety VS Gym
I have written about my relationship with the gym before (which you can read about here). I feel like I can now write a more up to date article about getting through my anxiety troubles at the gym. So basically, before I very first went to Australia I had been managing to keep up with … Continue reading Anxiety VS Gym
Reaching A Milestone
For the past few weeks I have been living and working in a place within Victoria. It was a spontaneous decision. I had 5 weeks to spare and decided it would be better to work during those 5 weeks than to travel around and spend money (which I couldn’t afford to do). So I messaged … Continue reading Reaching A Milestone

Walshs Pyramid
Walsh's Pyramid. The highest, free standing pyramid in the world. A natural phenomenon. It stands at roughly 922m high and is fairly popular amongst locals and tourists to hike up and today was the day I made it up to the top. I found out about Walsh's Pyramid whilst doing a web search of things … Continue reading Walshs Pyramid
New Life Lessons
I've been home now a few weeks now and it's given me time to see how much Australia has changed me. Before I left for Australia I was someone who struggled to leave the house without looking like someone who had just had an all day sesh in town, spent the night passed out by … Continue reading New Life Lessons
Fraser Island
Our day at Fraser Island started off a bit gloomy. There had been a cyclone hit the area not that long before so when we were staying at Rainbow Beach it was quite rainy but we still went ahead with the tour and I’m glad we did. We got picked up by a 4x4 bus/lorry. … Continue reading Fraser Island
Great Barrier Reef
We went to the Great Barrier reef whilst we were staying in Arlie Beach. We caught a boat which took us through and past the Whitsunday island and after about a two hour boat ride we made it to the pontoon at Heart Reef which got it’s name because of the heart shape (duh). I … Continue reading Great Barrier Reef
