Recently, work has been very draining. It's a very demanding job at the best of times but with August comes a whole other level. Unless you are a rep, have been a rep or know a rep, you probably don't understand or realise just quite how busy a job it is. I know a lot … Continue reading REP LIFE SEASON 3: A DAY IN THE LIFE
Jollies come at the start, middle and end of every season. Either to promote team bonding, keep up motivation or celebrate success, there is always a party or event. They're always something that you look forward to and in my experience, always disappointing. A lack of imagination, lack of money and usually a kick off … Continue reading REP LIFE SEASON 3: MID-SEASON JOLLY
My driving history has been interesting since passing my test 18 months ago. I learnt to drive and took my test in the UK but since, I have not driven on British soil. After passing my test last February, I didn't have a car to drive in the three weeks between passing and moving to … Continue reading DRIVING IN CYPRUS
With the modern age of technology and social media, as well as using blogs as inspiration for my adventures, Instagram is also actively searched. Through Instagram this year, I have found some of Cyprus' hidden gems and was so excited when one day I came across a photo of flamingos. Sadly, on further research I … Continue reading FINDING FLAMINGOS
At school, sports day was a time of year I would always dread. Our classes competed against each other and each member of the class has to participate in at least one activity. The only thing I was willing to do was 100m or 200m but I would never volunteer for them in the hopes … Continue reading RUNNING FOR BEER: THE PAPHOS BEER MARATHON
When you have the afternoon off work, most people catch up on laundry, chill in bed watching tv or pop to the beach if it's a nice day. My afternoons off seem to go off the beaten track a bit, going against the grain and I do things like exploring abandoned places. Theletra is a … Continue reading THE ABANDONED VILLAGE OF OLD THELETRA
Three years and three destinations with each year and each destination completely different. As the years have passed, I've grown up, I've become older and wiser, rep life has completely changed for me. The meaning of it, my thoughts about it and the way I approach it has changed a lot since the beginning, particuarly … Continue reading REP LIFE SEASON 3: HOW IT’S CHANGED
Gone are the days when birthday celebrations would consist of a big night out. I've finally had enough over the past seven years and it no longer tickles my fancy. I think I've had three 'nights out' this year and every single one of them bored me. During each of them, I was dreaming of … Continue reading QUARTER OF A CENTURY CAMPING
Last week, I posted this very soppy post as Ash and I have now been together for one year. That's one whole amazing trip around the sun together! To celebrate, I wanted a nice little mini break away from our day to day Paphos life so booked us a hotel on the opposite side of the island … Continue reading CELEBRATING A TRIP AROUND THE SUN
Last week was my birthday. I am now a quarter of a century and I have entered a new age group. Goodbye 18-24! Over the years, I've done a lot, lived a lot, experienced a lot and with that, learnt a lot. Particularly over the last couple of years, I have learnt a lot … Continue reading 25: THE SECRETS TO LIFE
