France












1. Beautiful bicycle in Toulouse/ 2. My boyfriend and I/ 3. Streets of Toulouse/ 4. My drink of the holiday/ 5. Place Du Capitole in Toulouse/ 6. Botanical Gardens where we picnicked/ 7. My sister painting the Union Jack/ 8. Mojito by the tennis court/ 9. Flying boyfriend/ 10. Sister and me/ 11. Pool snacks

I just got back from a holiday in France. My family, boyfriend and I spent 3 days wandering around Toulouse's beautiful streets and shops, eating Tapas, drinking Desperados, and lounging in parks and on benches. We then drove to our friend's house in the Gers where we have spent every summer for the last 12 years. This involved nothing but sunbathing, swimming, eating delicious food, oh and also having our own olympics with the 23 people who were there, which was hilarious! (Hence my sister painting the Union Jack!). I won a silver in synchronised jumping and one in 50m swim! 
I felt so lucky to have such a lovely break, and have the post-holiday blues now that I'm back to reality...

Are you all enjoying summer? I'm not appreciating all the winter coats in shops right now! I'm not ready to say goodbye to warm weather. I plan to have a giveaway in the next week or so, so stay tuned!

  2. That sounds like the perfect vacation! That pool looks amazing.

    I refuse to believe that summer's almost over. When people talk about fall, pretend I can't hear them. So far, it's working.
