Do You Like Hiking?
Hiking is a growing Activity. More and more people are starting to take on hiking as a great outdoor activity. Why not? You get to see some beautiful nature that can't be seen by car. It brings families together too, as they are exploring the great outdoors. It also has some good health benefits. It is great physical exercise, but not only that, it is good for stress relief. Nothing is better than just leaving all your worries and going out for a fresh air walk.

Summer is a magical time. The weather is warm, the sun is shining, the afternoon thunderstorms give you the perfect excuse to take a nap.

Hot Air Balloons Rising at Dawn
I never like getting up early in the morning, but today is different. I have booked a hot air balloon ride and I'm required to be up at the crack of dawn to be at the centre for the launch. I travelled to the balloon centre, driving while still dark and while the rest of England sleeps under a full moon. I eventually arrive at the balloon centre and start to meet up with the other intrepid passengers for our flight.

Struck Gold
A week stay on the Gold coast of Costa Rica has spoiled me. Paradise is the best word to describe it. Guanacaste was amazing. My grandparents have had a timeshare for years, and they love to travel so they racked up enough points to get this amazing four floor home built alongside the cliffs of the beach. I was financially blessed in 2018 to grab a room, and be a part of this week-long international experience. There was everything you needed from views, to an infinity pool, a beach right below you, along with a beachfront restaurant. There were three restaurants in walking distance, but there was also a beautiful grill at the house on the third-floor deck along with the infinity pool. Officially, I am completely obsessed with this idea of renting a house for every vacation!

Urban Exploring 101
As a species I think it's fair to say we are a nosey bunch. Not just because we tend to stick our noses in other people's business without realising it, but because we are famous for letting curiosity get the better of us.

Looking for Fall Mushrooms in New Hampshire. Top Story - June 2019.
Mushrooms are a truly magnificent thing to behold. According to mycologists (people who study mushrooms), there are over 10,000 known species of mushrooms, and there are even more which are undiscovered. Identifying mushrooms is a challenging and rewarding hobby, even if you don't set out to consume any of your findings. Learning about different structures and features can seem overwhelming, but once you can start to put the pieces together, simply identifying different species feels extremely gratifying.
