A WEEKEND AWAY // PERRANPORTH

'In the midst of movement and chaos, keep stillness inside of you.'



I'm not sure if you guys know but the ocean is my happy place. When I was growing up we lived 5 minutes from the beach and whenever I got angry or sad, (i was an angry teen) I would walk to the sea side, sit on the sand and the waves would make me feel at peace. 

Now that I've moved away from the water I miss it more than anything. So, this christmas David booked a trip to Cornwall as a present and I couldn't have been happier. Luckily he loves the beach as much as me and will go surfing even when its as flat as a pancake. 


Saturday

On Saturday morning we made the 5 hour drive down to Perranporth. It was a little rainy and pretty grey but as we pulled up to our air bnb, which was practically on the waters edge, I had this weird feeling that everything was familiar. I thought maybe it was just because the ocean made me feel at home but something definitely felt strange. 

After we'd had a quick coffee at our AirBnb we made our way down to the water and walked around the little town. My favourite thing about the beach, and this one in particular, is that it was FULL of dog walkers. We couldn't stop laughing at all of the dogs running round and chasing each other. Strangers were stood talking to each other as lifeguards patrolled the beach. It was perfect. 






After a nice walk on the beach, it was time for food. I dont know about you but i bloody love fish and chips. I hardly have it because it makes me feel like butt afterwards but you can't not have it at the beach. I would have taken a picture but it went straight in our bellies bc food and priorities. 

That evening we did something we've never really done in the two years of being together. We watched saturday night tv wrapped up in our duvet and it was THE BEST! We don't have a TV at our house so watching Ant & Dec's Saturday night take over was pretty dreamy tbh. It made me feel like i was 15 again waiting for The Xfactor to start. 


Sunday

This whole entire day was pretty much spent laying on the beach and I wouldnt have changed it for the world. All david wanted to do was surf - I was dying with jealousy BUT for the past few weeks i've been so dizzy and going under water didn't seem like the best idea. The best part of it all was that David was like an excited kid walking out to the ocean in his wetsuit :)

While he was out there I spoke to my mum on the phone and after telling her we were in Perranporth she said 'We used to go there all the time with you when you were a toddler' and then i pretty much lost my mind and self combusted. Now it all made sense why everything felt familiar!! I had been there before!! I still find it weird when I'm typing this that i felt these memories but couldn't remember them. Im not even sure if that makes sense but i think its the craziest thing that I knew I'd been there when it would have been about 20 years ago. I must have so many memories stored up in my brain of that exact place but I just can't access them. That tripped me out for the whole day haha! 







Monday

Monday morning came round way too fast. We checked out of our airbnb, and started our journey home. It may have just been two days but it felt like just the break we needed. Now I can't wait for the next one. 

Don't forget to check out our vlogs from the trip and we'll chat to you soon.

GUESS WHO'S BACK!!!!


DID YOU MISS ME??
probs not but hi. 


Here's the thing. I like blogs, I think they're really cool. I also like writing things, it's pretty fun. So last year when I started this blog, I freeeking loved it.... Butttt here's the other thing. I'm a lazy lazy bum. Like I could spend a good 5 hours just watching tv, even when i have tons of work to do. It's not that I don't want to do something, its just that i'm not the most productive human. Plus, Keeping up With The Kardashians is strangely addictive???

Any way. 

I feel like i have so much to talk about and share and looking back on the blogs I wrote last year makes me remember how much I loved making them... so, here I am, typing out a post and I'm pretty darn excited about it.


But thats not all.... 

Not only am I going to be posting again, but so is David! It was actually his idea to start all of this up again and that makes me really happy. We just feel like we do so much stuff that could be written about, from wedding planning, to babies, to much simpler (and less stressful) things like our favourite places to go on a sunny day or photos from a trip we've taken.


So I guess this one is just me saying hi. 
Hi. 
David would say hi too but he's out getting food bc i'm ill and have demanded chocolate. (dairy free of course)


Love you guys and I can't wait to get posting again.
