Sun, sea and ice cream...

I LOVE the North East of England! I am a city girl at heart but I adore days out in the countryside. This week my family took a trip into Northumberland. The plan was to walk from Craster to Dunstanburgh but due to the crazy business of a bank holiday Monday we carried on driving to Embleton. Embleton is a little Northumberland village with just a few houses, a pub, golf course and beach. Such a gem. 

There is a pretty walk down from the village to the beach. The sun made the walk even more enjoyable. 

After a picnic lunch on the beach we wandered across to Dunstanburgh through the sand dunes. Such a lovely walk with the most incredible views! 

This was the view as we walked from the beach towards Dunstanburgh castle... 

The weather got nicer and nicer as the day went on, I ended up getting very sunburnt!!

If you are ever in the North East you NEED to visit Northumberland. So beautiful.

You should check out this website... http://www.suefenlonart.co.uk/, she is my favourite artist and she paints the most amazing pictures and many of them feature Northumberland.

Summer time..

It is now officially the summer holidays and it is only May! Crazy! Today I had my last exam of first year at university and I am so relieved to be finished with exams, lectures, books and revision! I really don't like exams, they stress me out too much! I'd much rather write essays but this semester I had 3 exams. Very sad but now I can't wait to enjoy the sun and relax. It is going to be great. 

Celebratory end of exams photo! Love these girls! 

I don't know how I would have survived revision without those girlies. They have been my moral support through tedious psychology revision! 

I've already embraced the freedom in my 4 hours since finishing! Went for a lovely walk with some of my friends from my course. It was great to be able to spend time together without the stresses of revision. I have also painted my nails! They are now very summery and pink! 

Now it is time to finish packing up my life here in Edinburgh before I head back home for the summer! I have so much stuff, I don't quite know how I will manage to pack it all up!
