I had a very interesting conversation with my friend Em over lunch today. She’s researching an article into why men don’t call women back, or suddenly go off radar after a few weeks of dating. She’s the same age as me, and about 18 months ago, she met a 34 year old who she instantly [...]

I want to slap Laurie Gottlieb

So, I’ve been back just over a week now, and I’m already bitterly regretting not having stowed away under one of the flatbeds in Upper Class (I’ll stop banging on about it now, I promise) (it’s not like I’m being paid to promote them or anything). I’ve returned to a daily diet of misery and [...]

The next few days were spent on Big Island, and that’s where it all got a little bit more action packed. We went horse riding on the Parker Ranch, over land that looked a bit like how I picture Montana or Wyoming – flat, endless expanses of plain – except that Montana and Wyoming are [...]
I love Hawaii

I’ve decided I LOVE Hawaii. So much that I think I would like to live there (okay, so I’ve decided I want to live in almost every place I’ve visited recently but truly, I think I’m a Hawaii kind of girl…). The first two days were spent on Oahu, and our hotel was right on [...]
