Cards Against Humanity

Went round to a friend's house to play Cards Against Humanity. An awesome game, especially the more inappropriate you get! It's ridiculously humid and hot in Osaka right now so it's hair up and cool clothes time! Unfortunately something really gross happened on the way home though....as Tom and I were changing trains and crossing the platform, a really drunk Japanese guy vomited all over us! It was so gross! Luckily we weren't far from home so as soon as we got back we had a shower and did some laundry, but still, eeeeeeew! I tried some new nail stickers too. They look cute but the ends are always messy so maybe I won't be using them anymore as they only lasted one night. Last night was a fab BBQ and tonight was a leaving party. Photos to come soon! Must get to bed now as I'm off to the Osaka Beer Festival tomorrow, yay! Love national holidays! Night guys, hope your weekend has been as epic as mine!

Square Wheeled Bikes.

Hey guys. Sorry I've been AWOL. It's all been a bit crazy at work. These are some pictures from a friend's birthday. We went to this awesome theme park that's based all around bikes. The highlight of the trip was clearly the square wheeled bikes! After the theme park we went out to a prison/dungeon themed restaurant where the drinks came in syringes and test tubes. So much fun!
It's been so hot here in Osaka until just a few days ago so can't wait to get all my Autumn clothes out.
Have you guys been watching the Rugby World Cup? I'm loving it. So there might be some red and white themed outfits coming up soon.

Blondie's good for travelling in.

Had a 2 hour car drive from Tulamben back to Ubud so decided something comfy but cool was needed.

Best setting for a Starbucks ever? I think it's up there!

Bali Photo Diary 3: Elephants

These elephants are rescued from logging camps in Sumatra and taken to Bali. They can't be taken back to Sumatra as their habitat is disappearing from the logging. Our elephant was called Tia and she's 28 years old. Best day of my life!

3 Weeks in Bali!

Hey guys. We got back yesterday after 3 weeks in Bali on the most amazing summer holiday. Today was spent sleeping in, doing laundry and sorting out all the photos from our hols. As well as psyching ourselves up to go back to work tomorrow after 3 weeks of pure relaxation and fun! I have so many photos for you guys but lets start with a few outfit pics from the first couple of days spent around Kuta.


Unfortunately managed to spill dinner on this dress on the first night and forgot to get it laundered, doh!

We've lived in Japan a long time so the fact that there's a Mark's in Bali was amazingly awesome for us! There's also a Topshop, Mothercare and Dorothy Perkins. It's a British invasion!

My new hat! Which Tom bargained like a pro for. Sadly I lost the band later in the holiday. Will show you how I rectified this later (and yes I'm super clumsy).





I actually wore this to the beach...got a few funny looks from most people wearing next to nothing as it's the beach but I didn't wanna burn, heh.

Basking in Bali

Hey everyone. Currently in Bali blogging from my iPod touch. Sorry I've been AWOL for a few weeks. I've been busy sorting out visa extentions, tax forms, and buying a house in England!

I've also just recovered from a bout of Bali belly! Ate some rice today, yay! Heh.
We've spent a week here so far. We went to Kuta, which is like the Costa del Sol but with drunk and rowdy Australians instead of Brits. They have a Marks & Spencers and a Topshop, oh and a Dorothy Perkins! After living in Japan for 3 years this was rather exciting for us, haha!

We're now on a beautiful island called Nusa Lembongan, where despite getting sick we've had a great time. Tom's done 4 dives from here and we've watched the sunset on the beach every night. It's completey chilled and gorgeous. Tomorrow we're heading up to Ubud for some culture and an elephant safari. We have just under 2 weeks left.

When I'm back I'll have loads of pictures to upload.
Hope everyone is having a good summer break in the Northern Hemisphere and same for winter down South.

Birthday in Bali

Well...a Balinese restaurant for my friend's birthday. It was a gorgeous setting and got me even more excited for my summer holiday. We're spending 3 weeks in Bali.

After dinner we went clubbing which is how this picture came about...

Oh dear!
