On to the next...

Let's not deny it,

goodbyes suck. 

Packing our lives into tiny suitcases and farewelling our incredible college friends was an emotionally charged affair. I can honestly say that the decision to study abroad is one of the best i've ever made. 



But! There is a bit of 'sweet' in the bitterness of bidding farewell... as we gear up to start the next phase of our journey.  


Stop one: back to Vegas for Memorial Day weekend....

Watch this space.

Feeling festive




It's official. I am suffering severe Ultra Music Festival withdrawals. 

Unfortunately, finals are fast approaching and the requirement to study up a storm isn't really agreeing with my cravings to dance in the sunshine. Go figure. 

It's funny to think that we didn't even intend to go to the 3-day extravaganza. We thought simply attending a side show at Miami's Masquerade Motel would satisfy our inner festival lovers.

However, after goosebump-invoking and eardrum-bursting sets by Alesso, Calvin Harris and Swedish House Mafia - we were proved very wrong indeed. 




Luckily, it was easy to get our hands on discounted one-day passes. Never underestimate the benefits of spontaneity, kids.

The weather was amazing, the sound unrivalled and the atmosphere indescribable. 

And as the sun set on Miami's picturesque high-rises, it was pretty much impossible not to be loving life.




In conclusion,

Wouldn't it be nice?
