Life of H

Living in student accommodation means decorating you room and house are generally kept to a minimum. You work with what you've got. At the beginning of the term, visiting everyone's houses and being nosy was great fun. You got to check out their house and see what they did with their space.   For me, my room is my space, somewhere where I can chill out and have moments where I can escape and relax. I thought I would share what I'd done with my room, although it's most likely not going to stay like this for long

A Few days ago I posted about my trip to Castle Howard, sharing some of the photos from my trip of the interior of the Castle. I thought I would also do a separate post of the grounds, which was equally as beautiful. For the majority of the day, the weather wasn't great, living up to 'typical English weather' conditions, However later into the afternoon the sun came out to play, creating a beautiful sunset and evening, even if it was a rather chilly one. 

Mince Pies are most certainly a Christmas staple, I make them almost every year (unless mum beats me to it). This year was no exception. Today I decided to go down the easy route, with a super easy recipe and having fun with the decorations. 

Just before coming home for Christmas, myself and a friend, took a trip to the beautiful Castle Howard. Although the weather wasn't great, it was a wonderful way to get into the festive spirit. Both the grounds and the house has been decked out for Christmas with and endless number of Christmas Trees to marvel at, alongside the remarkable exterior and interior of the Castle.
