HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!



Hope everyone has had a lovely Sunday,

This is my first blog post for 2016 and the year is going to fast again... I am bad at frequently blogging but I am going to keep it up now I have a new laptop ad my other one broke!

I thought I would tag my newest YouTube video to this post seeing as it is Valentines day and this is the first Valentines day for us as a engaged couple. I hope everyone has had a special Valentines with loved ones. 

Finally I got round to editing all my holiday footage from the Maldives and I am trying to edit a couple more videos for my channel at the moment and I would love to go away this year but I don't know where, have you booked any holidays and where is best to go?


Speak soon,

The week I spent in the MALDIVES..

Hello everyone,

I am back and I have been super busy, so much has happened since I last blogged! Since I have been gone I visited the Maldives back in June and it was the most amazing time of my life…

My boyfriend had surprised me by booking the holiday for my birthday. He had booked and planned everything. I have always wanted to go to the Maldives and now I can say that it truly is the most beautiful place on earth. 

Firstly we flew with Quatar Airways from Manchester Airport to Doha (7hour flight) then on to Malé (4 and a half hour flight) which we then got a speed boat over to our island called Adaaran Select Hudhuranfushi. I had never flew long hall before but the airline was fab, we had plenty of room and food. I would highly recommend flying with Quatar and travelling as much as you can! 

Upon landing you can see the beautiful islands of the Maldives and when we got off the last flight the heat hit us, its so warm and humid! We were both buzzing with excitement and when we reached our island, we were greeted with an amazing refreshing cocktail and a towel. All the staff during our stay were wonderful. For the entire week we just couldn't believe our eyes as the views were stunning..

During our stay we stayed in a beach hut for 3 nights and then we upgraded to an Ocean Villa for 4nights. I would highly recommend booking an Ocean Villa or upgrading as that was truly amazing!

Considering we were there for a week the weather was great for us, we did a lot of snorkeling, swimming and exploring the island. We were also all exclusive so we could get a drink or snack whenever we wanted.. I just wish I could go back tomorrow.

Whilst we were there on the 5th night Shane proposed in the Ocean Villa and booked a private meal on the beach to celebrate, that was the most magical night of my life! 

Me and Shane met in high school when I was 12 and he was 13 and we have been inseparable ever since then. We had spoke about engagement but I honestly had no idea he was going to propose!

We had the best time ever in the Maldives, we met some amazing people, made amazing memories and ate some amazing food! We are currently saving to visit again or even tie the knot over there!

Most our pictures and videos where filmed with the Gopro Hero 4 and we are currently editing the videos ready for my YouTube!

Top 10 Maldives Must Haves!

My Top 10 Maldives/ Holiday Must Haves..

So I am sure that a few of you are aware that I am going the Maldives very soon! It will be a week on Wednesday and I am super excited! Since I found out we were going on holiday my life has consisted of buying and collecting stuff ready. I wanted to share with you a few things, I feel that these 10 items are a must when traveling abroad! 

(1&2) 

Sunhat & Sunglasses

For a while I have been on the hunt for a large sunhat and the right sized glasses. 

I was really happy when I came across both of these together in Newlook, the glasses cost £5.99 and my hat was only £12.99. I think it is important when your fair skinned to have a hat to hide under when it gets to hot and I wanted big glasses get with it. 

(3&4)

Relief& Repellent 

Whenever I go abroad I always seem to get attacked by nasty Mosquitos and bugs! Sometimes it can ruin your holiday so it is definitely a must have to take a relief and repellent spray or pen of some sort. Jungle Formula is meant to be good and I found this in Boots sale for £2.50! Both the Mosquito Repellent& Relief pens are from the One Pound shop, so I wanted to get them to try them out too! I was also told that you can get garlic capsules to take during the holiday as the Mosquitos won't like the taste of your blood….not sure if that works. 

(5,6,7) 

Sun Protection & After Sun

Plenty of Sun Protection and After Sun are a must. 

I always find when being in the heat and sun all day, I have to cover myself in After Sun in the evenings. Hawaiian Tropic Uv Protection from Boots on offer for £6.50 and it smells so fresh, I had to get it! Garnier soothing Aftersun £.5.00 from Boots and Garnier After Sun Tan Maintainer £3.98. 

(8&9)

Snorkel and Mini Fan

I hate over heating so when I found this Mini Fan I had to get it and it was pink too! I got it from £1 shop and it doesn't need batteries either which is a bonus. My pink Snorkel is from Sports Direct and was £4.99. I was told I can hire a Snorkel at the resort but I decided to buy one before hand because people had recommend too and it will save money.

Neck Support and Comfort 

When travelling for a long time I like to get comfy and cozy and this Neck Cushion is ANOTHER £1 shop bargain. I was recommended to get one as they are very light and easy to carry. I was told you do sometimes get given cushions or pillows for the flight but just incase it is worth a £1 and my its final must have! 

I have got many more accessories and products for holiday but these are my must haves! Hope you enjoyed my post and I will definitely be annoyingly posting more about my holiday afterwards. 

Are you going away soon?

Are any of my must haves yours too?
