I’m not entirely sure where time has gone but ladies and gentleman it is in fact 8 years this month since I moved to England.

Don’t worry, I’m feeling mega old now too. SORRY MOM!

The years have literally flown by and although I don’t know if will be spending the next 8 years here, I do look back at the past years with some mixed feelings. They have been 8 great years, they have been hard, they have been sad and they have been life-changing. I have made some amazing friends, made some enemies and met people I don’t even remember.

This honestly could not come at a better time though, as the boyfriend and I had just whipped up these delicious Vietnamese inspired summer rolls and I was kinda dying to share it with you. Plus they are so freakin’ instagrammable!

hey dont hate.

I have 7 months left of my 20s. 7 freaking months. What the frick, where has the time gone?! As I am approaching 30 with what feels like the speed of lightning, I am trying to stick my finger in the ground and try to get my bearings. Like I remember when my mom turned 30 and at that age, she had moved around the world, got married, had a kid, separated, and reinvited herself by going back to uni. Superwoman much? I’m just over here trying to find the energy to put pants on. So I decided it was time I sat down, and had a HARD look as to where my life is headed.
