Some of you will remember me from my travel posts last year. I spent the early part of 2015 venturing around India and South East Asia with my boyfriend and had the time of my life. Having been home exactly a year this month, I have had time to reflect on my trip and one...Read More
“Sophie stop frowning!” It’s the sentence I heard so often that it may as well have been my strap line. I frown while I work, while I workout, while I eat and even while I sleep. I’m not even aware I’m doing it most of the time and over the years my frown has led...Read More
You can’t Botox your ovaries; it’s a sentence I read the other day that has stuck with me. It’s been playing on my mind and I can’t shake it.
