3 books I read in May…

Dry by Neal and Jared Schusterman When California suffers from drought and the government announce there is no water left we follow a group of people and their fight to survive.

6 places we love in The Lakes…

We have visited the lakes annually since 2014 and we absolutely love it. The views are just out of this world and it's a place we go to just relax and unwind and spend quality time together. 1. Windermere is such a beautiful part of the lakes. Boat trips, boat hire, food, drink and crazy …
