Postcards from Edinburgh

Undeniably one of my favourite places to visit, David and I headed to Scotland's capital to celebrate my 24th birthday earlier in the month. Because of the incredibly cold weather, and because we ticked so much of to-do list off when we visited during the Fringe two years ago, the three-day...

One Year in Our Home

Exactly one year ago today David and I moved into our first home and it's crazy to think about how much has changed since then. From fitting a new boiler in January, and subsequently replacing all the radiators (and then plastering the walls), to fitting a completely new ensuite, to fitting new flooring...

Postcards from Orlando

David and I travelled to Orlando, Florida for two weeks back in November 2016 as a celebration of my graduation and to mark our 4th anniversary. We covered so much in the two weeks (all Disney parks, Universal Studios, Discovery Cove, Kennedy Space Centre, etc) and I took so many photos, that...

A Week in Rome (And My Top Tips for Visiting!)

In August, David and I travelled to Rome for a week for our annual holiday. I've made it a habit to visit somewhere new every year and Italy has been somewhere I've always wanted to visit as an adult (I visited Venice when I was a toddler, and I can't remember any of it!). Here's what we did in...

September Snapshot

Coats are getting thicker, the air is getting cooler, and daylight is getting shorter: it's October, and autumn is officially here. On reflection, September was probably the most exciting and unplanned month of 2018. To begin with, the 1st was David’s 24th birthday. We’d booked tickets to see...

About Evie

This blog is named after our puppy Evie so it seemed apt to dedicate a post to her. We brought Evie home on Christmas Eve last year, only weeks after David and I moved into our first home together. I remember initially we were drawn to her from the photos online; she had a petite, pointy face, white...

On Working In an Industry Not Related to My Degree

(Grab a cup of tea, this post's a long one!) I've been a university graduate for just over two years now and, if you would've asked me back when I was studying what I would be doing in 2018, I'm positive I wouldn't have said that I'll be working in marketing. The reason why is because, up until...

About August...

It's crazy to think that we're now in the ninth month of 2018. Where has this year gone? August, much like most of 2018, flew by, though it was marked by an incredible holiday. At the beginning of the month, we (as in me and David), visited Rome for the first time. We spent a week in the eternal...

The First Post

Hi, welcome to the Little Blog of Eve! Named after our cockapoo puppy Evie, this blog will cover everything from home decor to puppy updates (pupdates?), great reads and travel diaries, and everything in between. So, the crucial part: the about me bit! The pup of the hour, Evie 'About me',...
