Dorset Weekend!

I took the train to Dorset where I spent the weekend at the Brenscombe Outdoor Center. While we were there, we completed numerous team building tasks and even took a little stroll into the nearby local pub. 

 A little monkeying around on a twisted ropes course and a bit of archery to keep me busy!

I managed to injure myself walking to the local pub... Trekking through a cow pasture and down a treacherous steep/rocky hill. Sprained my ankle and chilled at the pub with a bag of ice! It didn't hurt at all, but it sure stopped me from going rock climbing the second day!  We did a high ropes course on the second day... it might have hurt a bit but I wasn't going to just sit there and watch everyone!  SO I climbed the pole and jumped!! 

Overall it was a great experience and would love to go back! 

First Few Weeks In London

Oh Hey!!!

It has been a crazy first month here in London... I have now finally found time to actually post on here.

I spent my first week staying in a hotel, commuting to work, and learning the London Underground! That is sure going to take some getting used to. I have made a ton of new friends!

Since I did most of the touristy things last year when I was here for a few days, I am now trying to see the things that are considered less touristy and that the locals would do. Sometimes I just pick a random tube stop and explore that area! It has proven to be successful so far. I have wandered the Brixton Market, Shoreditch, and Greenwich, Notting Hill Carnival, as well as going to a few pubs and clubs here and there.

You can't beat the view from my flat! I am seriously in LOVE with where I live and I wouldn't change it for anything.

Work has been a serious learning experience that's for sure, BUT I think I finally have a better understanding of what I will be doing for the next year! 

So far I have been planning a trip to Greece in October, and possibly a trip to Norway here in the near future! I am super excited for this new adventure, and will posting on here periodically!
