"Wonder what happens to all the words when they’re deleted." – if this ain't me for at least an hour a day!!

Loved this peek into your life again, it reminds me that it's fine to have a normal mundane-ish schedule. Also, thanks for the very kind mentions Ella, you are too sweet!

YES! The fear of people coming at me with microphones, lights and camera, I thought it would be only something you saw in London, maybe Manchester but they’re even all over Glasgow and Edinburgh! Nowhere is safe hahaha

Literally!! I felt so bad because I knew they were trying to do their job but I didn't want any part of it 😂

"wonder what happens to all the words when they're deleted". I literally just wrote a poem on this concept 😅

I thoroughly enjoy your week in bullet points series! I love that you write it like it's coming straight from your head it makes it sound real and kind of gives a Bridget Jones diary vibe which I looove. Also, your days sound so cosy (writing, reading, hot chocolate, a film in the background, meet with friends) I love it!! 💓

P.s. I saw a cute birthday card in Tesco with Claudia Winkleman on it and I thought of you! Very random but birthday card suggestion for your friends or family? 😅

Omg a Bridget vibe, what a compliment! Hahah I feel like this was a particularly cosy week, this week for example has basically been work, pilates, sleep.

YES I NEED THAT CARD. Need your thoughts on the Traitors 🤯

Nooooo Ella I haven't been watching it because of being away! 😅 I watched the first couple of episodes and then decided after being away I was too far gone to catch up! My mum filled me in on the details and the finale and I'm tempted to just watch the finale what do you think? It sounded quite dramatic!

Always always always a weekly fave !!! You've taken me to London and back and on walks and you've made me sense lots of food from the (dis)comfort of my dull office - thank you xxx

This was fun! So pleased you made it to The Importance of Being Earnest - I really wanted to see it but couldn't find the right dates/ seats to go. It sounded so good!

Oooh I'd be interested to know what you think of the Tteokbokki book. I read it last year - but I shall say no more!

If you get the chance to see it at the cinema I'd highly recommend - it was SO good!

Ooh I'll let you know - although I had thought it was fiction, now I know it's not but I'm still excited to dive in. Thank you for reading Florentyna!! <3

I love these! I also have no idea how you hope from tv show to tv show. I’m such a creature of habit, I pick 2-3 shows with full seasons out and hop through them nightly!

Reality show with dinner

Drama light after dinner

Actual drama to follow

Light hearted YouTube before read and bed
