Just Say Yes: Skiing in Saalbach, Austria

Back in April last year, I took the biggest leap (yes, leap!) out of my comfort zone I have ever taken and went on the ski trip with my senior school.
None of my friends were going and I didn't really know anyone too well who was going on the trip. I can't even explain how scared and nervous I was!
However, I did end up having such a brilliant week!

Until next time beautifuls,

Portsmouth

So you probably know that I live in Portsmouth..
A few weeks back me and my sister took a drive up on top of Portsdown Hill, and here you can see right across Portsmouth and get some stunning pictures if it's a sunny clear day! So I took my camera along..

And then I left it in the car with my sister whilst I used my phone to take some panorama pictures and this happened.. haha, cute though.


 Portsmouth in the day,

 and Portsmouth at night.

Then a few days ago, I went out for the first bike ride I have been on in ages because it was a lovely day.


I was out for 2 and a half hours and in that time I managed to get lost in a car park (took me 10 minutes to find my way out..), somehow cycle to the other side of Portsmouth without even knowing how on earth I got there, get back to where I live (after getting lost in the car park again on the way back) then end up in the town centre after cycling through the ferry ports.. I really don't know how I do it!
But yes, I took my camera again ang I got some good snaps!







I then tested the zoom on my camera, and safe to say I was impressed!



Now I am like any girl really, I hate going down subways! But there is one subway in Portsmouth that was painted nicely by some professional artists and the community and the pictures are so beautfiul and it makes it so peaceful down there! Well up until a few weeks ago that is..
For so long it had (surprisingly) not ever been vandalised in the few years it had been there, but then it was closed off for a while whilst some work was being done to make it safer and in that time, stupid teens took that time as an opportunity to graffiti :(
But it still doesn't stop me taking pictures of the amazing art work!




I've missed going on my bike so much! It's good exercise and I get to explore where I live and find more places that I didn't know existed!

I hope that was interesting for any of your who live else where and have never been to Portsmouth! Is Portsmouth what you expected from these pictures or different? Let me know in the comments!

Until next time beautifuls,
