America at a Glance

A photo of the sun rising (or setting!) in Joshua Tree. Skinny tree trunks are almost silhouetted against the soft blue sky, with hills in the background and a sandy foreground.

I’m back! After a week or so of total limbo (jetlag, staying in the spare room whilst my room was redecorated, trying to decide what I’m doing with my life now), I’ve finally (somewhat) caught up with real life again. You can expect normal blogging/social media updates from here on out!

But what can I say about my trip to America? It was amazing – I don’t even know where to start. From the stunning Grand Canyon which gave me jelly legs (even though I’m not scared of heights!) to speakeasy bars in LA. I have so many memories from this trip that I cannot wait to share here to look back on in future years.

Until then, as usual tradition, I’m sharing a random pick of photos from my trip. I’ve tried to choose a photo from each area/adventure, but it’s been super hard trying to cut them all down. Still, feast your eyes on this glance at my visit to America!

The Spanish Village Art Centre in Balboa Park. The floor is filled with colourful mosaic tiles and the low buildings have brown tiled roofs.
Colourful flag-like decorations in Red, Green and White hang above a busy street in Tijuana.

Louise and Briony stood in front of a helicopter at night. Briony is wearing a floral dress and Louise is in a pale pink pleated skirt with a black vest top.
Louise is sitting on red rocks at the Grand Canyon , with the canyon stretching out behind her. She's in denim shorts and a dark blue hoodie.
