EXPLORING LONDON: PRIMROSE HILL

This is possibly my favourite place in London I found when exploring. I can't believe I had never been here or really known of it before but now I love coming here and try any excuse to.
 
Primrose Hill is next to Regent's Park and London Zoo in North London, you can also walk to and from the markets of Camden Town (which I did read more here ).

Enter the gates to the Hill and the path leads off in many directions all directing you to the top of the Hill or the entering/exiting gates. 

 
I can imagine the Hill in autumn with the auburn leaves falling to the ground.
In winter (hoping that it snows!) the snow on the branches would look beautiful and while walking down the path seeing snow either side covering the grass and the flickering lights in the days that night falls early, the frozen spider webs hanging from the side.

In Spring / Summer, the occasionally hot days we get in London, is beautiful to sit out on the grass and just relax!
 
When you finally get to the top, don't worry the Hill isn't that bad to walk up and if you think you can't just remember the view is totally worth it! Plus there are benches at the top where you can sit and rest while enjoying the view of the London Skyline.


 
THE VIEW!!

 

You can see The Shard, London Eye, BT Tower...


.... Canary Wharf (the business district)





 You can see the whole of the London Skyline right in front you and on a clear sunny day it is amazing!

If anyone visits London this is a must see when exploring and recommend it to anyone visiting.


 
Have you been here or would want to?

2: The Liebster Award

I'm so happy I got nominated for the Liebster Award again. Thank you to Sonam from fashtasticflare for nominating me.
 
Here's the 11 question I have been asked to answer:

1.What inspired you to start a blog?
I really wanted a place where I could share my my pictures. My interest in photography grew more and more and I was taking loads of pictures I was proud of and with no one to show, in particular of my holidays and travels.

2.When you were a child, what did you want to be when you were older?
Apparently many random, different things many little kids go through 'that stage'. I remember wanting to be an artist and that artistic side of me has stuck as it is what I'm taking/focusing on in my education.

3.If you could be a colour, what colour what you be and why?
That's a funny question, I wouldn't really know. Black as I wear black a lot but my favourite colour is purple (with a grey-ish tone to it)

4.What's your must have make up product?
Full coverage foundation for me is what I need for sure.

5.Who's your favourite YouTuber and why?
In my 'About Me Tag' post I shared my favourite was Sammi from BeautyCrush because she's also from London. (Read more in the post)

6.What was the last five apps you used?
On my iPhone: Photos, Safari, Nexflix, Twitter, Calendar

7.Who's your celebrity crush right now?
I don't really have crushes nor have I ever to be honest.

8. Last film you watched?
21 Jump Street was on the other night.

9.Last song you listened to?
You Know You Like It - DJ Snake/Aluna George

10.Who do you aspire to be like?
Anyone successful and who has a happy life

11.What is your proudest achievement?
Just getting through the day - education slow but steady. I loved that I pushed myself to start my blog.

A MONTH IN PICTURES: JULY 2015

I had busy last month but it's good to be busy isn't it? Since the last day of college my summer holidays have been busy with exciting stuff, mainly travel.
 
Here's what I've been up to in the month of July:
 
To start off my 3 days at Wireless festival! Yes I was tired but I loved it - the best day was the first day I went, I am so glad I won a pair of tickets to the day. I blogged about it - read more about it here.
 
 
Then I had a busy week after showing my cousin around London. A new place I love is walking through Camden (which you can read more in my Exploring London blog post) to Primrose Hill where you can see a stunning view of the London skyline (blog post coming soon!)

 
Two days after I went on my summer holiday this year. 9 hours on a flight and I was in the Dominican Republic! On instagram I posted a few more pictures (@ rhee_rheaa).


A very relaxing place but mostly I love the cocoa and coffee beans the grow there! There my favourites things - all you need ;) - doing excursions is a great way to see places. I went to see the growing field and the capital city: Santo Domingo.

 
 
How has your summer been?
