How my blog started:
My blog is still rather new having only started it at the end of last year but it’s something I had been wanting to do for a while! I wanted to blog as a way of connecting with people, an outlet for my thoughts and hopefully to eventually help some people. A recent relapse meant I finally had the time to sit down and puzzle my way through wordpress. 🙂
Two pieces of advice for new bloggers:
- To write what matters to you.
- To get involved with the blogging community! I didn’t realise when I started blogging how lovely and amazing everyone would be. 🙂

About Myself
I’m a 27 year old actor and drama teacher who lives in England. I love animals, eating and sleeping! 🙂
Question Answers
Q1. Which place would you like to visit before you die?
New Zealand so I can see where Lord of the Rings was filmed and the very highlands of Scotland.
Q2. What’s your weirdest dream so far?
I actually can’t remember. I remember times of waking up and thinking ‘that was super strange dream’ and then it’s gone…
Q3. If given a chance then which Disney character would you like to be and why?
Belle. Beauty and the Beast was my favourite film when growing up. Just love the story and I also love books like Belle. 🙂 Otherwise Lilo because Stitch is so cute.
Q4. What’s your current obsession?
Cute animal videos
Q5. If you could be invisible for a whole day then what all would you do??
I’m not actually sure I would like to be invisible for the day. I’ve been pondering this question for a few days and really can’t think of anything I would do!
My Best Blog Post
My most recent one because I got so many lovely comments from people on how to help anxiety. This meant so much to me and the suggestions have really helped: https://dinosaursdonkeysandms.com/2017/01/09/me-and-dizzy-trying-to-combat-anxiety/
