Our California Trip

Some of you may know that my boyfriend went travelling this year... I think I might have mentioned it in a previous blog post.

It's quite a story actually...

Carl and I met JUST before he was due to go on his travels, so it was obviously quite a sticky situation for us. Of course, we would just have to do our best to make a long distance relationship work for 4 months. And we did.

Just before he left in the January, he asked me how I was with flying. I said I was fine with it - and so then he proposed that I fly out to see him when he got to L.A in the April.
(HE'D PRETTY MUCH ALREADY BOOKED THE TICKETS)

I was shocked and soooooo excited at the thought of that, I OBVIOUSLY said yes!!!

And so April came around, and I flew to Los Angeles to meet him!
(This was also my first time flying by myself and I think I did amazingly well *pats self on back*)

It was honestly the most magical 12 days I have ever experienced. Not only did I get to see my gorgeous boyfriend after far too long of being apart, but we were in CALIFORNIA!

Having never been to America before, I clearly wanted to do some super touristy things.
Such as...

EAT AT THE CHEESECAKE FACTORY!
EXPLORE MUSCLE BEACH & VENICE BEACH BOARDWALK!
SHOP AT SEPHORA, OF COURSE!



EXPLORE HOLLYWOOD & BEVERLY HILLS!
We also took the bus up to San Francisco, which was AMAZING!

SMOOCHIN' AT THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE!
UNION SQUARE, SF, FROM THE TOP FLOOR OF MACY'S!
And we did soooo much more! 

If you couldn't already tell, I had the most amazing time and I just wanted to document this experience via blog post so I can remember all of these memories.

Carl, I cannot thank you enough for giving me the most magical trip of my life. I will always treasure every memory that we made.

I honestly felt so comfortable and at home in L.A, I reaaaally hope I one day get to go back! If you live there it's safe to say I'm beyond stupidly jealous of you.

Thank you for reading!

Love, H x
