    Having a blog break/Started a Substack

    Hello.

    It’s been a long time since I wrote a post on here and felt I owed you an update since 2021/22. I now no long work in my local library and looking actively for another volunteer position local.

    I have decided this will sadly be my last post on this blog for a while, however you will be able to keep reading my content already posted and archives.

    Also just incase you want to keep in touch via reading my work online, I have created recently an educational and writing based account.

    I didn’t come to this conclusion lightly but I decided a Stubstack account is capable, in the long run, of furthering my career and education.

    For those of you that are unaware of Substack , it is a website for people to join and read articles. Some free, some paid in a monthly subscription. My article to start up with will be free.

    For those who don’t know my future goals, I am interested to a studying for. BA or Bsc degree and a job as a paid fiction writer from home.

    I want to thank all my readers and people who have been reading my 5 year journey into blogging so far, and will be here when I come back!

    My cousin went to Rome – why I’m jealous

    A few months ago I found out my favourite cousin went to Rome. I’m going to tell you why I got jealous & what I plan to do to change it. It’s not all bad, honest!

    When I found out that my cousin (unnamed) went to Rome, I got excited and started sending her cool phases in Italian that I thought would be useful. I thought she would tell me all about the tourist attractions and where to or not go!

    Although she was polite when we spoke next she didn’t tell me anything about her travels… I started to get jealous. Why couldn’t I go instead? I’m the one who has been learning Italian right? shouldn’t I go? (damn expired not-used passport!).

    This is when I realised that everyone around me is doing whatever they like! Whether it be children, marriage, moving in together or just travelling the world. And I am stuck in a rut where I haven’t done anything spectacular in, well, EVER.

    I started to think to myself… what is on MY bucket list? what do I want to do with my life? Why have I never been travelling? I finally came up with ideas which I thought about before

    let me know what your plans are for the next 10 more years …also can you recommend some interesting places in Italy & Sicily to write about – not the usual: Veneto, Florenza, Napoli o Roma!
