Travel Diaries: Wales

*some pictures have been taken by my sister

Restful holidays are something that we all need, to refresh ourselves, find peace, and step away from our busy lifestyles. I always feel most at peace when I'm surrounded by nature; so spending a week in a remote cottage in Wales surrounded by rolling hills, glistening lakes and barren trees, was absolute bliss.

The week gave me time to reflect on what has happened so far this year, what's happening now, and my goals for the remainder of the year. It also gave me time to spend with my family, something that I cherish very much.

Holidays that include exploring different cities is something that I love doing, but after our trip to Wales, I realised that sometimes we need holidays that give us a chance to slow down in the fast-paced world that we live in. A chance to think about things that we wouldn't normally have a chance to think about and to acknowledge all the blessings. To dream and envisage more things for our lives, and remind us to enjoy and live in the moment.
