Finding a Perfect Travel Style

By

I recently took almost three weeks off work – to spend some time in one of my favourite countries, check out a new city and chill in London. By the time my boyfriend and I found ourselves in Hungary, I was feeling quite relaxed. If only work weren’t necessary – but that’s a fantasy that…

What Happens When You Return to Yoga After a Year

By

My body is in constant agony. A slave to an office job, I spend up to and over 60 hours a week sitting on my backside, hunched over my desk. I wake up every morning with aching shoulders, tight hammies and a sore bottom. I am only 26 years old, but often, I feel ancient….
