I honestly can’t believe it’s nearly holiday time again!
There’s something about getting the suitcase out that makes it suddenly feel real. I’ve been thinking about this holiday for ages, and now I’m actually starting to prepare for two weeks in Tenerife.
I’m so ready for it.
Life can get so busy with work, everyday stresses and everything else going on that sometimes you don’t realise how much you need a break until it gets close. I’m looking forward to switching off, enjoying the sunshine and just having some time to enjoy myself.
Of course, before the relaxing can start, there’s the packing!
And if you know me, you’ll know I’ll probably pack far too much. 😂 I’ll put something in the suitcase because “I might wear it”, even though deep down I know it probably won’t leave the suitcase for the entire two weeks.
Then I’ll unpack something because the case is too heavy… only to put it back in five minutes later!
But that’s all part of the excitement for me.
I’m getting all my summer clothes ready, choosing my evening outfits, sorting toiletries, checking I’ve got enough sun cream and making sure I’ve remembered all those little things you always seem to forget until you’re already at the airport.
One thing I definitely won’t forget is my phone because I absolutely love taking photos. 📸
Whenever I go away, I take so many pictures. Some people might think it’s too many, but I love looking back at them. Photos bring back memories of places, people, funny moments and experiences that you might otherwise forget.
I’m already thinking about the photos I’m going to take in Tenerife — beautiful sunsets, beaches, days out, evening meals and probably plenty of silly ones too!
But this holiday isn’t just about getting away somewhere sunny.
For me, it’s about having that little break from normal life.
Working in retail can be busy and tiring, especially when you’re constantly around people and always have something that needs doing. Sometimes I just need that chance to switch off from work, forget about everything for a while and simply be me.
No uniform.
No rushing around.
No worrying about what needs doing next.
Just sunshine, memories and enjoying the moment.
I’m looking forward to waking up in Tenerife and thinking, what are we doing today? Maybe it’ll be a day exploring, maybe it’ll be around the pool, or maybe it’ll be one of those days where we don’t really have a plan at all.
Sometimes they’re the best days.
So, with the countdown getting shorter, I’m getting more and more excited.
I’ve still got plenty to organise, probably far too much to pack and I’ll definitely check my passport about 100 times before leaving the house. 😂
But soon I’ll be on that plane, leaving everyday life behind for two weeks.
Tenerife… I’m nearly ready for you! ☀️🌴✈️
Here’s to sunshine, laughter, lots of photos and making memories I’ll hopefully be talking about for years to come. ❤️
