That thing is a programme/scheme called Travel Blog Success (I refuse to … Continue Reading
… or at least, Happy New Year in advance! 🤗 🎊 🥂 🎉 Okay, so I figured I’d better write this post before I get knee deep in champagne, prosecco, gin and whatever else the driver from Amazon delivers (I went really lazy this year – didn’t even leave the house to go shopping).
