What It's Like When it is Summer in the Rest of the World!

You may or may not know that I live in New Zealand and it is currently smack bang in the middle of winter. It is freezing and I am continuously chilled to the bone by the strong winds. As larger countries like US and UK are currently having their summer I always see many videos of YouTuber's showing the scenery and it makes me wish it was summer! 

All of the Summer Essentials and Look books just make me want to sit on my lawn and sunbathe. But as this would result in hypothermia... I resist. 

In those brief moments when the sun does come out life is amazing and I am instantly happy, but... I have realised in my life time that this is just a trick by the clouds to make you think it is safe do go out but actually a plot to make me get wet. 

Of course I know that winter is not always bad that your attitude towards it may be the problem but when I see the sunny beaches and essentials, I can't help but wonder why I'm not sitting in the sun relaxing.

If you live in NZ or it is Winter where you live I hope you can relate to my problem!

The Truths of Living in the Southern Hemisphere in the Christmas Holidays!

As it is coming up to Christmas I have been looking back at past Christmas' and have come to realize that their are both perks and troubles of living in the Southern Hemisphere, specifically New Zealand, at Christmas time. I thought I would share 5 Perks and  5 Troubles with you! Perks 1. It's always warm.  In New Zealand December is almost the middle of summer which guarantees Christmas Day to be sunny and hot. I have never lived through any Christmas Day in New Zealand where it rains! This great weather is very helpful with celebrations! 2. Cold drinks are amazing!  When you have been sitting out in the sun for hours on end and are given a Coca-Cola straight from the chilly bin, your face will light up. When I was little the chilly bin also served as a fun game of who can keep there hand submerged for the longest. Even as I get older this is an intriguing game! 3.
