Krakow - The Apartment...

With so many photos to share with you, I didn't really know where to start with blogging about Krakow, but I decided to start where we started - the apartment!

Finding this apartment was the best thing that happened to us for this holiday - it was cheap, massive and so central to Krakow - situated bang in the middle of the Old Town and Kazimierz - the Jewish area of the city. It was the perfect mixture of old character with modern features and despite the 6 flights of stairs to get to our floor, it was the perfect base to start and return to every day.

Our street and building - the only pink building on the road.

The living room...

Kitchen...

Bathroom...

Our bedroom...

The apartment was full of lovely features like vintage suitcases and amazing chandeliers which completely enhanced our stay there!

My favouite part though was the guest book that all the previous guests had written in with suggestions for restaurants, bars, days out, which buses to catch etc... a wonderful read for when you have no idea where to start!

If anyone is interested in staying in Krakow and looking into this apartment (its not ours, we rented it, I can send you the link) then drop me an email!

Autumn Home Styling Challenge

A few weeks ago, the lovely Helen from Voucher Codes emailed me about taking part in the Autumn Home Styling Challenge that was being held on the Voucher Codes lifestyle magazine – Most Wanted. As well as writing on the magazine, Helen also has her own lovely blog – Little Doll Face - which I highly recommend, so I was extremely happy and excited when she asked me to take part.

Voucher Codes is a great website to find vouchers for UK based shops - I still think a little bit like a student (even though its been years now!) so any way to save money is always appreciated and I have been on the Voucher Codes mailing list for some time, however I didn’t realise they had a lifestyle magazine and I did spend quite a bit of time reading it once I found it.

I did originally have ideas of blankets, mugs, candles, etc…but my main Autumn crush at the moment is cushions – I love them! I love the variety and how they can instantly create a signature in your house, reflecting your personality through fun and cosy choices without costing a fortune.

I absolutely love the last one - and it came in different colours
it was hard to choose just the one!

A little catch up!

Hey lovelies!! I am back!

I've missed you! But, how well has my little blog been looked after over the last week?? Such a massive thank you to all the lovely ladies who helped me out - Ashley, Adeline, Andrea, Celeste, Clare, Franca, Caren, Allyn, Elizabeth and Megan - please check out their amazing blogs - you might even find a giveaway and a new layout in there... I hope you enjoyed their posts as much as I did!

Krakow was wonderful, amazing, beautiful and completely overwhelming in the best way possible. Of course I now have 50 fujis to scan and 6 films to develop so I won't be posting about it straight away but I am so so so excited about sharing everything with you! Eeep!!
It's going to be amazing!

Also, I came back to over 500 followers!! Wooohooooo! I wish I had something for you all, a giveaway or something - but I'm so unorganised... lol. I honestly am so happy you are all here though and still completely amazed that you've all stuck around! I love you guys!!

I hope you all had an amazing week - I feel so excited to be back to blogging and I can't wait to catch up with everything I've missed :)

My name is Megan and I am easily distracted...

My name is Megan from Time After Tea and I am easily distracted by 'Sunshine'

I have always been a sunshine baby and the warm weather is finally starting to appear in Australia after a very long winter.

Spring and the lead up to Summer pulls me away from my daily routine and makes me want to go and have fun with friends. Here is what distracted me last Summer....

...Travelling to new places....

...Music festivals...

...secret swimming holes...

...and picnics.

I cant wait to see how the sunshine distracts me this year and the what memories will be made.

What weather distracts you?
