Taking a break and off on my hols to sunny Los Angeles!

I'll be jetting off on my hols today for over a week of sun and fun in sunny Los Angeles! Never been before, so going to see the sights and enjoy my time in the Golden State. 

I have got a few blog posts scheduled, but of course, this means I won't be able to post as regularly when I'm away, and anything I do manage to post will be dependent on how good the local wifi connection is - it'll be torture!

I will be posting photos up on my Instagram, Facebook and Twitter during the week, so if you follow me on Social Media, you have been warned about the #HolidaySpam!

See you in over a week!
