10 Things I'm Thankful For

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I know, I know, it's an American holiday, but I've always kind of loved the idea of celebrating all the things your thankful for with your friends and family. (Plus the food always looks pretty good too...)

So despite not being American, I thought I'd use the day as an excuse to make a list of all the things I'm thankful for. Because you can never have too much gratitude, can you?

1) My wonderful family. They are the funniest, kindest, most loving clan of people I've ever met and I always feel thankful that they're mine.

2) My friends, who make me feel like the very best version of myself whenever I see them.

3) Sam. He is patient and thoughtful and hard working and believes in me more than I will ever believe in myself.

4) Our beautiful home. It may not be perfect (yet!) but it's ours and it makes me feel so proud everyday.

5) My healthy and able body. I'm not always grateful enough for this, but I know how difficult life could be if I didn't have my health.

6) Books. I will never not be thankful for being able to learn new things and escape to different worlds.

7) Being able to travel. I never feel more "me" than when I'm stomping around a new city or planning another adventure.

8) My job, which challenges me and stretches me. I always feel so privileged to work for one of the most innovative companies in the world.

9) Leeds. I am so lucky to live in such an incredible city and I am so thankful for all of the wonderful friends I have made here.

10) This blog and all you lovely people who read it. Having my own creative outlet is so incredibly important to me and I can't begin to tell you how happy it makes me that people read it and enjoy it.
