Writing for a friend… Just kidding, I actually did do all this stuff. I’ll admit it. But I wasn’t as lucky as you to have someone writing a post about all the things you should and shouldn’t do while in Dundee to learn from. So, from here on out, if you happen to find […]
Sorry if your field trips as a kid weren’t as life changing as mine. Okay, maybe not life changing, but they may have been what I looked forward to more than anything! Wait, actually I think it was birthday parties, but field trips were a close second… As a kid I clearly remember field trips to […]
About an hour’s train journey away from Dundee, lies a small town called Pitlochry, home to a forest that for a whole month of every year for the past fifteen years turns into a magical light show. This year’s theme was ‘Shimmer’, featuring disco balls, flashing lights, beautiful music and a giant tree fairy. Tickets […]
Well, I have spent nearly 6 weeks in Dundee now. I have seen the city, around the city, some parts of the out skirts. But as a person who is new to the whole European Continent, I really really wanted to discover the country, the continent, and force myself to do stuff I would otherwise […]
As a Kentish girl, born and raised, I spent my summers at the beach at Herne Bay or in little coffee shops to dip out of the sun while doing a spot of shopping in Canterbury. The summers were long awaited but the winters weren’t all that harsh. The leaves changed and welcomed the cool […]

I’m English born and raised, from the county of Kent – often referred to as that bit under London. I left home to come to Dundee for my studies in Art at DJCAD, after completing my A-levels. London was on my doorstep, with theatre and gallery exhibitions a stone’s throw away. But in London you can’t […]
The past couple of weeks have been a bit of a mini-heatwave here in Dundee (sunniest city in Scotland, and all that) so we took full advantage of the sunshine-burning ourselves in the process- and decided to take a wee trip over to St. Andrews. St Andrews is a tourist hotspot and well-known throughout the […]
As I’ve said before, we are on a mission this summer to do as many exciting activities as possible on my, seemingly, very rare days off from work. So as I had two days off in a row, we decided to go camping of all things. Having grown up in Glasgow and being relatively adverse […]
Despite Dundee seeming to be a pretty small city (so small in fact that when I told a classmate that you could drive from one side of Dundee to the other in 15 – 20 minutes depending on traffic, her eyes widened in shock!), there are frequent opportunities for good nights out. There is already […]
