Staying Safe on Dating Apps

If you read my previous post, you'll know I spoke about dating apps like Tinder. So, I'm following that on with this second post about staying safe on dating apps and with online dating websites.

I've seen and heard so many stories recently about online and app dating going wrong. Most of the time in the circumstances I read about, there was no way in the first instance, the person could've known their experience would turn out that bad. 

Europe 2017 Diaries. Amsterdam is just bikes!

Amsterdam

It was hard to believe, by the time we got to Amsterdam that 14 days were nearly over. It was hard to think we'd started in France and were ending in Amsterdam in a couple of days.

Edam

We started in a small town called Edam, famous for Edam cheese with a Cheese tasting and Clog demonstration! The cheese was yum. We tried so many different flavours from smoked ham to paprika to nettle, which surprisingly tasted quite nice. I was so tempted to buy every flavour but knew once I'd come home it just wouldn't taste the same as abroad.

Munich

We didn't have long in Germany but spent some time in Munich. Unfortunately, I got a little ill while I was there and had to spend some time in bed. 

Munich very much reminded me of London - modern and lively.

What I've Learnt from Volunteering

Since I've not been working, I've been spending my time volunteering in a local charity shop. I was never made to spend 24/7 at home and so volunteering in my free time seemed like that logical thing to do.

I loved it! But finished a few weeks ago because I have been offered a new job and then planned to go on my travels. 

However, working and volunteering in a charity shop definitely taught me a few things...

Europe 2017 Diaries. All about Italian food and architecture.

Italy
Next country was Italy. And of all the stops, this was the country I was looking forward to the most by FAR! Not just because I LOVE PIZZA but because I'd heard so much about Italy and the architecture and the beauty of the country. 

Pisa
First came Pisa... home of the Leaning Tower of Pisa of course. It was just a quick stop but if you're in Italy it's something you have to see right? 

It still baffles me that it used to be straight but was 'put back' to leaning...
