Peterborough with my favourite Danish 💗

It finally happened again! I got to spend the day with my favourite exchange student! Andrea! She lives a bit further away, which is a shame and we don't get to meet that much but she is always there for me and she is just the best! 💗. After 6 weeks we finally met again! And we had such an amazing time!! We went to Peterborough and of course we've done some shopping! We also found that amazing Cafe we absolutely fell in love with and ate some brunch. She went for the Avocado Brunch and I had some delicious pancakes! It just looked amazing and we knew this would be our new favourite! 

The cool thing about this place is, you take seat and look through the menu. You take your table number and order whatever you want at the bar and pay. After a little while your food gets served. I just think it's something different and it's so cool! 

After a while shopping we went to "Bill's" to eat some pudding and OH MY GOD this pudding was amazing! I went for a hot chocolate brownie and it came with some ice cream and I just fell in love! 

You have the right to be hungry now because it just looks amazing! I can't wait to do that again! 

Also I want to try and start a healthy way of eating. I don't want to loose weight or anything, I just realised that I'm so much fitter when I eat healthy and I'll be less tired and more happy. I've had sleepless nights since I'm here and I'm trying to figure the reason for it. It may be it, maybe not. I'll try it. 
I'll try to catch up soon again I'm now going to relax for a week as it is half term now. Finally! 
Bye for now xx

homesickness and other thoughts

It's been a while, I know! I'll start straight away, two weeks ago I've been homesick for the first time since I'm here. My friend came over with her boyfriend -her hostfamily doesn't really allow her to hang out with him, it's a long story - because we all wanted to go to Cambridge the next day. So they both stayed at my house. Well it was not really fun for me. My friend started treating me like I'm not even there and her Boyfriend has been rude! He took food without asking, which you should do when you're at someone else's house for the first time, and they just left me out. I became angry with her and went to bed early and everything. I was so annoyed! The next day when I went down stairs for breakfast they both sat at the table and my friend took a shower earlier. Then her boyfriend stood up and said "I'll go for a shower now". My host mum sat at the table with them and he didn't bother to ask if it's okay. It annoyed me so bad, so I told them I won't go with them, cause I've had enough being ignored and treated like sh*t! I didn't tell them the real reason tho. So I spend the day at home watching some good old friends on the TV. Well so as you can read that wasn't the best weekend for me and I felt horrible. So I became homesick. I wanted to be home with my family and friends. It was such a weird feeling I can't explain! 
I thought about what I'm doing, and I realised I'm so far from home and I miss my family and friends but this exchange is something incredible, it offers me so many chances and I learn so much from it! I can be myself which I felt I couldn't sometimes in my hometown. I always thought too much about what everyone else will think if I do this if I wear that. I just wasn't myself. But I learned here to just not care. If it makes me happy I'll do it. If I like it, I'll wear it. People should like me for who I actually am! And I can't wait to live how I want to back home. I can't wait to show everyone ME!
