Is it safe to come out yet?!
Do you wake up some days feeling like life would be a whole lot simpler if we destroyed all our devices/social media, and had a significantly smaller amount of people in our life?! Maybe even going as far as throwing out all material possessions and buying a campervan or boat to live in? (a nice one with […]
Dear 32year old Ames!
LESSONS FROM YOUR 32ND YEAR ???????????? Moving in with Lils is a good arrangement for now – she gets her favourite carer, you get a roof over your head. Living back in Surbiton is as wholesome as it is bizarre! ???? Lils deteriorates and is soon moving in with Mads. You make it your job […]
Dear 31year old Ames!
LESSONS FROM YOUR 31ST YEAR ???? These last few months on ships really have been nothing less than an epic adventure – landing some of the best itineraries in 2x 7month contracts!

Dear 30year old Ames!
LESSONS FROM YOUR 30TH YEAR ????️✨ It’s hard to believe how much you’ve packed in to this last year Ames, let alone your last decade ????

Dear 27year old Ames!
LESSONS FROM YOUR 27TH YEAR ???? Not letting up on life-rollercoaster riding then Ames?! ???? 18months in to a whirlwind romance, you’re taking a very grown up step and buying your first house. In purely practical terms – it makes total sense. Albeit your understading of the word “mortgage” right now would be hazarding a […]
Dear 26year old Ames!
LESSONS FROM YOUR 26TH YEAR ???????? In the words of @katyperry (future bestie and life mentor), this year was definitely “never the way I planned” following a plan for a ‘year’ of travel.

Dear 25year old Ames!
LESSONS FROM YOUR 25TH YEAR ✈️???? From limited photos to having this ‘Bookface’ website thing to document every breath during a somewhat monumental year… ???? ???? Thinking ‘X’ pounds was enough to survive a year was a little naive – yay for access to further 0% credit cards in the UK. But everything for a […]
