I was going through my diary a few weeks ago and even though I've still got quite a lot of blog posts planned, I was a bit worried I was going to run out. I wanted to bring in a new sort of series to my blog and I thought that there are actually loads of pictures that I want to share that don't really have a place in any other blog post, so this is where I came up with The Story Behind The Photo. I had no idea what to call it but I suppose that sums up what these posts are going to be about. I think I'm going to do one of these every few weeks or maybe one a month, I haven't decided yet but I'm excited to share some random pictures with you and explain a bit more about them. Some you might have seen before and I might have featured them in other posts and others will be ones I have never shared before!
The photo I've chosen for the first one isn't actually of me but it's of our old flat in Leicester. It's a bit blurry but I really wanted to include it. I don't want all of these to be me just shoving my face on them so some might be of things like this and I thought if you haven't been reading my blog from the beginning, then you might not know I actually used to live in Leicester. I moved there from Sheffield in September 2013 to go to uni and my partner George moved aswell so we lived together in a student flat. I won't go into much detail but I ended up leaving my course, it just wasn't for me, if you want to read more about that, I have a blog post all about it here. We really tried to stay and I was looking for work every single day but over time we realised it just wasn't working so we both moved back to Sheffield and we eventually moved into a flat here. I wanted to talk about this picture because it's actually one of my favourites ever, you can't see that much and to other people it probably doesn't look that great but whenever I look at it I see the building we used to live in and a place we were really happy as a couple. We wanted to live together so much and when we first moved it was literally a dream come true, it was the first place we ever lived together so it's always going to be special for that reason. Leicester itself was such a lovely place and I love the memories we have of walking through the uni campus, and going shopping in Highcross Shopping Centre, and the places we went for meals and even just doing our food shopping together. This photo was actually taken when we went for a walk one night, the sun was just setting and it was a really beautiful walk home. I miss Leicester a lot. It's always going to be a special place for me.
I hope you liked this post, it's something a bit different but I think it's a good way for you find out a bit more about me!
