About

Hi, I’m Lauren.

I’m a 31 year old expat, living in the U.K.  I’m from a small town in New Jersey, but I now call England home.  No, this isn’t one of those “I quit my day job and moved halfway across the world on a whim” stories. Hahahahaha, I WISH it were that simple.  That, my friends, is a post in and of itself. Anyway…

I moved to London officially in February 2018 to be with my husband, after A LOT of back and forth trips.  We welcomed our first child, a feisty little boy, in December 2019 and have recently welcomed our second little man into the family in November 2022!  We call beautiful Yorkshire home and are loving our life up here.

I started a blog once, a few years ago, and it was a huge failure – I mean, obviously, since you’re reading THIS blog.  To be transparent, it was my fault, as I didn’t do things properly, and didn’t have the time needed to invest in it. Lesson learned.  Now that I work remotely (and literally spend what feels like my ENTIRE life in front of the computer at home), I figured now was the time to try and start things up again.  Things have definitely picked up over the past few years, and I’m so thankful for the opportunities this blog has given me.

I hope you enjoy reading and come back for more 🙂

xx Lauren
