Hello lovely readers!

Welcome to your safe place. A place you can spill whatever’s on your mind – both good and bad. What’s going on in your world? We want to hand the writing over to you; tell us everything.

“Who wants to know?” you collectively chime. I’m Laura. I’m a kiwi ex-pat (cue the sheep jokes), magazine lover, book fiend, pop-culture genius and I unashamedly love One Direction.

So what’s been going on this week?

Me hiking the Abel Tasman; one of the places I’ll take my friends in NZ.

Best (there are a few):

The absolute best was going to the First Aid Kit concert on Tuesday night. If you haven’t heard about them, they’re two Swedish sisters that have the most amazing voices. Their harmonies are out of this world.

This is my second week interning at Mamamia, something I’ve dreamed about for the longest time. The women that work here are so intelligent, strong and confident; you get inspired as soon as you walk into the office.

I also made plans with a few of my friends to do a road trip around NZ at the end of the year! I can’t wait to show them how beautiful the Hobbit-land is.

Worst:

My best friend from NZ rang me in tears to say that her beloved cat, Shadow, had been put down. It was heartbreaking to hear how upset she was and know that there was nothing I could do. It’s moments like those I wish teleportation was a thing that existed.

Enough from me. What’s going on in your world?
