October was a wild one. ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท From chasing Seoul's neon lights to late-night calls to the vet... this month was proof that a lot of life happens, even with a 9-to-5. ๐Ÿ‘‡

This month had it all: crisp morning runs (best time of year to run!) and a trip to the West End to finally see Oliver! But the main event was flying with Finnair to South Korea for a motorsports event. โœˆ๏ธ

I packed every spare minute in Seoul:

๐ŸฏVisited the iconic Starfield Library and the Palace.

๐Ÿฅ I enjoyed wild street photography and ate far too much buttery Salt bread.

๐ŸŒฑVeggie Hack: Found it tough to get food! You must pre-order or seek out local vegan spots.

๐Ÿ•ต๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ finished the month back in London with a blast at the new immersive escape room, Prison Island (DM me for a discount!).

๐Ÿˆโ€โฌ›The Real Life: While away, my little man (my cat) was in the hospital. He's much better now, but it was a scary reminder that life is a balance of big wins and real worries.

This is your reminder that you can have the adventurous career, the jet-setting, and the focused recharge, even when life throws a curveball. What was your biggest highlight this October?

Is your London weekend routine a bit... dull? ๐Ÿฅฑ

I found the ultimate cure for city boredom. ๐Ÿ‘‡

I am a planner, but even I get stuck in a rut doing the same few things in London. When you're busy with the 9-to-5, it's easy to forget how many genuinely unique and immersive experiences are right on our doorstep. ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ

This past weekend, we tried Prison Island, and I'm honestly obsessed.

It was the perfect dose of high-energy fun, 90 minutes of solving 31 different cells! ๐Ÿ”

The best part is the variety: some rooms require a physical challenge ๐Ÿ’ช, others are pure memory tests ๐Ÿง , and the rest are all about how well your team works together ๐Ÿค.

It was competitive, chaotic, and an absolute laugh! We booked easily through the , which is my go-to for finding these hidden gems.

And because I want you to have as much fun as we did, use code REBECCA10 at checkout on Fever for a discount! ๐Ÿฅณ

Don't let the pressure of work kill your weekend fun. Look for unique activities that force you to put your phone away and just enjoy the moment. ๐Ÿ’‚โ€โ™€๏ธ

Tag your team who you'd take to Prison Island! ๐Ÿ‘‡

How to get a long-haul trip without using a single day of annual leave. ๐Ÿ‘‡

I only had a short window for this trip to Seoul, but the real hack was piggybacking onto a work trip. I covered the afternoon I arrived, plus the Saturday and Sunday. Zero annual leave used for this entire adventure! This is what I mean by being strategic.

My plan for the 48-hour extension had to be hyper-efficient.

It included everything from the iconic Starfield COEX Library to the Palace and, of course, two essential trips to Olive Young.

I made sure to use my Gemini AI agent to plan the perfect, vegetarian-friendly route, hitting Plantitude and Vegan Kitchen along the way. Finished off with the best salt bread on Sunday morning. Three days of sights, maximum return. โœˆ๏ธ

Look for opportunities to extend your next work trip! It's the ultimate way to get the long-haul flights covered and turn a business commitment into a mini-break.

What is the most strategic travel hack you've ever pulled off? ๐Ÿค”

Is it too late for a September recap?
Never!

This month was proof you don't need a career break to live a life you love. ๐Ÿ‘‡

I think people forget just how much life you can pack in alongside a 9-to-5.

September was a brilliant mix of smashing goals (hello, half marathon!), treating myself to Londonโ€™s best experiences, and getting out of the city for a proper recharge.

Swipe through to see the highlights!

It was all about making the most of the last of the summer/early autumn, from bottomless brunch to puppy cuddles and hitting a new personal best. This is my kind of life balance.

This is your reminder that you can have both: the job you love and a life full of adventure. Itโ€™s not a compromise; itโ€™s a strategy.

What was your favourite September moment?

The biggest travel myth I hear is that you canโ€™t see the world if you have a 9-to-5. Honestly, thatโ€™s just not true. ๐Ÿ‘‡

I've always had a full-time job, and I've still managed to visit 46 countries. ๐ŸŒโœˆ๏ธ

My strategy is pretty simple: I balance quick, spontaneous weekend trips to Europe with longer, planned vacations. One of the greatest perks of living in the UK is hopping on a plane for a weekend escape! ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

I've also been able to negotiate longer leave for bigger trips, like the 8 weeks I took to travel Europe when I moved here from Australia.

The secret is that you can have a job you love and a life full of travel. Itโ€™s not a compromise; itโ€™s a strategy. ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธโœจ

6 years of marriage and what a ride it's been! ๐ŸŽ‰

What's a better way to celebrate than to look back on all the adventures we've had? ๐Ÿ‘‡

If you know, you know. When you find your person, the weekends get a whole lot more fun and annual leave becomes a strategic game. It's been a whirlwind, and I wouldn't change a thing.

Itโ€™s hard to believe itโ€™s been six years since we said 'I do.'

Since then, weโ€™ve managed to tick off 26 countries together!

Honestly, it's our favourite way to make memories. Here's to all the passports, flights, and travel hacks to come.

Here's to the love that makes every day feel like a holiday. Happy Anniversary! ๐Ÿ’•

Want to fall back in love with your city? This is your sign. โœจ๐Ÿ‘‡

You know how easy it is to get caught up in the commute and the daily grind. This is your reminder that you can be a tourist in your own city to get that 'holiday' feeling back.

It was a busy week, so we decided to hit pause and book the Champagne Experience on the London Eye. With a glass of bubbly and a new perspective, we got a chance to appreciate our city from a different view. It's the perfect way to treat yourself without leaving home.

This is your reminder that you don't always need to book a flight to feel like life's a vacation. Sometimes, all you need is a new perspective and a little celebratory sparkle.
