    September 2022 Money Review

    October 4, 2022 /

    One month down, only eleven left of my gap year! Crazy how fast time flies when you are professionally unemployed πŸ˜‚ But the end of the month means only one thing on this blog – time for a September money review! September did not really go to plan but I made the most of the situation. I ended up staying an extra two weeks with my parents because a housesit got cancelled. This was one I had organised with a friend so I wasn’t covered by any guarantee like I am when I housesit through Trusted Housesitters. But this meant for a very cheap month. This will be the last…

    July 2022 Money Review

    August 2, 2022 /

    Here we are again! Another month gone, another money roundup. Time for a July money review. Scary how fast this year is going by – soon it will be Christmas again!  What is a money review? It is where I share reflections on my finances from the previous month and detail every penny in and out. I find doing this at least monthly is a good way to stay connected to your finances. Plus, I love reading them back in a couple of months! Why do I share this? I know it might seem weird to share this on the internet, but I truly believe in creating the type of content…

    June 2022 Money Review

    July 13, 2022 /

    June has simultaneously felt like both the longest and the shortest month ever. I cannot get my head around the fact that we are already half way through 2022, how is that even possible!! However, it is one of my favourite months of the year as it’s my birthday, the days are longer and brighter and the sun occasionally makes an appearance. But without further ado, lets get into it! What is a money review? It is where I share reflections on my finances from the previous month, and detail every penny in and out.

    June 21, 2022 /

    Well what do we have here? A May money review! It’s about time πŸ˜‚. It’s only taken me about three weeks to finally sit down and write this up but you know what they say better late than never right! What is a money review?
