Keeping Up With Juliette

Hello everybody and welcome back to my blog, Recently, I watched Zoella's vlog where she explained that she felt like she wasn't being her true self and felt like she couldn't express her true views on things in case someone took it the wrong way and found it offensive. She claims that she sits and re-watches her videos about 3 times just to make sure everything she said in that was okay. That makes me really sad because I am seeing more of that nowadays. An opinion may not be factually correct but all of the greatest ideas all started with one simple opinion. That didn't mean that everyone agreed with it because they had the choice not to.  But because one person was brave enough to share their opinion, that view, changed the world. I was going to write up another power of writing post but I thought this was more worthwhile. Your opinion could have the possibility of being really stupid but it could also have the possibility of being really great so don't ...

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, I challenged myself a lot throughout my holiday in Croatia. Not only did I face my fear of heights but I also faced my fear of the ocean I guess! I love to swim but I think, like most people, I dislike swimming where I cannot see the bottom. I thought in Croatia, the water would be really murky but it's actually really clear. I thought I would be scared but the water was actually quite inviting.  At the start of our stay, my mum told us about her travels and how she always collected a stone from each place she's been to, like Switzerland etc. Since it was my first time being in Croatia, I wanted to do the same. We were sat on the beach talking so I tried looking for a stone then and there but they didn't feel special  (Yes I know, very deep!), so I decided to wait a while since we still had two weeks left. Towards the end of our stay, we went to the beach of Rabac since it was our favourite beach to go to and w...

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, What does it mean to be a full-time dancer?- To work 25 hours per week. This post was obviously inspired by the amazing Claudia Dean. She is an amazing dance coach who has trained at the Royal Ballet School. If you would like to check her out, she has a YouTube channel, which I will link below along with some of her other links. Recently, she posted a video about becoming full-time at a young age, and the risks that come with it. As Claudia stated in her video, this message about becoming fulltime at a young age needs to be spread to the next generation of dancers. And, as a part of the next generation of dancers, I think its really important that I share my point of view on this topic as a helpful guideline to young dancers and choreographers. As some of you may know, if you've been a long-term follower of my blog, is that I went to a pretty rubbish dance school where I practiced Jazz for a year. I hated it because no...

Hello everybody and welcome back to my blog, After being beached out and after having basically visited the places we wanted to, we woke up one morning unable to decide what we wanted to do that day. So my dad took to Facebook and found in a little town where children and adults were given the opportunity to zip-line over a canyon. Me and my sister said yes, since it was a rare opportunity. Subsequently, we packed up our things, and left to go zip-lining. On the way there, we stopped off at a vineyard, since my mum,my grandad, and my dad all wanted to taste some wine. My parents asked if there was a good place to eat at the town and the owner of the vineyard recommended the hotel restaurant. After that, we set off for the town. Admittedly, it wasn't quite as beautiful as some of the venetian towns we have visited before and it had an ex-Soviet Union vibe to it. Unable to decipher where we were, we decided it was a good idea to walk around. In the process of doing so, we ma...

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, At about the beginning of our stay in Croatia, in the evening, me and my family went to eat dinner at this amazing restaurant by the sea in Rabac. It was really nice because we drove there and nothing was too difficult. A few days later, my parents found out that there was a public footpath going from Labin all the way to Rabac. So, a couple of days later, we put on our trainers and gear and set off to Rabac by foot. It wasn't as hard as we'd expected because for the majority of the time, we were under the trees and away from the blazing Croatian sun. But we still got a lot of exercise in! Starting off our walk! Nearing the end! This was the view from the restaurant where we ate lunch. The food was great. I had a massive pizza with a bunch of different cheeses with chorizo. My parents thought I wouldn't be able to finish it all but I was so hungry from all that walking and swimmi...

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, As you may know from my previous blog post, a few days ago, me and my family went to the coastal town of Rovinj just to look around. We were walking by the sea looking at the amazing views when a sales man starting talking Croatian to us, obviously thinking that we could speak Croatian, when we couldn't. He soon found out that we were english so he started speaking english to us. We listened on thinking he would start talking about something that wasn't interesting but then he started talking about an amazing boat ride, jumping into the ocean,eating sardines, and visiting the surrounding islands that we could do for a very affordable price in one day. We accepted his offer to go on this boat ride along with many other people and it was a decision we never regretted taking! Leaving Rovinj. Going past the surrounding islands. Moving further away. Island number 1. I saw a liza...
