Meet Me On The Way ...

Meaning meet us:   
-          Holly and Hannah.  Young (women? – are we allowed to say that yet?) going on 20.
-          1st year of Uni = Check.
-          Enthusiasts for fashion, drinking (we’re working on the classy part.  Neither part-time income allows for full-time cocktails), and culture.  We live by that old work hard, play hard ethic.
-          As we write this, our first blog (from opposite ends of Britain – now that’s teamwork!), I (Holly) am packing up all of my worldly possessions to leave my first year of university, and I (Hannah) am chilling – quite literally, as in chilled to the bone and wrapped within three layers of wool and leather – in the farce of southern summer (i.e. hail).

The Way forward ...
Over the past year we’ve met a lot of beautiful creatures: fantastic, zany – often drunken – people who we are fortunate enough to call friends (including each other, partners-in-crime and now co-bloggers). And we’ve moved *insert cliché here* a step or two upwards on the great ladder of life.
This summer the intention is to keep up the trend as best we can.  We’re emptying our pockets on plane/train tickets and internships.  Fortunately, blogging, photography, beauty and interaction are free.

The Plan:
Away from the hubbub of our new home, cue exuberant city of Edinburgh, Holly’s gallivanting across Europe with a precious Interrail ticket. Hannah’s got an internship with a film production company in Soho. Then we’re colliding again in London - courtesy of the Oliver family - when Holly migrates from Manchester to take on an internship at fashion designer Roksanda Illincic. Should be a pretty good, pretty skint, and pretty hot summer (us naive dreamers refuse to believe there won’t be sun).

So we propose to you, let’s meet each other on the way:  Expect a documentation of everything we love. Enjoy – and contribute! In the vast and easy inbetween of Internet, in the great unknown cities of Europe, in the summer of London’s parks, bars and shops, on the bottom rungs of Career Ladders, going up. Hope to see you around.
