As a teacher it is undeniable that one of this wonderful profession's greatest perks is the school holidays! I adore every aspect my job (well almost!) but it is not always easy and I'm sure that many of you will know how well deserved our crazy amount of days off are (or as my friend put it "overtime!"). This blog is my means of sharing how I choose to spend my "overtime": by exploring our beautiful world! Please read on to follow my footprints, out of my classroom, and into my adventures...
