HI! welcome to Elisha blogs!

Hi, I’m Elisha! A twenty-something girl from Harrogate. Made in Yorkshire, influenced by everything the world has to offer.

I enjoy writing about Northern lifestyle and I love travelling! I am on a mission to find the fun in every-day life and have a specific passion for the theatre, fun days out, amazing food (especially brunch), spa days, writing (duh!), a little bit of fashion, dogs, and drinking cocktails. I hope you enjoy reading my blog!

Ad | Don't mind me, I'm just sipping the most expe Ad | Don't mind me, I'm just sipping the most expensive glass of wine I'll probably ever have. 🍷 This month at @theivyharrogate they have a special wine list of Bordeaux wines by the glass and I can now say that I have drunk some of the best wine in the world - in the top 3% of the world's wines - whaaaaat?! My little wine loving heart was happy 😍 Keep an eye on my stories for mine and Jonny's wine tasting observations: 'The wino vs the novice' and see whether this glass of wine is really worth £55... 👀 The Bordeaux wines are only available by the glass until the 30th September so run, don't walk, to The Ivy to try them out!
Today is World Gratitude Day and I feel like I can Today is World Gratitude Day and I feel like I can genuinely be grateful for so many things in my life right now. ❤ I am grateful to finally be living the kind of life I want with BALANCE. ❤ I am grateful for these beautiful sunny September days we are having at the moment. ☀️ ❤ I am grateful for this new fluffy rug I bought which is the SOFTEST THING I'VE EVER SAT ON! ❤ I am grateful that I can work from home and wear comfy clothes whenever I want. ❤ I am grateful for how close my family is, especially how we have grown closer since the pandemic. ❤ I am grateful for my two utterly gorgeous nieces. ❤ I am grateful for my beautiful home. ❤ I am grateful for my supportive boyfriend (but don't tell him or he'll get a big head 😉). ❤ I am grateful for my friends who have helped me through the tough times. ❤ I am grateful for my health during these scary pandemic times. Long may my good health continue! ❤ I am grateful for podcasts that have helped inspire and change my mindset and life like @sophiecliff @goaldiggerpodcast @talktwenties @lawofattractionchangedmylife @jossstone 's 'A Cuppa Happy' 📱 What are you most grateful for today? I'd love to know!
Feeling so damn happy right now. Quitting my full Feeling so damn happy right now. Quitting my full-time job with no plan in place was a bloomin' big risk, but let me tell you, the opportunities that have come to me since have been in abundance. I wake up each day and am so grateful for the life I live. I am proud, I am fulfilled and I am HAPPY! Boy, does it feel good to feel happy and thriving after so long of feeling lost, downtrodden and with zero self-confidence. Working on yourself and investing in yourself is honestly the best gift you can give yourself. Not that there is an end point and you ever stop working to be a better you, but putting in the work pays off. This time last year, I was in a really low place and I knew that it was crunch time for change. I wish last years me could see me now to know that it would all be OK. ❤

Today marks 1 year since I got the keys to my firs Today marks 1 year since I got the keys to my first house 🏠🔑 Owning my own house was something that I always wanted but never believed I could do. Before the pandemic I was saying to myself "I can't buy on my own, I don't earn enough and nobody will give me a mortgage". As soon as lockdown lifted I said: "I WILL get my dream house and a mortgage" and I went all out viewing houses and flats. This little gem could not be more perfect for me and I got it in the most lucky circumstances. I fully believe I manifested this house and opportunity. This house is more than what I thought I could afford and she is a little beauty. Since this time last year, I have transformed every room (bar the bathroom) plus the garden, including putting new floors in and a brand new kitchen. I even scraped the ceilings (the WORST job ever! 🤣) 👩‍💻 I have created my own little office space which I now work from home in. 🪴 It has been my sanctuary during a third long lockdown. 🥰 And every time I walk in to my house I feel so happy and proud that I made my dream a reality. (And with nobody else's input telling me how to decorate it 😉) I technically had been trying to buy a house for over 2 years and it was such a stressful process but the universe knows what's right for you. It will only give you what you truly want and need. Thank you universe, thank you dad, mum, and my sisters @rhee_charlice_ and @marissaclarefitt for all your help doing up the house, not to mention my bro @bigjoelyboy for helping me transport my bed, and thank you to me for believing in myself again. 1 year down, 29 years of a mortgage left to go 🤣
