2 years of genocide. 67,000 Palestinian lives lost and countless more, unrecorded, trapped beneath the rubble. Over 20,000 children murdered. More than 169,000 injured. Lives, homes, families, hopes, dreams, dignity and freedom obliterated in this endless, abhorrent nightmare. Live streamed to us all. Yet Palestine still stands! And we still stand with Palestine! 🇵🇸 Proud to be home and see Naarm out in force, once again, opposing evil. Stop the genocide. End the occupation. FREE FREE PALESTINE! 🍉🍉🍉
Diabolically grateful for this adventure and the lil pilgrim fam I made along the way. 370km through Portugal and Spain’s backyards, coastline and forests. Don’t think I’d ever really be able to put into words what my first Camino gave me (inner peace and a toe-hawk, which is like a Mohawk but made of skin and on your toe), but I will treasure it and the friends I made forever. 🇵🇹🥾🇪🇸💕
Facts about Albania: 1) She is fockin STONNIN! 2) If you want a hot choccy, be sure to order a hot “cacao”, otherwise you WILL be given a mug of goo. 3) Under 50’s attire is, exclusively, active wear/tracksuit sets. Over 50’s dress dapper as fuck!! 🎩🇦🇱
2024 was actually ICONIC SWEETIE! Said goodbye to those I love, along with my comfort zone. Travelled to seven new countries, survived Hostel Max, saw my favourite song live, reconnected with old friends and fell in love with new ones, got nude a lot, danced, cried, ate, climbed, swam, biked, hiked, fought wasps, taught body builders to grape vine, told stories on a stage, laughed my nippys off, been tired on airplanes, been exhilarated on airplanes and finally landed in London, where I’ve never felt so lost and deeply alone in my entire life…..but then I was like “oh hey girliepop what cha doin down there?”and found myself again 🙃 and turns out it’s v important to get lost and lonlafied sometimes so you can learn to be your own lil life raft. My most valuable lesson yet. Eternally grateful for this life and all the superb humans in it 🩷 Much excite to see how I can terrify myself in 2025 🤡
