Christmas is really upon us, being in Turkey for the whole of November has meant that Christmas has not crept up on me but jumped out at me yelling "BOOOOO"
Christmas present shopping is something I enjoy if I have ideas and I ventured out yesterday and was seriously disappointed. There is nothing more unoriginal that those awful box sets from Boots, I just wish we weren't so focused on designer brands and spending LOTS on gifts and instead just focus on something small and incredibly meaningful. That was my theme this year, meaningful.
The Turk and I have agreed to not exchange gifts as the amount of money we have spent on flights to see one another is a gift in itself, and I love that. I did however buy him a christmas jumper, slippers and underpants...its his first Welsh Christmas so it was a must.
I move into my new place this weekend and then he joins me soon after that (he has decided to surprise me and not tell me when his flight is) and then I have a month to show him around my country! yay!
Very thankful this year that my family are healthy and I have found a great person to spend my time with :)
