About me

 

Hi! My name is Holly, welcome to Be More Lobster!

Food. Travel. Crafts. That’s what this blog is about. Random mix maybe, but collectively they are some of my favourite things (in no particular order!)

I started this blog so that I could put some words to all the pictures that I’m taking. Yes, I am one of those people that takes pictures of EVERYTHING… but… in past few years, I have accumulated over 13,000 photos on my phone, and apart from some posts on Instagram, that’s where they stay. On my phone. Where no-one sees them except me, and usually only when I have to go through them to figure out which ones to delete to free up storage space…

I worried that I was in danger of being one of those people that just takes pictures without enjoying the moment… But, on self-reflection, I do actually enjoy the moment – it’s just that I also like taking pictures. And I like looking back through them and remembering the good times. To marvel at how amazing something looked or felt like in that moment, and to have a picture to remember it by.

And now through this blog, I hope to share those pictures with you so that they’re not just lost forever in my phone memory. In fact, writing has turned out to be really therapeutic for me. I thought that after a long day in the office, the last thing that I would want to do is to turn on the laptop and do more typing. But actually, putting my thoughts into words brings each memory, moment and project into sharper focus, and I love it.
