Hey! I’m Kirstie!
Hi! I’m so glad you’re here. I’m Kirstie (she/her) and I’m a 20-something Northern gal living in Manchester with my boyfriend, Greg, and mini dacshund, Sprinkle.
I’m a lover of the outdoors, 80’s/90’s music, fruity cocktails, apple cider, lazy Sundays and travelling the world as much as possible.
I’m a bit of a weirdo, I don’t take myself too seriously and I’m a complete enthusiast in being completely YOU – being ‘normal’, traditional or what someone else wants you to be isn’t worth it.

I’m not one for taking myself too seriously, the only things I’m serious about are tasty food, good music and strong drinks! I love to be colourful in all aspects of my life, having a ‘beige personality’ and outlook is boring and not for me, so it’s safe to say I love fun colours and being a bit weird because being weird is fun. I love to have fun, and for me, fun is a lot of things. Sometimes it’s doing nothing on a lazy Sunday and listening to good music, reading a book or playing a game, and sometimes it’s going for a hike, being outside or going out for drinks and a dance.
I’m a big hugger, a big smiler and a huge fan of laughing – those big belly laughs that have you creasing, bring out the double chins and have you wheezing. I’m also a big cryer – a good song, a tv show, a film, even an advert can get me sobbing which always gets my boyfriend, Greg, laughing at me. I’m a big Harry Potter nerd and I’m a proud Slytherin (with Ravenclaw being my secondary house).
I think you can be quirky and cool, colourful and stylish and not have to compromise. I don’t take myself too seriously and love to live in either a good pair of flip-flops or fluffy socks… is there even an in-between?
Whenever I don’t know how I’m feeling (or I’m bored) I turn on the music and sing too loud, and admittedly out of tune, and always feel so much better after singing my heart out and having a bit of a random dance, even though I can’t dance either. You can bet that I’ll be on the dancefloor when the music starts at your wedding though!
I’m newly addicted to collecting vinyl records, and I’m a fairy-light hoarder, plant mum, flower obsessed & self-confessed weirdo, and I think being ‘normal’ is boring and being ‘ordinary’ isn’t an option.

Meet Honey! KGP Side-Kick & Professional Cuddler
My KGP side-kick, cheerleader and chief hugger!
Honey is a professional cuddler, award-winning snoozer and all-around certified attention hog. She’s cute and she bloody knows it – often found looking at me with her big brown eyes and asking for more snuggles, more treats and even more attention.
She’s the light of my life (not that I’ll ever admit that to my partner, Greg, even though he knows it’s true) and she has the most gentle, happy and loving little personality ever.
I’m a little obsessed with her and if you were to look through my camera roll, you’d see mostly a gallery shrine of her! (With a few funny and unflattering pictures of myself for the LOLs)
Because I’m obsessed with my dog…
A little list of Sprinkle’s favourite things…
1. Food
2. Crunchy and squeaky toys
3. ‘Special’ doggy treats
4. Countryside/beach walks
