I visited Bamburgh Castle this week and it absolutely blew away my expectations. What do you mean there's a castle on the beach!? 🤩 I highly recommend a visit, it's so worth it!

I finally got chance to go to the Medieval Women In their Own Words exhibition @britishlibrary.bsky.social recently and I have so many thoughts on it! Overall...it was fantastic. There were so many iconic artifacts in this exhibition! I highly recommend this to everyone!

Visiting Chatsworth on a crisp winter's day was beautiful (the hot chocolates at the Christmas market were also amazing, 10/10 would recommend)

After the busyness of attending my first in-person conference and a quick trip away, I'm ready to carry on writing and reading! Feels good to get these ideas out of my head and onto paper #phdlife

This afternoon I had the privilege of speaking at the @socialhistsoc.bsky.social annual conference about my research on late 19thc social movements and their impact on the monarchy

Visited Birmingham library's archive collection yesterday and took a look at their Shakespeare room. What I read by Charles Cattell was so interesting and I can't wait to share more on 19thc republicanism...👀🗞

3. Gondola in Venice
4. Museo Nazionale Villa Pisani

Went to the the Spies, Lies & Deception exhibition at the Imperial War Museum over the weekend and it is fantastic. So many interesting yet tragic stories were included. I'd definitely recommend going if you can!
