A little over a month ago, I had the pleasure of embarking on my first work trip with Lush. A number of us from head office trekked across the pond to be a part of the Lush Showcase, one of the most unique experiences many of us had ever witnessed.
After the showcase, I did a bit of touring around Manchester. First stop was The John Rylands Library. Note: no ghosts were spotted (much to my dismay).





Next, I made my way to the Northern Quarter for some lunch and to check out the shops.








After a quick jaunt around Manchester, the time had come to jump on the train and head to London, where I was staying with my friend Alyssa for a few days.
My first day in the city, I walked everywhere. I checked out all the hot ticket touristy spots (many of which I had visited on my last trip to London in 2012).












I slowed things down a little on my last day in the UK. I spent the day in Greenwich, sipping coffee and strolling through the park. I checked out the Greenwich observatory and was met with a spectacular view of the city.


















The entire trip was a whirlwind but it was an amazing experience! I spent the entire flight home feeling extremely grateful for everything that has unfolded in my life in the last few months.
