Since Turning 24 I've Learnt

Sep 14

A few months ago I turned the grand old age of 24, it was the best birthday that I've had in years. I wrote a post about the things that I've learnt in my twenties, which is probably one of my all time favourite posts that I've ever written. I'm always learning new life lessons and here are the things that I've learnt since turning 24.
