Bournemouth Beauty

Whilst walking along the beach in Bournemouth I realised that I really have been taking this beautiful town for granted. Previously living in a city meant I was constantly surrounded by the hustle and bustle of noise and people, all of whom seemed as though they had something to do or somewhere to be. You could stand in Birmingham town centre and just see a swarm of people moving around you, some are shoppers, some are business workers and some are residents. I loved living in a city and always having something to do and something to see. But with everything Birmingham has to offer, peace and quiet is not one of them.

Bournemouth is so refreshing, although renowned for retirees who almost certainly occupy Bournemouth's park and beach all through the year. Its not surprising that Bournemouth has seen an influx of students. The beautiful surroundings and flourishing nightlife sees to a rise in students who want to study and party in a chilled out environment. Although it's only January and quite far off Spring Bournemouth skies would tell differently. With the sun still setting quite early and the skies being clear, this week has been one of the most perfect weeks to watch the sunset on the horizon of Bournemouth beach. The tranquil sound of the sea crashing against the shore and the surfers diving into the waves almost tricks you into believing your a million miles away from England. Luckily the bitter sea breeze quickly reminds you that although the South Coast is warmer than anywhere else in the country, tropical it is not. 

I'm looking forward to the summer months when the weather is gorgeous and I can really take advantage of having a beach on my doorstep.
