WELCOME

Desperately Seeking Alix was created in 2018 during a time where I was suffering from a particularly bad period of mental health illness. During this time I decided I needed a change of scenery and impulsively decided to travel to New Zealand. This blog was originally set up so friends and family could be up to date with what I was doing but it has grown. This platform is now used to share my stories, experiences and struggles with mental health but also stories about the past, travel, photographs and lifestyle.

Highlight of the Month

I am going to share with you my highlight of the month and post on the last day of each month for the year. In the current climate it is incredibly easy to become disillusioned and think negatively, so I am hoping by sharing a small highlight, it reminds us there is a glimmer of hope in all the darkness.
