About.

Hi, I'm Stella, A forty-something 'girl' who has gone back to school! 

Married with 2 boys, the husband and I had a mid-life crisis and spent a year living in Costa Rica with the kids, all of which was documented in my first blog Letters from Coco. A great adventure and one that I would highly recommend to anyone!

We returned to the UK in August 2014 and since then I have plucked up the courage to follow my childhood dreams of becoming a primary school teacher. I have spent the past year gaining various types of experience which I hope will be beneficial in the future.

A bit about me ... well, I like to cook, eat and drink! Subsequently, I now tell myself frequently(!) that I like to go to the gym! I have just started Spinning classes and I secretly quite enjoy it - just don't tell anyone! I also like to read, if I can stay awake long enough at the end of the day, and at the moment I am a big fan of fashion blogs for the midlifer!

Oh yes, and of course I love a bit of rubbish TV - who doesn't?
