So on a Monday afternoon I was feeling bored and restless, having spent my weekend doing chores and staying inside rather than enjoying the sun with friends. I don't know about you, but I am so bad at entertaining myself, I feel like all I do is get stuck in the YouTube vortex thinking I'm having fun but I get bored SO easily, it's ridiculous.

So I got my butt outside for some fresh air and to find something to do so I starting running. I ran until I reached somewhere nice and that happened to be the Botanic Gardens and I was not disappointed. It's such a lovely and peaceful place to run through, there's something so wonderful about being able to be in the middle of a forest in the middle of the city, one of the benefits of living in Welly.

It's located in Thorndon, at least the side I came through was, and surrounded by the cutest little houses and shops!
