North America, Transition, Travel
Earlier this year I took a trip to the USA. While the situation regarding trans people has deteriorated since then, I thought it would be a good idea to explain the process and my experiences for when someone more sensible is in the White House. For those new to my blog, I’ve explained the process of changing my name and …

Back in April I visited New York to fangirl over Chris Corner visit a new country and continent. Here is a belated blog of my adventure. Because of the number of photos I’m splitting each day into it’s own post. Part One Part Two Day 3: High Line, Central Park and Times Square The day started with a bit of a novelty; the …

Back in April I visited New York to fangirl over Chris Corner visit a new country and continent. Here is a belated blog of my adventure. Because of the number of photos I’m splitting each day into it’s own post. Part One can be found here. Day Two: Brooklyn Bridge and the second IAMX show. I must admit that I …

This was my big adventure for 2018, a trip to New York to see IAMX (who else). To be fair I’d been planning a trip anyway and when the band announced US dates I decided to go for it. My plan was to do tourist stuff either side of the concert. I’m going to do a separate Travelling While Trans …
Europe, Travel
This was one of my crazier ideas, a quick trip to Berlin to see IAMX on their European tour
Personal
Welcome to 2018! I have a lot of exciting things planned. Most of last year I was doing the 1p saving challenge. After emptying my coin jar I found I had enough saved to see IAMX – in New York! I may have hit full {X} Fangirl with this, but as I was planning an NY trip anyway I may …
Day Trips, Travel
I know I’m probably pushing the definition of travel somewhat with this post but sometimes it’s good to visit places on your doorstep. I think a lot of people overlook places nearby as it’s too familiar. That said it is a bit more exciting to be jetting away on a long haul flight, instead of taking a 15 minute ride …
Transition, Travel
So most of my previous trips since coming out have all been by bus, rail and sea, I did do a flight very soon after coming out by pretending to be male, but I still had yet to try air travel and the airport security process. At the moment I’m limited to domestic flying using my driving licence while I …

Earlier this month I did something I’ve wanted to do for 20 years, which was to see Placebo live. When they announced their 20th anniversary tour we talked about trying to get tickets for the show at Wembley arena but alas standing had sold out. A couple of days later my friend decided to torture herself a little by rechecking …
Transition, Travel
My recent trip to M’era Luna is probably the last time I’ll be using my male passport as it expires next year. Hopefully by then I’ll have the paperwork from the clinic to change the name and gender. This should make travelling a lot easier as my current name and photo are very much pre transition. Update: I’ve since applied …
