Holiday adventures in Cornwall 2023
The thing about life is that time is passing whether we like it or not and the only choice we have is how we spend that time.
In 2023 I combined getting fit and healthy while having a fantastic time on holiday in Cornwall.
It is still one of the best set of memories I made that year or any year but also one of the most active, playful and fun.
This holiday was my chance to put into practice all the learning and new habits I had been developing over the year and apply to them to a week long holiday.
We had everything we needed
The small things that we did every day made the big things easier.

Having the best holiday was a result of our daily habits. We spent our year improving our habits so that when our holiday came we were able to ensure we had the best experience possible,
Introduction
We have just come back from a wonderful holiday in the lovely village of Porthcurno at the very tip of Cornwall just a couple of miles from Lands End the most westerly point of England.
We had a fantastic time and in the same spirit as my series on our Weymouth holiday I want to share some of the joys of getting away and the value holidays add to your life and your health.
I also want to talk about how I prepared for this holiday and the benefits they brought along with the challenges that cropped up in this holiday, how we overcame them and how I will adapt my life so that this does not happen on the next holiday.
The process
Holidays are a story of thirds
