More recently – as in the last month – there’s been an even bigger shift in my daily behaviour.

Then, when morning rolls around as it inevitably does every single day, I have to hit the snooze button five times and drag myself out of bed to face the day. Despite this, I have always clung to the idea of being a night person I still stay up late reading, watching movies, talking to friends in other hemispheres, writing articles, researching travel, obsessively cleaning – you name it, I’ll start doing it as soon as the clock strikes 12 (midnight, obvs). Of course, over the years my lifestyle eventually shifted gears enough that dusk till dawn activities became – as they are for most people – more of a weekend affair and my days were pretty routine (life as a middle aged party girl just does not appeal to me). My life was a dusk till dawn affair for many years (with the odd sunny beach day thrown in for good measure) but what I didn’t realise for a very long time was that there was another type of lifestyle happening on the other side of the clock… enter the dawn till dusk brigade. I’d discovered a place where everything seemed to happen after the sun went down where you could dance till dawn or work till dawn – and for a solid period there, I even managed to combine both. When I moved to Ibiza – a place famous for attracting nocturnal creatures from all over the globe – I truly felt like I’d come home. I’ve always considered myself a night person.
