Back in the summer of 2019 (those good old days before Covid – remember?) I made a 30 before 30 bucket list. I was 27 years old, absolutely smitten with the man I thought I was going to marry, thriving in a job I loved, and completely unaware that in just a few months’ time the entire world would be put on time-out.

As fear spreads throughout the globe and 90% of the world’s population hunkers down for an unspecified period of watching Netflix in their pjs and longing for the outside world, my little life has suddenly been struck with a ray of pure happiness. Because last weekend I got proposed to…during lockdown. This is the story of how I got engaged.

I’ll admit, picking my Halloween pumpkin from a pumpkin patch seemed like a bizarre addition to my 30 Before 30 list. But Halloween is my favourite time of year and I’ve always wanted to visit one of those sprawling pumpkin patches you see all over Instagram at this time of year. When I lived in the UK I’d pick my pumpkin out of a plastic crate at Asda and in Bahrain the one and only pumpkin I could find fit snugly in the palm of my hand. Not exactly the most exciting pumpkin picking experiences.
So, since I’m spending Halloween stateside this year, Cody, some friends and I decided to visit the Bates Nut Farm pumpkin patch near San Diego to make my pumpkin picking dreams come true.
