When was the last time you wore a piece of jewellery that you had not worn in a really long time? This could be years or months. Perhaps you’re saving it for a special occasion…..whenever that comes around or maybe it’s a keepsake that was gifted or passed down to you. Why not wear it…

Welcome to Day 15 of Blogmas (and December, what??). Are you a fan of Christmas flavours? The cinnamon, cloves and candied fruits? Nothing excites me more than seeing the Christmas decorations go up at the shopping centres in November. This means that the shelves will soon have panettone, stollen and fruit cake. I’m just a…

For todays Dancefloor December, I’ve chosen Despacito by Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee. It’s in Spanish (I do love learning languages through song), a mix of reggaeton and latin pop. I didn’t only chose this song because I really like it but it’s broken some records since its release in January 2017:– Held the #1…

Skin. It’s the largest organ of the body that is subjected to every day harshness such as the sun and dust. I recently watched a French lady’s skincare routine on youtube. I was shocked to see that in the winter mornings, she applied a few different moisturisers. Shocked is probably not the right word. France…

A few months ago, I changed my phone alarm to the sounds of birds chirping. I don’t set my alarm most days but it was time for no more sudden tones or songs that scare me half to death to get up. Just birds chirping. It was long overdue and I wonder why it took…

When I was thinking of ideas for Blogmas 2020, I was thinking about what I found joyful and maybe a little silly. The idea came to me almost instantly. Dancefloor December. Just like how there’s nothing better than alliteration, there’s nothing better than busting out your moves, the good, bad and 2 left feet kind.…

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about celebrating uniqueness in everyday items. Recently, it’s been the bowls and plates I eat off every day. This is certainly true in Japanese culture where presentation plays a large role during meal times as well as the array of side dishes. Different dishes seek to please the eye…

I’m putting my hand in and saying right here and now that I will be doing Blogmas for the days leading up to Christmas- every 2nd day. While traditional Blogmas features articles around the theme of Christmas, I’ve decided that the Blogmas here will instead be about spreading joy. “The healthiest response to life is…

I really like Christmas time. Here, we head into our summer holidays where we are forced to not work (for once!), Christmas lights adorn the city centre and shopping centres and I look forward to lunches complete with fresh prawns, cold ham and summer fruits. I think I’m drawn to all the lights, it’s a…
