That was a long writing hiatus. It was a mix of no longer wanting to write anything, my brain feeling like the above picture and the fact that my own wordpress homepage wouldn’t load in my internet browser for months. A quick google search today led me to try opening my homepage incognito and now…

I know I write a fair bit on ‘minimalism’ on here and the broad meaning that it has. I’m still not very good at it and am trying to find my way of minimalism. The move to a new country helped. I came with my 2 suitcases and 7 pairs of shoes. I came with…

At the beginning of the year, I wrote a post about the 5 things that I’m going to keep doing in 2022. I think the middle of the year is a good time to see how I’m tracking and refresh myself on all the things that I had set out to do for myself this…

From thinking of my habits that I want to keep in 2022, I started to think if there was anything that I was doing in 2021 or previously that I need to change. It’s a lot harder because habits tend to die hard and maybe I do get a little defensive if I start questioning…

First off, Happy New Year! I hope you’ve had a relaxing Christmas holiday period filled with love and good health. I’m a New Years resolutions person. I love having a fresh page of goals that I want to work towards in that year or experiences I want to try and despite not always achieving my…

This seems like such a cliche blog post but I’m going to write it anyway. After much introspection from our most recent over 100 days in lockdown and the others starting in 2020 that have occurred, I’ve rounded up my 5 lessons that I’ve learnt from being in lockdown. Possibly as a way in my…
