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…

How did we get here? It doesn’t seem that long ago that we were in lockdown. Heck, in my mind it’s still 2019. I’ve just over 2 weeks of work left for the year and I’m clawing at the walls ready for my break. This is the first time I’ll have more than 2 weeks…

They have finally allowed Australians to leave this island! Huzzah! Something that I have always struggled with is just how far we are from the rest of the world. Flying excitement is short lived until you realise that it’s going to be about 5 hours until you clear flying over Australia to Asia. In the…

I have a secret to share. I started learning another language. Just for fun. It wouldn’t be a lie to say that I am addicted to language learning. I don’t know what it is. Learning new combination of letters and sounds. Finding more beautiful ways to say a certain word. Maybe I like the struggle…

We are entering our 3rd month of lockdown this month. With any luck, lockdown will end at the end of this month but let’s not get our hopes up. Even if it does get extended, we are closer to the end of the tunnel. This lockdown has been long. Schools were closed this whole time…

If you had the chance to live 5 other lives, what you you do in each of them? This was the question that I came across whilst reading The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron. Dream big and have fun with this thought experiment. If you’re like me, my other 5 lives are completely different from…

I’ve written a few posts on how minimalism has positively affected my life and the direction in life I want to head towards. I think embracing this lifestyle change has obviously been positive for me but I want to touch on the hard part of minimalism. If you’re new to minimalism, I wrote a post…
