Wow, it feels like forever since I have contributed some words. But here I am, returned in force to hit you with some Monday mid-afternoon thoughts. Despite it being my favourite time of year this (past) week: Halloween and Bonfire Night, I've been lacking inspiration like never before.

Vagabond - a person who wanders from place to place […] The unexpected things are the best right? That surprise holiday, that surprise family visit, that surprise best-friend-on-the-doorstep, even that "shall we go to the pub?" question. We waste so much energy on planning. You get yourself all busy up in your diary, jotting down… Continue reading life :: unplanned

It took a lot for me to deal with something that could have easily broken me just… Continue reading faith :: courageous

Of late, I have been finding more and more sources of inspiration, and thus feel more and more inspired to write, and read. It's… Continue reading life :: narrative
Coucou mes amours, l’année en France est finie. Franchement, je suis prête pour revenir à mon pays natal avec l’énergie et viveur, connaissant moi-même mieux, et ayant commencé à grandir. I am so happy. This year could not have been better; I simply couldn’t have asked for more. Heck, it hasn’t been perfect but it… Continue reading year abroad :: fini
It’s a lonely, breezy Tuesday and I’m lay on what me friends call the “platans” area of the quay on Bordeaux. I can’t lie, it’s pretty ‘chill’ and the two gigantic cruise liners are fantastically majestic. After last week, which was a lot of fun I must admit, I’m knackered - and a moment to… Continue reading year abroad :: pace
Living in Bordeaux has been so much cooler than I expected. My flatmates are super sweet, give the best advice, find me funny (lol) and love a party as much as the next person. We have spent many a night gathered in the lounge, music blasting - it's so great to have genuine friends to… Continue reading year abroad :: bordeaux
