musings of a twenty-something bilingual
Well, well, well. Haunted by infrequency, here I am once again. Writing escaped me for a long while but now that it’s 2022, I want to get back into it again and explore that side of my creativity. What a year 2021 was. A real test of my patience, strength, faith - the list is… Continue reading blessings and curses of what is or may be
It has been a wild few months of launching a business from scratch, literally from my bedroom. It has been endless fun, I cannot lie, but it has also been stressful at times. There have been many lessons and while I'm still learning, I thought the business building topic might make for an interesting read.… Continue reading endless spirit and lessons from building a business
Once upon a time, I wanted to be one of those Instagram bloggers. Not a full-blown influencer, but you know, a few more followers and core fashion content full of looks and style ideas. However, I started to realise this wasn’t my calling. I found it wasn’t important to me anymore, and it was becoming… Continue reading influencing with intention
It's almost 23:00 and I definitely should not be typing away in bed. Tomorrow is my second week at work (yes! my first "proper" job) and my alarm is set for 6:00, but merci divine inspiration so moving me to jot down quelques mots. First a poem, because when you discover one you like, you… Continue reading a year in preview
Boy is it good to be home. A simple walk through green space accompanied only by the wild flowers and I am reminded of the peace so freely available to us. Yesterday I chose to ignore any pride and admit momentary defeat: I called my parents and asked them to pick me up from Lancaster… Continue reading faith :: unsettled by grace

There wasn't always a time I could express myself so freely and willingly, both on paper, on screen and with the spoken word. I would freeze at the thought, sweaty palms, and crippled… Continue reading life :: language
It has taken me the whole length of writing this blog post to decide on a title. Honestly, this week turned to pot at 11pm on Tuesday night, when my phone decided to de-activate. Thinking that was not the end of the world, I plugged the phone into my laptop, following the "connect to iTunes… Continue reading life :: battlefield
It's that time of year. I have been feeling it for a while now, perhaps more than any other year, and since the 1st December has well and truly passed, it is now socially-acceptable to sing " IT'S CHRISTMAS" in the streets (debatable, but I'd be singing with you... There is something about festivities that… Continue reading life :: festive
While the cold breeze whistles its way through the crunchy Autumn leaves, my scarf whips up, flying in the air, only to nestle softly in a shallow puddle of murky rainwater. It is this kind of chaos I am experiencing of late - no matter my outfit choice, it is always blown away, quite literally,… Continue reading fashion :: chaotic
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
