musings of a twenty-something bilingual
I've reached capacity today. I'm at the point where I could cry in public. But where I am sat, I am witnessing a lovely interaction between two strangers. The man has asked a lady to take a photo of him with Luke Jerram's Mars. He's on the floor pretending to hold it up. Wholesome tourist… Continue reading gentle rebellion when moving forwards feels like moving backwards and standing still
I'll tell you what, I really enjoy healthy debate. And sometimes its even better when you're overhearing it, rather than taking part. I'm sat today in the town centre's library cafe, working away on a job application, but I'm thoroughly - and enjoyably - distracted by the lively debate taking place on the table beside… Continue reading one morning surrounded by words
It is both a joy and a nightmare to wake up to the sound of intense birdsong outside of your window. Maybe it's the frustration of it occurring at 5 o'clock in the morning, when you'd hoped for more sleep, the repeated calls and tweets of the same clan of birds as the day before.… Continue reading morning musings to end the month of April
A summary of what has been going on in my life since January. I have missed blogging so much but I am back, baby. Time to get my head in the game and create some delicious written content for you to enjoy once again. Who wants fresh fashion posts? Or maybe more wellness and mental health posts? I am here either way and firing on all cylinders to get creative this cosy autumn. Let’s go, girl.
Hola hola, it’s me. If you didn’t already know, I don’t have much time to sit and write anymore but I miss writing. I’m now blocking out a daily half an hour to an hour for this so here we are in the midst of that time. So here are some unpublished entries for you… Continue reading Small strokes in unchartered waters: on Easter Sunday, a Spring in bloom & the need for nourishment
Well, well, well. What a while it has been. Here we are, a fresh new year full of opportunity but we’re fourteen days in and it still feels very much like 2020. Or is that just me? In truth, I have about twenty half-written posts in my drafts, semi-constructed of themes I wanted to explore,… Continue reading year ‘21 of the 21st century
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
On the 28th April, I woke up and instantly felt burnt out. Lockdown rock bottom. I am in no way affected by this virus in an overwhelming way; I'm not a key worker, I haven't had any real symptoms, and my family hasn't been affected. But I still feel hit by it. As I wrote… Continue reading on leading a simpler life at all costs
I tend to compile blog posts over several days, and the thoughts don't tend to flow as parallel as they are today. I only just published my last post, so I will schedule this for another day, but I like to add content. So know this was written on the same day, after an inspiring… Continue reading notes on nurture
I didn’t expect lockdown to be this good for my mental health. I never expected to say this either. So yes, as unexpected as it is, I have found lockdown to have given me the time needed to catch up and take stock of the past months. Last summer I was really struggling with my… Continue reading on lockdown and loving life
