musings of a twenty-something bilingual
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
So as I always Netflix binge, and delve into the dark world of YouTube way too often, i thought why not start a monthly 'watch' series all about what I've been watching during the month. I'm sure I'll start a 'read' and/or a 'listen' series soon enough, likely both, because I want to share more… Continue reading watch :: august
Better sorry than safe. How true is that? I'm really not one to play it safe, and I'm a little more than reckless from time to time. But I'm never scared, I trust in my path, in the Lord, in my future. I am anchored but free to wander. C'est ça que j'aime. Being reckless… Continue reading love :: trust
The splendour of a King, clothed in majesty. Let all the Earth rejoice. He wraps himself in light, And darkness tries to hide, And trembles at His voice. Live to know Psalm 73 - A psalm of Asaph Part 1 1 Surely God is good to Israel, to those who are pure in heart. 2… Continue reading faith :: envy
I have this hope. A passion. A must for life. A lack of fear. Nothing holding me back. Love never runs out. Higher than the mountains and deeper than the blue depths of the sea. Overwhelming and satisfying my soul. Breathing in life, and breathing out joy. A harmony of peace and war. A war… Continue reading life :: fureur de vivre
This topic has been popping up around me a lot lately so I feel pressed to address it, speak and mediate (or type, duh) on it. Our lives are abundant, yet we never quite seem to reach satisfactory satisfaction. As the Arctic Monkeys say “Satisfaction is a distant memory” (Ru Mine). It’s so distant, it… Continue reading life :: joy in abundance
If you know me, you'll know I'm a bit of an art freak. I absolutely adore solo art gallery trips, sketching in new sketchbooks (I usually buy a new one on every trip / gallery visit), and I love painting. I love art that much that French art is going to be 1/3 of my… Continue reading design :: interior
Tout feu, tout charme It's late on the first Monday night of June and I'm flicking through June/July's Parisian Vogue as I watch a Netflix drama on an American robbery case. I have not had as relaxed an evening as this in a while. I have soothed my skin with my Sonya Nourishing Serum by… Continue reading style :: questioned
The true you is rooted in the God of all creation. I have dived into plenty of devotionals lately, using several plans on the Bible app, as well as reading the Esther study on SheReadsTruth. I wouldn't say I've been searching or seeking out God, but with having not been able to go to church… Continue reading faith :: anointment
Determined to see more of France, I hastily reserved an Airbnb in one of France's major cities. For an entire week... Of all my time spent in France (literally since birth), I have visited Dordogne, Rouen, Normandy and Paris and of course, have lived in Libourne, therefore spent time in Bordeaux too. Oh, and Arcachon… Continue reading year abroad :: toulouse
