musings of a twenty-something bilingual
I am going through something at the moment. Truth be told, I always am, as is everyone else in the world, and those of you reading. Whether it's normality, or the depths of despair, or exam stress, or money troubles (the list is endless), part of accepting life's phases is part of healing. I am… Continue reading life :: surreal
There have been critical moments when I wanted to move forward in my life—but I held one foot on the brake. I felt such grief at the prospect of leaving behind relationships and beliefs that were once essential to me, yet these attachments kept me weighted and weary. I'm now learning the joy of letting things… Continue reading life :: forward

I find myself on Valentine's Day alone on the sofa, after having watched part of PS. I Love You with my beautiful friends. Not alone but alone, yet so content with where I am right now. My coffee and cardamom candle is burning, and the lights are on low, and I'm gently watching the ending… Continue reading love :: foundation

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
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
It is but four days now until I begin "living" in a country that's not my own. The excitement is rapidly building, and the things that I needed to sort are falling into place, as if they were designed to from the beginning. I'm already absolutely shattered from such a long, busy, yet totally freakin' awesome… Continue reading life :: impending
