I’m part of a mastermind group and have been for a few years now, run by Amanda Kendle, Social Media Consultant and Travel Writer. When I received Amanda’s December 2017 newsletter it caught my attention because the title of her blog post was “18 Things I’ll Do in 2018”. I wanted to know what Amanda […]

Urban Sketching : Coode St, South Perth

Some cringe at the mention […]
Embracing the Slow
Ahhhh Life! It gets busy sometimes, more than sometimes, a lot of the time and often we don’t even realise that we are caught up in the busy-ness of doing life. It’s only when we begin to feel overwhelmed, when our mind is cluttered with the lists of have to dos, when we begin to […]
