Writing. It’s something I’ve always wanted to do but either didn’t believe I could or that I had the creativity ability for. As a child I would write stories, fantasy, fairy tales, adventures, write poems, rhymes and limericks. I don’t know when it all stopped. I don’t think it was a sudden moment when it […]
Some Days I just Can’t Be Bothered
It’s just been way too cold to do anything lately. Even going to the park to see my friends is an effort. I do get excited (hmmm, my version of excitement, a couple wags of the tail, a slight alertness in the eyes, my head uplifted and a long stretch from my couching on the […]
6 Small Reasons to Love Bali in 4 Short Days
Departing from my regular busy Bali type holiday staying in the more energetic and very commercial and tourist dense Kuta ,we chose to visit a more quieter part of Bali, Sanur (on the recommendation of our neighbour who just returned from a family holiday the day I spoke to him).

I’ve run plenty of workshops before but they were all work related, stress management, career redirection, rediscovering your passion and the like. But this will be a “fun” workshop where I get to […]
A Day Trip to the Swan Valley
Gazing across the delightful country style garden under the cerulean blue sky I sat cheerfully like a child, awaiting my order of home baked scones with strawberry jam and fresh cream. The warmth of sun led me to falsely believe it’s Spring, but it’s actually the beginning of Autumn. And this was part of our […]
A Wannabe Minimalist : I’m Surrounded by Stuff
Mess surrounds me and yet in my mind I’m organised, I’m structured, I’m tidy, I’m clean but yet mess surrounds me. I’m baffled.
