30 before 30

I’ve heard of this concept for years and never really gave it any thought.

But this week I was just scrolling onContinueContinue reading “30 before 30”

Reflecting on 2020

Did I really live in China? Like, did that actually happen or did I dream it all up?

THE MOST DELICIOUS COOKIES EVER

This one’s a little different to my usual travel content, but given the circumstances at the moment I thought I’d branch out a little on the blog!

IT’S OKAY TO BE UNPRODUCTIVE SOMETIMES

I feel like this whole Covid-19 disaster is having a whirlwind of effects on people. It’s scary, humbling, stressful, heartbreaking, physically and mentally challenging, and so much more. It is history in the making. It’s been great over the past few weeks to see people encouraging each other online to stay positive and adapt toContinueContinue reading “IT’S OKAY TO BE UNPRODUCTIVE SOMETIMES”
