One of my new year’s resolutions this year was to do absolutely no shopping for one year. My decision to make this resolution is partly due to the realisation that I had way, WAY more clothes than I was actually wearing (thank you, moving) and partly thanks to this article by Ann Patchett.  I decided that, for one entire year, I would not buy anything that was not consumable or something that I absolutely needed.

It’s that time of year, folks! In keeping with last year’s tradition, I’m setting several goals (rather than making resolutions) for this next year. I personally find broad goals a lot easier to work towards in contrast to strict resolutions – that’s always been a big struggle for me –  so without further ado, here are my personal goals for 2016! {image via} 1.

Hi friends! First, I apologize for my ridiculously long absence. I could blame it on being busy, moving homes, travelling between continents, etc., etc., but to be honest….I just needed a break!

How’s the new year treating you so […]

Happy new year! I am one of those people who LOVES anything to do with new beginnings, fresh starts, and setting up goals to achieve. Now, the actual achievement of those goals is a whole different thing…but never mind that now. It’s definitely a cliche for bloggers to post their new year’s resolutions, but who cares? This is my blog and I want to have my resolutions on the internet for all to see (or […]
