I’m writing this post from my parent’s garden in Spain. It’s way too sunny and hot even though there was a big storm just five minutes ago, but that’s Spain in September. I grew up on a small Mediterranean island, where summers are too long, and winters are just mildly cold. I usually come back once a year to show my family I’m still alive. … More Late summer diaries: Two weeks in Spain
I’m excited to turn 27, I know it might not seem like it, but I really am. I’m now part of the almost-30 group. You know the ones, they wear clothes that were fashionable three years ago and are slowly growing a collection of plants. … More Birthday post: Turning 27 and other thoughts
Today marks the day when I decided to start writing again and created this blog a year ago. My first post was 2020 was going to be my year, because, in January 2020, I did something I rarely do, I had expectations. I had exciting plans and a feeling that this year was going to be great.

I’m not much of a Valentine’s day fan, but I like to use it as an excuse to do something with my partner. Pre-covid we’d have gone out for dinner, something we rarely do because we’re both indoor people. But having something to “celebrate” forces us out of the flat, I get to wear something other than joggers, and he finally decides to shave. … More A Valentine’s Day Embroidery
It started snowing last Sunday. Out of nowhere, the city that never gets snow decided it was cold enough for a snowstorm. It snowed for more than 9 hours straight, and I’ve never been happier during this pandemic. … More Personal entry: A snow day in England

One of my New Year’s resolutions was to use less plastic, and ultimately become of those well-adjusted zero waste millennials that buy from Farmers Markets and live in a minimalistic flat and for some reason look super cute in maxi boho dresses.
