About Me

I love to eat, read, bake, look at interior blogs and books,talk, run outdoors, travel, safari, landscapes, nature, trees and flowers, lavender and Jasmin smells, going for walks in old towns and windy cobbled streets, get lost in bazaars, shop, hike, knit, decorate and re-decorate.

Two is better than one – note to self!

One is a very good number. One ice cream, one thought, one moment… but I am in a ‘two’ state of mind. Life is far kinder and funner when it is done in ‘pairs’. A solitary walk in the park is therapeutic, digging ravenously into the third raw of Oreo cookies alone is deliciously gratifying, but doing the same things along with the one you love just elevates the whole affair to a whole other level. While I am someone who loves spending time with my freewheeling self, I do love being part of a ‘pair.’ I am not saying anything new here, we all know that having a partner in this life is better than going it alone, and health experts concur - this is just a ‘note to self’ to acknowledge that life is that much more pleasurable when traveled in twos. Now you have 4 feet to take you further, 4 eyes to see beyond, 2 brains to think up more ideas, 2 hearts to carry the burdens…the bigger the range, the further the reach, and the more the possibilities. (hello world!)
