Firstly, I’m really sorry I have been absent from this corner of the internet. I am going through some personal things at the moment which has taken a toll on my health. I haven’t had the strength to do anything other than gentle exercises and walks. Even writing this seems like a daunting task, but I’m going to try. I…
January always feels like a fresh start for me… new opportunities on the horizon, setting goals, back on the exercise, and new places to tick off my travel bucket-list.
