10 Lessons I Learned From Moving A Lot
Over the last few years, I happened to move flats quite a lot. It´s true that moving flats can be a nightmare and during the process, it is not the most exciting experience. However, leaving the hassle behind, there are a few lessons I learned from it, involving both mental and consumer behaviour changes that I consider quite important and useful for my mental growth.

Not because of the lack of time, but because there are many different ways to practise self-care and the best way to do them is to prepare a calendar with your favourite ones. I have prepared my own calendar with a few self-care activities for the…

My Issue With Romantic Movies
I am a huge cinephile. I love spending entire evenings watching TV shows and movies. In a previous post I mentioned a few of my favourite American movies. However, having checked my favourite films in more depth, there is a particular genre that seems to be missing… Yesterday, I was reading what movies were on at the cinema and I just discarded, almost immediately, all ‘romantic’ movies. Now, I don’t think I am a hardcore ‘unromantic’ person. I enjoy an original and interesting love story as much as the next girl. However, after watching dozens of romantic movies (mostly in my teenage years), I came to feel that they are…
