    The Tales of the Year

    Happy Belated 2024!     I hope you had a fantastic end of the year and an even better start to the new one! From my side, this New Year comes with plenty of life changes, including one more year living in the OZ and a new job, with an entirely different schedule (meant to make my life just a bit nicer than it was last year).  On top of that, it is summer in Australia! I can’t get used to this largely different weather, but I have been enjoying the sun quite a bit, and I am planning on having some surf lessons again! Aside from that, I have…

    My 2023 Best Reads Update + Watchies

    I’ve been lucky enough to find some worth-sharing books that I believe everyone could enjoy, or at the very least, appreciate. After simple research and some important spamming from Social Media, I came across a few controversial books with mixed reviews. People loved them or hated them in equal parts. Some consider them overrated, and some believed them to be too tough, even extremely “triggering”.   ANIMAL – BY LISA TADEO Few books have shocked me as greatly as this one. The writing style is so electric that, despite disliking the main character, I couldn’t help but feel an emotional connection to her. I read it so fast that I…

    I Found Some Gems

    Hi everyone, I am passing by to say: “Hello!”, and also to check in with you and ask about your life: How are you doing lately? Are you as excited about Autumn as I am? Or you would rather live in a permanent season of summer? Is it too cold where you live? In my last post, I shared some of the activities that make me feel good. All of the activities mentioned are still at the top of my list of projects to calm me down and make me feel better, but there is an important one that I didn’t include because I didn’t think it was necessary. I…

    An Awful Lot of Screen Time

    A small detail about me, I was born in 1990 and lived for the most part of my life in a big city in Spain. As a proper kid in the 90s, I spent a big part of my childhood summers watching and rewatching TV shows and movies whilst savouring strawberry sorbets. Nowadays, I try to limit myself to one episode/movie per night. A nice story before going to sleep is by far my favourite way of concluding the day. Also, it helps me get sleepy. As a consequence, not having anything interesting to watch creates a slight feeling of emptiness. I know there are great visual entertainment options out…

    Welcome To The Season Of Movie Nights

It has been a long wait since we had the opportunity to watch another season of our favourite sagas. The beginning of autumn (AKA the best season of the year) has launched new trailers for upcoming TV Shows that we can excitingly add to our list of “Things to wait for”. If you love spending your weekend evenings cooking mug cakes and drinking mulled cider immersed in a story, check out this update and let me know if I am missing something!   1- Maid  …

    The Platform, Little Fires Everywhere and Other Discoveries

    Hi everyone!   Today is one more day where I get to prepare a shortlist of the new pieces of art that I had the opportunity to discover over the last weeks.   It’s been a weird time and I believe the following weeks are still going to be far away from the reality we were used to living. The thing is, independently of how we have spent those weeks, every one of us has come to some conclusions, revelations and discoveries, either about yourself or about the future you want. I personally have been feeling pretty uninspired. The idea of going out felt dangerous and staying at home some…
