Before we get started here on this page, I want to clarify something. I am not a nutcase, at least I don’t think I am. Perhaps this is open for debate. Years of self-guided research into environmental issues and a tendency to have an affinity for dystopian future-based novels has naturally led me to mentally…
I turned 29 last month and rather half expected to feel some sort of apprehension about being only 1 year away from 30. Yet, I felt next to nothing. I appreciated the confirmation that 30 is not the big scary age that many see it as and put this down to being supremely satisfied with…
Grief is strange emotion, one that we spend our lives attempting to inevitably avoid. It hits us during the best and the worst of times. Grief doesn’t care if you’re having a good week, or if you’re currently neck deep in what may turn out to be the worst time of your life. It’ll get…

A friend of mine died twelve days ago. I found out by text message several hours later. I know that this isn’t a nice way to kick off a blog post. Yet, it’s something big, that happened recently and I feel the need to write about it. Death is odd, in so many ways. It’s…
I’d be willing to wager a bet of at least two dollars that there are thousands or millions of young girls and women (and boys and men, because why discriminate?), yet to step a single toe outside their native country, who are currently daydreaming about visiting France. I say this because years ago, I was…
