Hi Reader, By the time this lands in your inbox, I'll be in Bali. The last time I was there I was single, no kids, and deep in my Kundalini yoga and meditation phase. I spent the first half of the trip in full spiritual immersion and, because I've always loved a bit of balance, the second half drinking cocktails on the beach and dancing under the stars until the early hours of the morning.

I adore Christmas, it is my most favourite time of the year and even more so when I am back in my homeland of the UK. I’ve had at least 13 Aussie Christmases, but it’s just not the same when its 30 degrees outside. I did have to laugh at the swiftness of turnover from Halloween to Christmas décor. I...

Hey Reader, I know, its not even the 1st of November and I’m writing about the run up to Christmas. The last two years haven’t really gone as expected, and last year a lot of us were unable to spend time with our loved ones over the Christmas period. However, this year is back on and the invitations are sliding in thick and fast.
