Life update [1-Feb-2026]

Here’s what’s been happening in my little corner of the world:

  • Had the joy (and chaos) of hosting overseas visitors for the first time. Seeing our home through their eyes was humbling.
  • With so many visitors coming, we hired a venue and held our first ever formal family lunch
  • Plans for our own break were… derailed. Completely. But we managed a last-minute escape to Hong Kong over the Australia Day long weekend. It was short, it was fast, but it was deeply needed.
    • Had some of my pics featured by Ritz-Carlton HK!
    • Met the Chief Baker who personally recommended the pastries every day
    • Hiked up to Victoria’s Peak
  • Instead of a break, I opted to work through the end of year period and really REALLY felt it, HK was a welcome reprieve.
  • I realised in a moment of reflection that the universe seems to be telling me one thing over and over again: Do the thing. Smell the roses. You’re not here for long.
  • I also have a few collaborations that happened at the end of the year and new ones starting this year. Should mean I keep creative projects flowing throughout the year
