If you’ve read the piece above, this week has been about getting the old apartment ready for settlement and handing over my keys. After 7 years of being there, I was a bit nostalgic seeing it go. After all, it was the place I moved to when I just finished my speciality training, lived through […]
It’s been a few days since coming back home and most of that time has been on catching up on emails and fighting jetlag. I thought I was doing pretty well given that I slept and woke up on relatively normal times on the first day. But the next night, I couldn’t get to sleep […]
Ola from Barcelona! It’s essentially the last few days of this vacation and I’ve really enjoyed ending on a slower pace that’s given me a chance to reflect and “smell the roses”. On the note of reflecting, it’s our 1st wedding anniversary today and I can’t believe the year has flown by! It’ll be off […]
It’s the last week of Ramadan and I’ve barely started to edit any videos or do anything on the charity project. Every year, I try to raise money for the less fortunate in our community who are sleeping rough by making regular videos throughout Ramadan. This year, I simply haven’t had the time to do […]
Busy weeks seem to be the norm over here, so I’ll stop calling them “busy” unless it’s exceptionally so. This week was more…chaotic. Well, the last 2 weeks I should say. It’s been the season for weddings like last Sunday, followed by work and general lethargy that comes from Ramadan. This week was a bit […]
If you’re reading this, then you made it to the end of the email I presume. Thanks for reading all the way! You’re awesome! It’s been one of those things that’s been on the cards for a while: changing to a new email provider. The last one was awesome, but lately I found that I […]
*Apologies in advance – this was written over several sittings when I got a chance at work and may feel a bit disjointed* I’m writing this with about 25 mins to go before I break fast but I am (as always) stuck at work. Today was meant to be an easier day but alas a […]
It finally happened! We moved the last thing from the old apartment to the new. It was a bit of a bittersweet moment since the other place has been home for nearly 7 years and after all that I might not be in it anymore. Already it feels foreign given the staging and the lack […]
Since pictures are worth a thousand words and all that, lets begin with how my desk looks right now: There’s artwork that needs to hung, my calendars that need to be shipped (someone ordered one over the weekend!)…and a drill… because of course there needs to be a drill! Even with the long weekend here […]
Well, well, it’s another delayed email! The weekends have become endless lists of chores at the moment or work. This week in general has been PACKED full of things. Including…packing and moving (har har! see? had to have a pun in there!) That said, this week has also been full of interesting things including, seeing […]
