For the Love of Books
In this section of the blog I share my thoughts on books I've devoured recently. Some are from the monthly Goddess Book Group and others are from my own semi-eclectic choices.
Is there anything better than a comfy armchair, a cup of tea and a good book on a cold afternoon? I have loved reading ever since I was gifted an omnibus of The Famous Five when I was 8 years old. It was the thickest book I had ever seen and I remember thinking 'wow he must think I'm really intelligent to give me such a big book'. I had never particularly enjoyed reading until then - but with my newly inspired 'intelligence' I began the book and I was hooked.
I simply adore books, give me a few hours and a good bookshop and I'm in heaven!
Out and About
In this section of the blog I share about some of my little adventures and how the places and experiences influence me.
I love getting away from home and being somewhere different. When ever I embark on a journey I feel that familiar sense of expansion followed by thoughts about the kind of life I want and whether I'm steering my metaphorical ship in the right direction. I don't know what it is about travel but it always brings me back to myself and reminds me to check in and realign with my purpose.
My favourite getaways involve nature and places of wild beauty but I also like exploring lovely little towns, with their art galleries, museums, churches and bookshops. I have to say that I don't travel abroad very often, one reason is the impact of flying on the environment, another is my complete lack of language skills. I always find it so stressful to be in a place where I can't actually communicate and connect with the people around me.
